Designed for Video and Audio Professionals, the Azden SGM-2X comes with 2 barrels that effectively change the pick-up pattern of the microphone. With the short barrel the SGM-2X works as a sensitive omni-directional microphone. By attaching the supplied long barrel the SGM-2X becomes a directional supercardioid shotgun microphone. In either configuration the SGM-2X exhibits a wide frequency response and low noise levels.

Taking its place as one of the premier shotgun microphones around, the SGM-2X offers performance and features which exceed those of mics selling for hundreds of dollars more.

Azden SGM-2X Double-Barrel Shotgun Microphone Key Features

Two Barrels

Two microphone barrels and appropriate windscreens are supplied with the SGM-2X. The 8-1/8" SHORT barrel has a wide omni-directional pick-up pattern. Attaching the LONG barrel to the SHORT barrel creates a 15-3/4" microphone with a super-cardioid pick-up pattern. This narrow or directional pattern rejects side and back noise and lets you focus in on your subject.

Low Noise (-70dB), Wide Bandwidth (40Hz-20kHz)

Balanced Low Impedance (680ohm) XLR Output

The SGM-2X has a balanced XLR output and will work in any low impedance microphone input of 1K ohm or less. This includes balanced XLR or unbalanced ¼" and 3.5mm microphone inputs.

Switchable Low-Cut Filter

The SGM-2X has a 3-position power switch: OFF, ON and LOW CUT. Switch to the LOW CUT position to reduce low frequencies and increase clarity.

Integrated Shockmount

The SGM-2X is supplied with a shock-mount holder. This holder can be used on a camera shoe or on a microphone stand.

Connects To All Azden Plug-in Transmitters To Become A Wireless Shotgun Mic
