Whenever I saw an OM2 setup for live events I participated in, I always felt like I had to do less (as a singer) with OM2 and I hear myself a lot more from the stage monitors without feedback. The clear top end with added boost to 150-200HZ range worked really well for my voice as a lead singer. The tonal color captured in this review video was no surprise to me. I understand it's not the most flat/balanced sounding mic and really geared towards singing voice. AKG D5 sounded very smooth as well and V70d sounded very exquisite. One thing I don't like about OM2 is the handling noise it picks up and I think it was covered well in this video. Thank you for another great review video.
I’m familiar with the Audix microphones only because I know Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam loves these mics. They’ve seen use both live and in the studio when recording their albums. Which makes perfect sense actually, because a $100 dynamic mic with a somewhat gritty upper end that can withstand abuse and constant usage for decades is perfect for the kind of gritty dirty grungy rock sound of a band like Pearl Jam as opposed to an opulent and pristine sound of a Neumann condenser.
@@Podcastage yes, I find the 58 to be darker, as you do. My other used mic bargain pick is the PVM-45. It actually fooled the Audix guys when I was in Portland, they thought it was their i5.
OM2s are useful in live sound for taming feedback in challenging environments. Obviously it's better to get the basics right like proper speaker positioning, but OM2s are a possible solution if you don't have full control over the configuration of the room. More recently, I've found that the sE V7 serves this purpose almost as well while having other strengths too.
I've settled on OM7 for small clubs for singing heavy metal (e.g. sound engineer nightmare). But it worked as a charm. Before Audix I tried every popular microphone from Shure to Blue and I suffered a lot.
Definitely better used deals on OM2s than SM-57s and SM-58s too. I rarely see used 57s and 58s for less than $60 unless they're fake or beat to hell. I found a used OM2 in excellent condition for under $40 with taxes at Guitar Center. Haven't given it a full test yet, but if I find any uses for it other than live vocals, I might pick up more in the future. It's very solid/heavy and seems well built.
I can see this mic working extremely well for aggressive male vocals. Not sure why I've never tried one. Still prefer the e835 for spoken word, and because the off-axis rejection is the best I've seen on a stage.
I liked the Om3 slightly better on his voice. The sE V7 sounds more prominent in the bass range and less prominent in the high mids. Hard to tell if it's too much just hearing the voice, but depending on the voice type, this could mudden the sound and prevent the vocalist from cutting through the mix.
I used OM7 for heavy metal in small clubs previously and now I use it as a comms mic for online gaming so that no one can hear my red switches :) It's the best mic for live loud music singing on small stages, I swear.
The Om7 sounds very good and has the second highest off-axis rejection of any microphone I know*, but you have to keep the distance and angle to the mouth VERY consistent. For me having a quite dynamic voice it's just too difficult adjusting the distance to the Om7 during singing, so I went for the Om6. The sound is similar, just a bit less harshness at 4-8 k, less bass and the off-axis rejection is still very good. *#1 is the audix Om5
@@fidrewe99 Well, I have to keep it pressed against my lips to be heard over the band in small venues, so no problem with distance consistency :D But for softer music I guess I would also preferred my other favourites like EV or Blue 100\200. I just never liked Shure.
I own: Audix OM2, Shure SM58 and Sennheiser e835. The OM2 was my top-pick, but I think the AKG D5 might actually sound better -- more inner detail in my opinion.
@@tyluild I didn't understand your question very well... If you mean that the "mics bleed" in the sense of failing because they are in the same room, I can say that it doesn't. If it's not exactly that, then reply me again :)
@@andreperovano8487 oh wow thank you for answering I didn't mean bleed I meant more say me and someone are 1 foot apart will my voice be picked up by their mic and vice versa or is this good for even a short distance people close to each other? Thank you
@@tyluild Well, i didn't get to test it, but i think at this distance the mic would pick up the sound... i know it's great talking up close, however if you want a mic that you can talk further away from it, try one from Audio Technica, specifically a condenser... I don't think a dynamic could do this job
@@andreperovano8487 Ah no so the plan is I'm at one end of the table they are at the other end and we both are using these mics so there would be two of them I'm just hoping that when I talk their mic doesn't pic up my sound and vice-versa we are happy being up close to the mic it's just ensuring both our mics are not picking up the others voice hence why it needs to be dynamic
I used to use one for live with a technical death metal band. Worked great. I also had a beta 57. The sound men loved me....... super cardioid = way better for live because it blocks out external noise better such as monitors....
Well, I'm the Lead trumpet player in a LOUD rock band with a 5-piece horn section looking for a fixed-stand boom mic with a more modern sound with a big presence and treble boost and a more neutral mid section and a hypercardioid polar pattern with the null areas at 150 degrees, so... What I find is that a common foamy wind screen does GREAT for eliminating bell clangs, reducing mute knocks and plosives in my backup vocals, and taking the burrs off the crunchy. It's not as harsh as the SM57 or other similar "instrument mics", but still gives me everything I want when I want to really burn a high note. Typical trumpet SPL on this kind of music at 3"-6" away from the mic is going to be 124-128 dB, and this mic can handle it very well. Now, for my electric guitar cab with heavy distortion, I prefer my Audix i5 to this or my Shure SM57's. But I actually found the OM-2 by trying to close-mic my old acoustic beach guitar - again, beefed up the track much better than my Shure SM57/58's, and sounded better coming through the big 15" PA speakers. The OM-2 is better for a really strong soprano voice, especially outdoors where you're more likely to have a really harsh PA, and/or in front of a loud band.
