Audix - SCX25AMP

For any stereo recording of your acoustic instrument, it is particularly important to choose a matched microphone solution in order to optimise the coherence of the signal response, which is essential for a faithful stereo image. Whether the signals are on- or off-axis, they offer remarkable phase coherence and minimal proximity effect. When two of these microphones are paired, this consistency is maximised for a balanced, natural stereo image.
