Audix Introduces Next Series of Fusion Drum Packs

Audix has introduced the next series of Fusion mic packages. The first package to hit the market is the FP5, designed for miking a 5-piece kit for both live and studio applications. The FP5 contains a completely new series of dynamic microphones which is designed, assembled, and tested by Audix in the USA. The FP5 contains five microphones: the F6 for kick drum, the F5 for snare, and three F2's for rack toms and floor tom. Each mic is provided with the snap-to-fit DCLIP mic stand adapter, and the entire system is packaged in a heavy duty custom aluminum carrying case. Audix Co-founder Cliff Castle states "The Fusion packs, which we introduced seven years ago, are extremely popular as a cost effective miking solution for the entry level customer. We took the Fusions to the next level and the FP5 pack will exceed all expectations. You're going to be surprised when you experience the sound of these mics; pro level performance at very affordable pricing. Perfect timing for today's market." The FP5 carries an MSRP of $559.