Always a joy watching your videos dude, these Audix are very nice microphones and have a solid body and the cartridge inner wind shield is pretty unusual too, you get a very clean sound with these beauties and I own a OM-3 which you do not see any reviews on here
8db boost on the 58 was overkill. Made it louder than Audix. I don't think it needed compensation. Otherwise great comparison. Once again the E835 shines.
I’ve been looking at the ND76. I have the OM2. The ND76 is my fav in this review. The Sm58 maybe a tie with the OM2. Thanks for featuring a bunch of mics in this review
It does not sounds bad. For high pitch voices will sound good, with that classic V shape frequency response. And it is awsesome that is made here.., proof that good stuff with good prices can be done here. I'm guessing the U67 review vid will be christmas day vid gift 🤞😁
Hey Bandrew Great videos always very informative. I'm wondering what is the best mic for recording in an untreated environment? I don't care about proximity effect, as I can just eq that later, so I could get very close to record. Does this caveat make certain mics less effective due to capsule placement?
Audix’ directivity is almost supernatural. In fact, that’s the pattern they offer - supernatural. Not wild about the built in EQ but if you can deal with it, the pattern is literally beyond belief. It’s their signature.
It’s not as regular as it should be. It’s supposed to be monthly. But this year threw that right in the garbage. Not consistent. And I’m trying to make a shift from channel analysis to more informative.
For now, I don't care about dynamic mics, but I'm giving this vid a like purely for the fact that Bandrew is a fellow fan of Dr. Wolfula! Bring back drive-ins!
Listening with JBL 104 monitors. AKG D5 seems to give the most balanced output, closely followed by the e835 which is a little brighter than the D5 due to a wee bit lesser lows, and then the Lewitt. The rest seems very similar sounding, almost nasal and muddy. All mics are really good, it just really depends on how it matches the user's voice. Thanks for the content. :-)
Bandrew, this is your first Audix? I would have thought you already tried the Audix SCX1-HC. Then again, I guess that is more of a location sound mic, so I suppose that makes sense.
Nice video! I don't know if you'll ever get to read this comment, but I'll give it a try. I can't decide between the Blue Yeti and the Yeti X. I've read a lot of issues with the USB port on the regular Yeti, and since here in Brazil those Mics are pretty expensive I'm a bit concern. I'll be using it both PC and Android phone for lectures and acoustic guitar recording. I've already saw your videos about them, but a final opinion would be great and I think you are the best one right now to help me with that. So, what do you think? Greetings from Brazil!
If people are unsure and they have about $100, just get the SM58.. I bought a few dented ones from ebay to mic the drums of our old band and it was still absolutely amazing. Then I sold it for the same price i bought it... It's like a Toyota for cars. It's boring, but it's just amazing for the price.
My favorite part of comparison test is what Bandrew says during ad libs. Also test proves similarity of $100 microphones. btw my favorite mic is now U67 ai Thanks Bandrew
I love my v7 but have you tried the V7 BFG signature? I'd love to see you try and trash the Billy Gibbons sticker that comes with it. Hell, dang and darned. I challenge you!
I would like to hear the mics with equal or no boost at all. I guess there is a good reason for boosting some and not others. I want a very sensitive mic with strong presence. Which one is the most sensitive in intelligibility frequencies/ Thanks for great video ! - Bob
Hi the greatest mic reviewer (in my (and many others, I can bet) opinion), recently I have been looking for a mic for teleconference purposes. I have been looking for a mic less than $200 with maximum possible noise cancellation/rejection (I have a noisy child in another room and my PC and AC noises are annoying) when my distance from the mic is expected to be 2 to 3 feet. Typical condenser mics should be OK for my distance (from the mic) but not for noise. I do not have a dynamic mic and although it seems that they might be good for noise but not for the distance (in general). A note: I prefer a mic with a better bass response but that priority is in 3rd position. Do you have some suggestions or recommendations? Thank you.
I'm honestly shocked you're still on the HD 600s. I'm assuming you stopped using the MDR-7506s because you were going insane from not being able to hear yourself when recording.
If I were to loop sounds live on stage, would the OM2 help with its noise rejection? What about the SM58? I'm using a Sennheiser e815s and it catches a lot of noise wall bounce.
I am trying to start a live stream but I am currently working in a public art studio. An obnoxiously loud ac/heat unit and duct hang above where I sit. I am unable alter or rearrange my seating placement, and do not have access to turning the unit off. Could you recommend a microphone in the $100 - $200 range that will best reduce the sound (I would be shook if anything could eliminate it entirely). To elaborate on the sound location, the unit hangs slightly behind me and the duct stretches over and all the way to the other side of the room, making it impossible to place completely in a microphones dead zone.
unfortunately this one is not Made in the usa. It’s only Assembled in the USA. So there’s significantly more work done in the states as opposed to one Made in China. The Made in the USA tag is extremely difficult to give. Earthworks mics are Made in the USA. I believe AEA mics are made in the USA as well. And I’m not 100% certain but I believe that the Electro Voice RE20 is made in the USA, or at least used to.
I just reached around and grabbed my NTi-Audio test equipment which includes the NT-M4260 Class 2 measurement microphone. NTi-Audio is a Liechtenstein based company.

