Audix ADX 10 FLP

ADX10FLP

Miniaturized condenser flute microphone

OVERVIEW

The ADX10FLP is characterized with a uniformly controlled cardioid polar pattern, helping to isolate the area or section being miked from other instruments or vocals on stage. With a smooth and accurate frequency range of 50 Hz - 18 kHz, the ADX10FLP is lightweight, low profile and will provide natural sound with exceptional transient response.

The ADX10FLP, specifically for use with a standard flute, includes a clip that attaches to the headstock of a flute, an 8’ cable terminating to a mini XLR-f connector and a phantom power adapter (APS911). Other model versions include the ADX10FL for use with the Audix RAD360 wireless system.

Manufactured to high standards and tight tolerances, the ADX10FLP features a modular threaded capsule, machined brass body with matte black finish, high quality shielded microphone cable and a variety of optional accessories.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Plug the mini XLR at the end of a mic cable into the APS911 phantom power adapter. The ADX10FLP requires phantom power and will NOT operate without phantom power voltage (minimum of 5 – 52 Volts) which is available on most professional mic preamps and mixing devices. If phantom power is not available on your equipment, use the Audix APS911, a supplied accessory with the ADX10FLP model that allows for battery operation. Avoid plugging or unplugging the microphone from a PA system unless the channel is muted or the system volume is turned down. Failure to do so may result in a loud ‘popping’ noise which could seriously damage the speakers in the PA system.

The ADX10FLP is manufactured to exacting specs with roadworthy construction. However, the capsule is highly sensitive and should be handled with care. Avoid extreme temperatures and be sure to store your microphone in the pouch provided when not in use. Moisture of any kind can adversely affect the sound and performance of your microphone.

USER TIPS

With the ‘crown’ of the flute detached, simply place the ‘O-ring’ portion of the ADX10FLP mic clip at the end of the ‘head joint’ and reattach the crown to the head joint.

The APS 911 phantom/battery power supply: The mini XLRf connector at the end of the ADX10FL plugs directly into the mini XLRm connector on the APS911 power adapter. Next, plug a standard XLR-XLR microphone cable to complete the connection from the APS911 to the mixing board. The APS911 has the option to be used in phantom power mode or battery mode. If there is no phantom power available on the mixing console or equipment being used to amplify your signal, use the battery mode to power up the mic. If further reduction of bass frequencies or plosives is needed, the APS911 is equipped with a base roll-off filter.
