Overview
The Audix D6X is a high-performance dynamic microphone tailored for kick drums, bass cabinets, toms, percussion, and even creative miking applications. Building on the acclaimed D6 lineage, the D6X introduces a recessed 3-position filter switch—Deep, Balanced, and Natural—allowing you to sculpt tone on the fly. Its VLM (Very Low Mass) diaphragm ensures punchy low-end and sharp transients, while the cardioid pattern provides excellent off-axis rejection. Constructed with a rugged aluminum body and steel mesh grille, this mic is built for both stage and studio. Ideal for engineers seeking a versatile, mix-ready mic with premium build quality.
