  MSRP: $129 Cardioid Dynamic Microphone

Audix F10

Description

Part of Audix’ Fusion series, the F10 “dynamic instrument microphone” is a compact, low-cost dynamic intended for use on percussion, drums, and guitar cabinet.

The “tailored” frequency response shows aggressive peaks (+5dB) at 80-90 Hz and 4000-5000 Hz.

The body is zinc alloy, finished in black. The mic is supplied in a soft pouch and carries a five-year warranty.

The body has an integrated mic clip, but is compatible with the company’s DFLEX rim clamp (from the D1, D2, D4 series) as well as the DCLAMP (tension-rod mount) and DVICE (spring-loaded rim clamp), all available separately.

See also Audix’ D-series microphones, which are functionally similar to the Fusion drum mics. The D2 and D4 have a “Very Low Mass” diaphragm that makes them quicker (better transient response) and more accurate. Also, the D series mics are hypercardioid, which might offer superior isolation.

The Audix F10 is also known as: F-10.
