Antlion Audio XLR Power Converter

The Antlion XLR Power Converter is the most efficient way to use a ModMic with a mixer, audio interface, or other 48v XLR power source. The converter decreases the operating voltage to a safe level for all 5v microphones. When paired with a ModMic 5, you get the full quality you would expect from an XLR mic without the bulk and weight. Antlion's built-in Proximity Compensator recognizes the way voices change as a microphone nears the source and adjusts the signal accordingly. This tuning delivers the most natural sounding voice regardless of proximity. It's an ideal choice for streaming and casting.

Proximity Compensator

The XLR Power Converter has a custom tuned low-end response to compensate for the proximity effect of head-mounted boom microphones. With the Modmic 5, the microphone is placed very close to the vocal source when mounted on headphones, resulting in a corresponding increase in low-frequency response. The XLR Power Converter compensates for this boost, creating a natural response that is pleasing to the ear, as well as extending headroom and allowing for a lower noise floor in practical applications.
