About this listing
Audix VX5 Professional Vocal Condenser Microphone
The Audix VX5 is a compact, hand-held condenser microphone engineered for professional vocal capture in both studio and live environments. Its supercardioid polar pattern delivers exceptional feedback rejection and ambient noise isolation, while the presence-peaked character flatters most vocal ranges with clarity and presence. The rugged die-cast zinc housing and included pop filter make this a dependable tool for recording sessions and stage performance alike.
Audio Performance
The VX5 captures vocal detail across a 40 Hz to 16.5 kHz frequency range, with a tight supercardioid pattern that provides over 20 dB of ambient noise rejection—essential for live sound and untreated recording spaces. A recessed -10 dB pad and bass roll-off give you control over proximity effect and loud sources, while the microphone handles SPLs exceeding 140 dB, making it suitable for powerful vocals and dynamic performances.
Design & Build
At just 227 grams and 181 mm in length, the VX5 balances professional durability with practical ergonomics. The die-cast zinc housing with black E-coat finish houses a pre-polarized electret capsule with a 14 mm gold-sputtered diaphragm, while the acoustically ported steel mesh grille integrates a multi-stage pop filter for reduced plosives.
