Audix MB5050HC 50in MicroBoom Miniaturized Hypercardioid Condenser M1250B Microphone
The MicroBoom is produced in three lengths: 24, 50 and 84 inches. The boom is a carbon fiber rod compatible with any of The Micros. Lightweight, able to attach to any microphone stand (MICROPHONE STAND IS NOT INCLUDED), the MicroBoom, is a problem solver for many hard-to-reach miking applications including choir, live theater and orchestra. The MB5050 comes with a MICROBOOM50 with a M1250BHC Hypercardioid Mic.
The MicroBoom can be used with any of the microphones in The Micros series providing a broad selection of pick-up patterns, output levels and frequency responses. A high quality shielded cable is used internally to insure the cleanest audio signal path between the microphone and the bottom of the boom. The stand adapter offers total control over the angle, rotation and position of the carbon fiber rod by way of a flexible metal gooseneck. The MicroBoom provides an ultra-clean, professional and elegant appearance on stage while providing exceptional performance and portability.
