The Samson Q
MIC
is a new professional dynamic
mic specially designed for use as a vocal mic in live
performance. Manufactured with the highest quality
components, the Q
MIC
’s distinctive multi-stage wind-
screen and filter reduces pops, sibilance and on-stage
noise, and a midrange presence peak ensures an
exceptionally clear, articulate sound. The Q
MIC
also
features a humbucking voice coil to eliminate magnet-
ic field interference and a multi-axis shock-mounted
mic element that reduces handling noise. Its tight
hypercardioid pattern ensures maximum feedback
rejection while delivering a strong, crisp signal from
the audio source directly in front of the mic capsule.
The Q
MIC
is also particularly well-suited for use with
Samson wireless systems.
• Full range frequency response with a midrange
“presence” peak at 2 kHz for optimum
reproduction of vocals and exceptionally clear,
crisp sound.
• Tight hypercardioid polar pattern minimizes
feedback problems.
• Lightweight aluminum humbucking voice coil
eliminates magnetic field interference and
provides true hum rejection at the source.
• High energy rare earth Neodymium element
delivers high output.
• Vertical porting removes standing wave
distortion.
• Mic element enclosed in multi-axis shock-mount,
enabling 360° X-Y axis movement and reduction
of handling noise.
• Gold-plated XLR connector.
• Triple-plated multi-stage windscreen and noise
filter for the removal of pops, sibilance and
onstage noise.
• Silicon “anti-dent” ring protects windscreen.
• Neoprene transformer cover reduces microphonics.
• Rugged, die-cast zinc casing.
• Foam-lined carrying case and mic-clip included.

ARCHITECT’S & ENGINEER’S
SPECIFICATION
The microphone shall be of a dynamic type
with hypercardioid polar pattern. The micro-
phone shall provide its output on a gold-plated
male XLR-type connector. Output impedance
shall be 150 ohms.
The microphone shall be constructed of a
zinc casing and shall contain a triple-plated
multi-stage windscreen and noise filter for the
removal of pops, sibilance and onstage noise, an
aluminum humbucking voice coil for the elimi-
nation of magnetic field interference and true
hum rejection, a Neoprene transformer cover
for the reduction of microphonics, a high-out-
put Neodymium element, and a multi-axis
shock-mount to minimize handling noise. The
microphone shall have frequency response
from 20 Hz to 18.5 kHz, sensitivity of -47 dBV at
94 dB SPL, and a maximum SPL of 137 dB.
Dimensions shall be 2.25
″ (57 mm) head length,
4.5
″ (114.2 mm) main unit length and 6.75″
(172 mm) total length. Weight shall be 8.7 oz.
(250 g). The microphone shall carry a three-
year warranty.
The microphone shall be a SAMSON Q
MIC
.
