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 3 has been designed for the SENNHEISER MKH 20/40/50 microphone series.
In compromise outdoor/outdoor, it’s possible to adapt all the foam windshields normally used with that microphone or the LEO-25 , with or without fur.
In accordance to the important microphone low frequency sensitivity (MKH 40/50), the softness of the suspension is maximum and it’s unadvised to use longer or heavier microphones.
