{"product_id":"audix-adx-51-158246","title":"ADX 51","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAn Audix \"pencil condenser\" designed for instruments, from stage to studio\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a compact pre-polarized condenser microphone, the ADX 51 fits within Audix's approach: offering robust microphones that are easy to position and versatile enough to cover multiple contexts (live, recording, broadcast). Its uniformly controlled cardioid pattern and extended frequency response (40 Hz to 18 kHz) make it a consistent choice when looking for a mic capable of remaining clear in a mix, even in noisy environments. Without multiplying complex settings, it relies on features directly useful in the field: attenuator and low-cut filter, two essentials for securing a quick and clean recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor whom and for what uses?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Audix ADX 51 is aimed at musicians, sound engineers, and content creators who want a reliable instrument microphone capable of working both in \u003cstrong\u003eclose miking\u003c\/strong\u003e (for more attack and isolation) and \u003cstrong\u003edistant miking\u003c\/strong\u003e (for more air and image). It is particularly comfortable on \u003cstrong\u003eacoustic instruments\u003c\/strong\u003e: acoustic guitar, mandolin, violin and viola, percussion, piano, as well as as an \u003cstrong\u003eoverhead mic\u003c\/strong\u003e to capture a drum kit or percussion section with definition. In broadcast and video capture, its clear signature facilitates intelligibility and presence, while remaining controllable thanks to the low-cut filter and pad.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey features: control, precision, and level handling\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCardioid directivity: easier isolation and placement\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ADX 51's cardioid pattern is designed to focus capture on the instrument and reduce off-axis sources. On stage, this helps limit bleed from monitors, neighboring amps, or other instruments. In the studio, it allows easier shaping of the balance between direct sound and room ambiance by simply adjusting distance and placement angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e-10 dB pad: more headroom on loud sources\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the instrument or source produces high sound pressure levels, the -10 dB attenuator provides extra headroom before saturation of the input stages (preamps, audio interface, console). This is a concrete advantage for percussion, certain highly projecting instruments, or close placements where a more \"present\" and punchy sound is desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e150 Hz low-cut filter: cleaner low end\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 150 Hz low-cut filter helps reduce rumble, stage vibrations, handling noise, and proximity effect excess. The result: a cleaner low-frequency spectrum that is easier to integrate into a mix, especially on acoustic guitar, overheads, and instruments where clarity is preserved without unnecessarily boosting low-mids.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCapsule and diaphragm: precision and consistency\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its \u003cstrong\u003eBlack Electret GV Diaphragm\u003c\/strong\u003e capsule and a \u003cstrong\u003e14 mm gold vapor diaphragm\u003c\/strong\u003e, the ADX 51 aims for precise capture, with good definition of attacks and an articulate rendering. Its specified frequency response of 40 Hz to 18 kHz covers the essential spectrum of acoustic instruments while maintaining clear detail reproduction (string brightness, transient articulation, presence).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eBuild quality: a microphone built to last\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe precisely machined brass body, steel mesh grille, and durable black finish reflect a clearly professional orientation. The gold-plated XLR connector contributes to a reliable connection over time, an important point when the microphone is regularly mounted, dismounted, and transported. To complete the package, a protective pouch, clip, and windscreen are included to be ready for use immediately in both live and studio settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response -
