OSIX is based on a patented microphone suspension principle (2005). The “Wire Form” technique widely used by the metal spring industry was adapted to microphone suspension isolators, which marked a breakthrough from the use of tensioned rubber bands. The industrial development of synthetic spring materials allowed the use of metal to be gradually replaced by unbreakable plastic.
An elastic suspension is by nature a compromise between the quality of the microphone hold (reduction of “wobbling”) and the minimization of handling noise (increased vibration isolation).
OSIX is thus a dedicated, non-modular suspension, offering the best compromise for indoor/outdoor use. OSIX is essentially offered in a single version for a particular microphone, unlike the E-OSIX, which in most cases is available in two versions: Soft and Hard.
OSIX 1-H is designed for microphones Neumann KM 180 series (fixed capsule) and KMA 180 modular series.
The female XLR connector is shifted forward and the insulation is adapted to allow the addition of a LEO type wind protection WITH its fur. Therefore for the use with a minimum foam’s type wind protection, the insulation will not be optimal because it is a little too rigid.
For indoor use only, the more flexible and compact suspension E-OSIX-KM-S is advised.
