The Audix A131 is a large-diaphragm studio condenser microphone designed for exceptional performance in a variety of applications including vocals, choir, piano, acoustic instruments, and overhead miking. With its sleek, compact design, the A131 is also an excellent choice for podcasting, studio recording, professional audio production, and live sound.
Built with a precision-machined aluminum body, the A131 features a 33 mm fixed-charge capsule and a gold-sputtered diaphragm, delivering a wide and natural frequency response. Its consistent cardioid polar pattern captures performance detail with accuracy while minimizing ambient room noise and off-axis sound.
A dual-layer steel mesh grille combined with an ultra-thin acoustic foam layer provides superior protection against plosives—ideal for vocal and spoken-word use. Inside, the capsule’s open-air mounting system ensures clean, transparent audio with minimal coloration. Proprietary impedance control between the capsule and internal circuitry guarantees stable performance in varying environments.
The integrated shock mount effectively isolates the capsule from handling and mechanical noise, eliminating the need for an external shock mount and keeping the setup streamlined.
Note: Requires 48–52V phantom power. For optimal performance, use with a high-quality mic preamp and professional-grade microphone cable.
