POLAR PATTERNS

ARCHITECT AND ENGINEER SPECIFICATIONS

The microphone shall be of the condenser type with a modular threaded 
capsule. The microphone shall be available in a cardioid polar pattern and shall 
have a 3’ or 8’ cable (depending on model) terminating in a mini-XLR female 
connector. The microphone shall have a sensitivity of 4.5 mV /Pa and a nominal 
impedance of 800 ohms at 1 kHz. The microphone shall have a maximum SPL 
level of ≥120 dB and shall be machined out of brass with a length of 25 mm and 
a capsule diameter of 10 mm. The microphone shall be the Audix ADX10.  

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE 

The ADX10 is designed to plug directly into the bodypack of an Audix  
wireless system. 

Using the ADX10 as a hard wired mic: 

You will need the APS910 or APS911 

phantom power supply. 

APS910 and APS911 phantom power adapters:

 Note that the mini-

XLRf connector at the end of the ADX10 plugs into mini-XLRm side of the 
APS910 or APS911 phantom power adapter. From there, plug a standard 
XLR-XLR microphone cable to complete the connection to the mixing board. 

 

Avoid plugging or unplugging the microphone from a PA system unless the 
channel is muted or the volume of the system turned down. Failure to do so may 
result in a loud  “popping” noise which could seriously damage the speakers in 
the PA system.

Acoustic instruments:

 For violin, the ADX10 may be attached to the collar of 

a shirt pointing out towards the body of the instrument. For guitar, the ADX10 
may be placed beneath the strings (with tape or velcro) or inside the guitar as 
an internal microphone. For udu drums, the ADX10 will fit inside the hole of the 
drum and held in place with clay. For flute see ADX10FLP.

USER TIPS 

Lavalier: 

The ADX10 can be attached to a tie, a lapel, or to fabric by means 

of the supplied alligator style clip. For best results, the microphone should be 
positioned so that the capsule of the microphone is in an upward position and 
4-6 inches from the mouth. Be sure that the round ports on the microphone 
capsule always remain exposed and do not get covered up in any way  
by clothing. 
It is recommended to use the supplied external windscreen to help reduce 
popping and breath noise.
