About Audix Drum Microphones
Audix was founded in 1984 in Wilsonville, Oregon, USA, and has grown into one of the world's most respected microphone manufacturers. Unlike many brands that outsource production, Audix designs and manufactures their microphones in-house in the USA — a commitment to quality control that is reflected in the consistency and reliability of every mic they produce.
The Audix D6 is perhaps their most celebrated product, and for good reason. Its VLM (Very Low Mass) diaphragm technology delivers an exceptionally fast transient response, capturing the initial attack of a kick drum with precision while its tailored frequency response — with a pronounced low-end bump and scooped midrange — produces a ready-to-mix kick drum sound that engineers love. It has become a genuine industry standard, found on riders and in studios across the globe.
The D-Series (D2, D4) extends this philosophy to toms and low-frequency instruments, with hypercardioid polar patterns that provide excellent isolation in the notoriously difficult acoustic environment of a live drum kit. The F-Series offers the same Audix engineering at a more accessible price point, making professional drum miking achievable for drummers at every level.
For drummers and engineers who want a complete solution, Audix's drum pack range — from the entry-level FP5 to the flagship DP Elite 8 — provides a cohesive, matched set of microphones designed to work together. Each pack is carefully curated to cover every position on the kit, and the professional packs include a carry case for easy transport.
