OQAN QMD20 VOIZ - Dynamic vocal microphone with zinc alloy body
The OQAN QMD20 VOIZ is a robust and reliable solution for those seeking professional-quality voice recording without an exorbitant investment. Meticulously designed to excel in the vocal frequency range, this handheld dynamic microphone is a versatile tool that adapts to both the energy of a live stage performance and the clarity required for conferences and presentations.
Built to last, the QMD20 VOIZ immediately stands out thanks to its high-strength zinc alloy chassis, giving it a professional weight and feel, a far cry from the plasticky feel of other entry-level models. Its black metal grille not only provides a sleek and understated look under lights, but also protects the internal earpiece from bumps and accidental drops, common in intensive daily use.
Its electronics are optimized to deliver a crisp, clear sound. Thanks to its unidirectional polar pattern, the microphone focuses on capturing the main sound source (your voice) while attenuating noise from the sides and rear. This is crucial for maintaining a clean mix in noisy environments or for avoiding dreaded feedback when used near stage monitors.
This model is a true "all-in-one". OQAN has included all the necessary accessories in the package to get you working right away: a 5-meter XLR-XLR cable that guarantees balanced and interference-free signal transmission, a standard microphone stand clamp, and a practical carrying case to protect your equipment when you're on the go from gig to gig.
Main features
-
Vocal optimization: Its frequency response of 70Hz to 15kHz is specifically tuned to enhance speech intelligibility and singing warmth, cutting out unnecessary sub-bass frequencies that often muddy the sound.
-
"Road-Ready" Construction: The zinc alloy body and reinforced metal grille ensure exceptional durability, withstanding the demanding treatment of tours, rehearsals, and frequent setups.
-
Total control on stage: It incorporates a silent and accessible sliding On/Off switch, allowing the speaker or singer to mute the microphone instantly when not in use.

Benefits for the user
The OQAN QMD20 VOIZ is ideal for users who need immediate reliability. As a dynamic microphone, it doesn't require phantom power (+48V), so you can connect it directly to any mixing console, powered speaker, or audio interface with a microphone input and start recording. Its low impedance (600 Ohms) ensures the signal remains strong and clear even when using longer cables on large stages.
Use cases
-
Vocalists and Backing Vocalists: Perfect for band rehearsals and performances in small and medium-sized venues where the vocals need to cut through the mix.
-
Lectures and Public Speaking: Its clarity in the mid-range ensures that every word of the speech reaches the audience clearly.
-
Educational institutions and Karaoke: Thanks to its shock resistance, it is an excellent option for schools, academies or karaoke rooms where the equipment passes through many hands.
-
Event presentations: Its understated black design fits perfectly into corporate or formal environments.
