| The VX5 is a professional vocal condenser microphone designed for a
wide variety of live, studio and broadcast applications. With an
ability to duplicate studio quality sound on stage, the VX5 is known
for its smooth and accurate frequency response, resistance to feedback
and ability to handle very high sound pressure levels without
distortion.
The VX5 is characterized with a tight and uniformly controlled supercardioid polar
pattern which helps to isolate the vocals from the rest of the
instruments on stage. With a wide frequency range of 40 Hz - 16.5 kHz,
the VX5 employs a VLM™ (Very Low Mass) diaphragm for a very clean and
natural sound with exceptional transient response.
Other
features include a 14 mm gold vapor diaphragm, an acoustically ported
steel mesh grill with multi-stage pop filter and a -10 dB pad and bass
roll- off filter. The VX5 will handle sound pressure levels in excess
of 140 dB (with pad and roll-off engaged) and will provide over 20 dB
of ambient noise rejection on live stages.
In addition to vocal
applications, the VX5 is ideally suited to capture acoustic instruments
such as guitar, woodwinds, brass, percussion toys, drum overheads,
hi-hat, and piano. It is an excellent choice for home studio recording.
The VX5 is well balanced, comfortable to hold, durable, and manufactured with very
high standards and tight tolerances. Roadworthy construction includes
precision die cast zinc alloy, black e-coat finish, laser etched model
and serial number, gold plated XLR connector, and a heavy duty nylon
clip. The VX5 requires 9 - 52 volts phantom power.
