PRESS RELEASE
Audix Chosen for Yamaha Marimba Miking System
July 22, 2009
Advertisement Audix microphones have been chosen to accompany the new Yamaha Marimba Miking System. Originally designed by Randall May, the system allows the microphones to be positioned within and parallel to the resonator chambers of the marimba, while the microphone slide rail pivots to enhance isolation and quality of sound. The system provides effortless, instant positioning of the microphones while still allowing them to slide on the rail of the marimba for preferred mic placement and uniform octave levels. For greater adjustment, the microphones can also be independently pivoted to a desired angle. Randall May of Randall May International decided to use the D2 model microphone from Audix stating, "It was important to stay with a dynamic mic because of durability. And I felt the D2's rugged construction, performance, and frequency response, combined with its cost effectiveness, fit right into the window of what we were looking for. Audix was a natural choice since we also use the D4 and D6 with our internal drum miking systems, and they are outstanding mics." Marching artists Bluecoats, Madison Scouts, Carolina Crown, and The Colts are some of the artists currently using the new miking system. This product is distributed exclusively by Yamaha Corporation of America.  (Click for close-up)Recent Audix headlines
