Flagg Audio | Panic Mic

Introducing the Panic Mic from Flagg Audio. It's a boutique specialty microphone built from a CB transmitter for use on stage and in studio. The Panic Mic gives you lo-fi vintage tone with a 1/4" output that allow you to run your vocals through stompboxes. It does this with a push-to-talk feature and a tight pickup pattern meaning that even more distortion can be added to the vocal chain without feedback. The Panic Mic is a must-have for vocalists looking to stand out and bend ears.

How do you use the Panic Mic live?
A: You can run it through a guitar/keyboard amp alone (which is often loud enough) or mic that amp. DI boxes and amp outputs also work well to get the sound to the front of the house.

How does the Panic Mic differ from the Flagg Mic?
A: The tone is slightly cleaner, it uses a 1/4" output with a transformer instead of a transformerless XLR, the pickup pattern is slightly tighter and it can function as push-to-talk. This mic is somewhat less rugged than the Flagg Mic and comes in at $30 cheaper.

Why doesn't the Panic Mic need power?
A: Some mics you may see elsewhere have either carbon or electret elements that require phantom power or a battery to run. In designing I found that these elements either didn't reject feedback enough to be used live, weren't tough enough to rely on, or didn't give the correct "vintage tone" I was looking for. Instead I went with dynamic elements that require no external power to produce correct volume levels.

Are Panic Mics made from used materials?
A: No. Panic Mics are made from 100% new materials.

What types of payments do you accept?
A: We accept Credit/Debit and Paypal. This keeps both sides of the transaction safe and secure.
