Key Features
The Lambden Audio M-12 Measurement Mic is a condenser microphone designed for detailed audio measurement and analysis. Its omnidirectional polar pattern captures sound across 360 degrees, helping you measure audio without relying on a narrowly focused pickup area. A full-range 20Hz–20kHz frequency response covers the audible frequency spectrum, giving you the information needed to assess sound across low, mid, and high frequencies.
With a sensitivity of -39dB ±2dB at 1kHz, the M-12 is designed to pick up the detail needed for measurement work. And its rugged metal construction helps protect it during regular use, useful when you're moving between different measurement positions or setups. A microphone clip is also included, so you have a straightforward way to position the mic for analysis.

The M-12 uses an omnidirectional polar pattern to capture sound evenly around the microphone. This 360-degree pickup makes it suited to measurement and analysis, where you need to assess the sound around a position rather than focus on one particular direction. It also gives you flexibility when placing the microphone within your setup. Instead of relying on a directional pickup pattern, you can position the M-12 at the measurement point and capture sound arriving around it. The included microphone clip provides a practical way to hold it securely while you work.
With a frequency response spanning 20Hz to 20kHz, the M-12 covers the full audible frequency range. That means you can measure low, mid, and high frequencies using one microphone, giving you a broad view of the sound you're analysing. Whether you're checking what's happening towards the bottom end or assessing higher-frequency content, the wide response keeps the complete range within reach. This makes the M-12 a straightforward tool when you need detailed frequency information without swapping between different microphones for different parts of the spectrum.
The condenser element and high sensitivity are designed to capture the detail required for measurement and analysis. The M-12 has a rated sensitivity of -39dB ±2dB (0dB = 1V/Pa at 1kHz), alongside a 200Ω output impedance. Together with its omnidirectional pickup and wide frequency response, these specifications make the microphone purpose-built for analysing sound rather than focusing on the characteristics associated with directional performance microphones. So, when you need to examine audio across a listening position, you can work with detailed measurement data across the audible range.
Measurement often means repositioning your microphone as you assess different locations. The M-12's rugged metal construction gives it a durable outer housing for regular handling, while the black finish keeps the design simple and practical. A microphone clip is supplied in the box, letting you secure the mic in position during measurements. You also receive the user manual to help you get started. With its measurement-focused design housed in a robust metal body, the M-12 keeps the setup straightforward while providing the specifications needed for detailed sound analysis.
