Behringer XM8500 Dynamic Vocal Microphone

The Behringer ULTRAVOICE XM8500 is a dynamic cardioid vocal microphone that promises to enhance the appeal of your songs. This microphone boasts a substantial weight and delivers a beautiful, full-bodied sound, making your voice truly shine on stage or in the studio.

The unidirectional nature of the XM8500 ensures that it will not pick up unwanted background noise, even when you're moving around the speaker. Its internal structure is designed to prevent vibrations from being transferred to the sound-absorbing mechanism, ensuring a clean and uninterrupted signal.

We recommend pairing this microphone with a high-quality sound mixer, such as the one we source for the Chorus team. The preamp in this mixer is compatible with the XM8500 and delivers exceptional audio quality, ensuring that your recordings and live performances are of the highest caliber.

The XM8500 is a versatile tool that can capture clear, detailed sounds from a wide range of instruments. Its frequency response extends from 15 Hz to 15 kHz, effectively cutting out the booming bass and piercing high-end frequencies that can sometimes overwhelm a recording.

In terms of technical specifications, the XM8500 is a dynamic microphone with a cardioid polar pattern. This means it is highly directional, focusing on the sound source directly in front of it and rejecting unwanted noise from the sides and rear. Its sensitivity is rated at -70 dB, and its impedance is 150 ohms, making it compatible with a wide range of audio equipment.

The microphone features a professional-grade XLR 3-pin connector, with a gold-plated finish for optimal signal transfer. Its dimensions are approximately 6.5 inches (165 mm) in length, and it weighs around 8.5 ounces (240 g), giving it a substantial and durable feel.

The XM8500 comes equipped with a carrying case, a microphone holder, and a 3/8" to 5/8" conversion plug, making it easy to set up and transport. Whether you're a professional vocalist, a recording artist, or a passionate hobbyist, the Behringer ULTRAVOICE XM8500 offers the performance and versatility you need to take your audio productions to new heights.
