A versatile new addition the the Q
MIC
“family” of
microphones, the Q2 employs a tight unidirectional
cardioid pattern to keep feedback to an absolute
minimum in high SPL vocal and instrument miking
situations. Its high energy Neodymium element pro-
vides maximum gain before feedback along with
superior sound quality and is enclosed on a special
multi-axis shock-mount chassis to reduce handling
noise. Featuring very clear and articulate sound, the
Q2 also incorporates a transformerless design for
extended low frequency response without distortion
and aluminum humbucking voice coil for quieter,
hum-free performance. It is equipped with a switch-
able 10 dB pad for use with high SPL sources and a
12 dB per octave high pass filter to reduce rumble
and other unwanted low end sounds. Manufactured
with the highest quality components, th Q2, like the
popular Qmic, includes a highly distinctive wind-
screen / noise filter that greatly reduces wind noise,
“pops” and excessive sibilance. Additional features
include a gold-plated XLR connector and a special
“Euro” adapter that allows the mic to be easily
mounted onto metric microphone stands.
• High-energy, rare earth Neodymium element
delivers high output and exceptional sound
quality.
• Tight cardioid polar pattern reduces feedback.
• Transformerless design enables mic to reproduce
extended low frequencies with minimal distortion.
• Lightweight aluminum humbucking voice coil
rejects hum and preserves extended range of
high frequencies.
• Vertical porting helps remove standing wave
distortion.
• Switchable 10 dB pad allows use with high SPL
sources such as drums and amplified instruments.
• Switchable 12 dB per octave high pass filter
eliminates stage rumble.
• Triple-plated multi-stage windscreen for quiet
performance.
• Multi-axis shock-mount mic element minimizes
handling noise.
• Sturdy zinc-casting and a silicone “anti dent”
provides additional windscreen protection.
• Foam-lined carry case, mic clip and Euro-metric
mic stand adapter.
•Gold-plated balanced XLR connector.

ARCHITECT’S & ENGINEER’S
SPECIFICATION
The microphone shall be of a dynamic type
with cardioid polar pattern. The microphone
shall provide its output on a gold-plated male
XLR-type connector. Output impedance shall be
600 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 be equipped with a
switchable 10 dB pad for use with high SPL
sources and a 12 dB per octave high pass filter to
reduce rumble and other unwanted low end
sounds. The microphone shall have frequency
response from 50 Hz to 15 kHz, sensitivity of -
71 dBV at 94 dB SPL, and a maximum SPL of
137 dB. Dimensions shall be 1.8″(46 mm) head
length, 4.2″(107 mm) main unit length and 6″
(152 mm) total length. Weight shall be 10.5 oz.
(300 g). The microphone shall carry a three-
year warranty.
The microphone shall be a SAMSON Q2.
