Customer Review Summary
Audix TM-1 is a reliable and rugged microphone that holds up well over time, exhibiting no significant changes in response since purchase. It is particularly effective for tuning and monitoring audio systems, as well as being a solid choice for reference work.
The omni-directional pattern and flat frequency response make it an excellent option for room miking, providing a unique perspective on the acoustic environment. Users have found it performs admirably even when compared to more expensive brands like Earthworks and B&K, maintaining a linear frequency response even at high sound pressure levels.
However, there are some considerations regarding the calibration adapter, which can be seen as overpriced. It is advisable to opt for the TM-1 Plus version if calibration is a necessity, as it includes necessary accessories that enhance usability.
While the TM-1 excels in measurement contexts, it falls short for quieter audio recording due to some noise issues. It performs adequately in louder sessions but may not be the best choice for ambient or delicate recordings without the necessary calibration files.
In conclusion, the Audix TM-1 is a solid measurement microphone with a flat response and high SPL tolerance, making it ideal for professional applications, though potential buyers should consider their specific needs regarding calibration and noise performance.