@@peterblackmore7560 more than just that. I own a small communication agency. We have a UA-cam channel. (won't link to it since this is Bendrew's channel, not mine).

LOL...the next stage after forgetting how to clap is forgetting how to blink. Just sayin'... No offense to those who may be red headed, but all bets are off if you are a stepchild. Awesome, man.
The handling noise, boom and other resonant tests scare me away from the OM2 a bit. It sounded great, as did the other mics compared with it except the AKG D5. That was a harsh high frequency buzzer to my ears.

I've been using these for 20 years for live stage vocals. They are as tough as SM-57s, so I buy them used these days.
They definitely don’t have the same following so I imagine that used you get a great deal, and they give a much clearer sound compared to the 58.

EV ND76 with voice. SE V7 for everything else.
Great review. The red headed child is only a problem if mommy or daddy doesn't have red hair and also if it is a girl, when she turns 16.
I really like microphones made or assembled in Liechtenstein. If I ever discover one I'll let you know.
I just reached around and grabbed my NTi-Audio test equipment which includes the NT-M4260 Class 2 measurement microphone. NTi-Audio is a Liechtenstein based company.
@@peterblackmore7560 whahahahaa! Cheers Peter. Me and my big mouth. You got me. It's probably a tax thing, but still. Great!!
Best reply I ever got on UA-cam.
@@EdoDijkgraaf The tax thing always comes up with that country for a good reason! Strangely though, the key people at NTi are intense acousticians. It is quite possible that they were always residents there. Glad that I gave you a good laugh!!
@@peterblackmore7560 more than just that. I own a small communication agency. We have a UA-cam channel. (won't link to it since this is Bendrew's channel, not mine). The channel is there for Belgian and Dutch entrepreneurs who want to create content. Julian Krause inspired me to do a video on measurement and correction. I think the NTI story has to be in it.
what is doobl;y do and where can i find it????
Can you review some PZMs?
Should have included the XM 8500 in that comparison.
I think you're full of shit and funny guy!Your reviews are class.You are doing a good job here, Sir
Box throw of the Year.
Beyerdynamic was the clear winner - as usual by the way .... and it´s made in Germany ..... also by the way .....

"Assembled in USA" is by no means the same as "Made in USA". Lawyer stuff, that.
Hello brother I need a review about AKG p5s super cordiod microphone..
POV - you’re that sexy Neutrix connector with the yellow sleeve
What about the audix om 7
I love one😊😊😊🎉
LOL...the next stage after forgetting how to clap is forgetting how to blink. Just sayin'... No offense to those who may be red headed, but all bets are off if you are a stepchild. Awesome, man.
Why doesn't this video have ads
I got an ad straight up before the video lol
The handling noise, boom and other resonant tests scare me away from the OM2 a bit. It sounded great, as did the other mics compared with it except the AKG D5. That was a harsh high frequency buzzer to my ears.
