Samson Q8x Professional Dynamic Vocal Microphone

   The Q8x is the hand-held dynamic microphone that out performs industry standard microphones in every category. The Q8x is ideal for live sound reinforcement because of its feedback rejection and high output gain. The heart of this performance comes from the Neodymium multi-axis shock-mounted element and super cardioid pick up pattern. Vocals sound huge and instrument micing is crystal clear. The Q8x is also a versatile tool in the recording studio, a workhorse microphone perfect for any professional application.

   Why So Superior?

  The Q8x's superior reproduction stems from the linear frequency response of its neodymium dynamic mic element. The response is flat with a slight lift around 8kHz. This makes fitting vocals in live mixes extremely easy with minimal EQ adjustments. The mic also features a supercardioid pickup pattern with excellent off-axis rejection. This enables the Q8x to pick up all the nuances of any performance with maximum volume and clarity, while reducing feedback and unwanted signals not originating in front of the mic. In addition, a high saturation level audio transformer further rejects hum and noise.

   New and Improved

  With a newly-designed rugged die-cast body and hardened steel grille, along with an improved pneumatic capsule shockmount for minimizing handling noise, the Q8x provides reliable performance in even the most demanding environments.
