“Kicksville use Audix mics for everything - as far as condensers go, we chose the Audix SCX1 over any other small-diaphragm condenser on the market.” -Kicksville
Who is Kicksville:
There is nothing in the music industry quite like Kicksville. We're not trying to be arrogant or to pump up the hype - there's just no other way to put it. Nobody sounds like us, nobody has a live show like ours, nobody is structured like Kicksville, our Poet Laureate is one of the greatest voices of the American protest movement, and nobody has as many water towers as Kicksville. There's simply too much to Kicksville to boil down to the usual short bio, but we'll give it a shot....
Kicksville's music is the foundation on which everything else is built, but even that ranges from Malian blues to Ministry-like techno. Improvisation, painstaking programming, melodic sensibility, bizarre sound effects, and award-winning poetry are only some of the tools we use to manufacture our aural nuggets of hearty goodness. As for lyrical content, there's the political side, featuring the legendary poet and activist, John Beecher. That's offset by the pure silliness of a song like "Chemical", sung completely in gibberish. Then there's the live show: an extraordinary, continuous multimedia experience that rivals anything in the theaters or arenas today - there's really no good way to describe it. And we built it all ourselves: everything from the sound, video, and lighting design to the cables connecting it all together.
We are all accomplished musicians and songwriters with resumes a mile long, but many of us are also producers, engineers, and technicians for some of the biggest names in the business. And this is only part of what Kicksville has become: a thriving collective of musicians, artists, poets, craftsmen, writers, and activists.

Audix, a wholly owned American Corporation, was founded in
1984 in Redwood City, California. Moving to their home base in
Oregon in 1991, Audix is a shining example of what can be
achieved when a vision is fuelled by imagination, passion,
persistence, and hard work. Audix is one of the most
recognized microphone companies in the industry, consistently
raising the bar in the pro audio world with innovative, awardwinning
products.
Microphones built to last a lifetime
At a time when most companies are tending to outsource their
labor and manufacturing, Audix built a state-of-the-art
manufacturing facility with an emphasis on R & D, automation,
and CNC machining equipment. This not only enables Audix to
control the quality of the products from start to finish, it allows
for continual improvements and enhancements as new
materials and technologies become available. While the
process of capturing acoustic sound waves and converting
them to electronic impulses is very complex and difficult,
Audix always strives for the simplest and most elegant
solutions. This is apparent from the design and performance
of products such as the OM-Series, the D-Series, the VX-5,
the i-5, the Micros, and the SCX25-A.
Performance is Everything
This simple phrase captures the essence of Audix. When an
artist or engineer enters the recording studio or hits the live
stage, Audix considers our microphones to be a part of the
performance. We thank those of you who own and use our
microphones and we hope you will appreciate the dedication
and passion that goes into making your product.
hey im looking to get a mic. for recording at a reasonable price, but i want it to last long. Do you guys have any of those? if so, where can I purchase them?
thanks for the great mics! I have the 7 piece fusion series kit and a D6 and I love them. Originally got them for drums but when I put the f12 and the f15 on my JCM900 It sounded great! I've been using the f10's and f12's instead of the "almighty" sm57 on gtrs! Have I gone mad or just got some great mics at a price!
