Description
Ultra-small, high performance dynamic harmonica microphone.
The FireBall™ is designed for harmonicas (both diatonic and chromatic) and beatbox. Clear, accurate and capable of handling SPLs in excess of 140 dB without distortion, the FireBall™ is ideally suited for both live stage and studio recording applications.
The FireBall™ mic has a smooth, uniform frequency response of 50 Hz - 16 kHz, and a cardioid pickup pattern for isolation and feedback control. It is lightweight, compact and comfortable to hold. The FireBall™ is manufactured with a precision machined aluminum body, steel mesh grill and unique three stage marbled anodized finish.
Because the FireBall™ is a low impedance microphone, when using with a guitar amplifier, a quality, low-high impedance transformer (see T50k) is required.
Designed, machined, assembled and test by Audix in the USA.
