About SE Electronics T1

Under the umbrella of high-quality audio equipment, the T1 Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone stands out as a remarkable addition to our esteemed collection of true-condenser microphones. This cardioid-only variant of the versatile T2 boasts the same streamlined design, rapid transient response, and warm, rich sound, making it a top pick for diverse applications, including piano, percussion instruments, and bass cabinets.

The T1 features a meticulously handcrafted 1" true condenser cardioid capsule, identical to the one found in the T2. This twin 1" titanium-sputtered brass capsule makes the T1 a reliable performer, delivering exceptional results across a broad spectrum of sound sources. The use of titanium, which is 33% stiffer and over 300% lighter than gold, ensures a swift transient response, making it ideal for capturing attack-heavy sources like drums, cymbals, hand percussion, and upright bass, among others.

The T1 shines particularly in live settings, serving as a factory-matched pair for overheads or instrument spot mic applications. This microphone embodies the perfect blend of classic sound and modern craftsmanship. As a cardioid version of the acclaimed T2, the T1 focuses on the essential features, bringing the smooth sound character of classic condensers within your reach.

Equipped with a switchable pre-attenuation pad and bass-cut filter, the T1 effectively handles loud sources, effortlessly controlling excessive low-frequency rumble or proximity effect. This provides the necessary extended dynamic range and roll-offs needed to fine-tune your sound at its source.

Each T1 Matched-Pair undergoes rigorous testing, in-house tuning, and sonic matching to ensure a virtually identical frequency response for balanced, consistent sound. The package includes a metal mic case, stereo bar, two shockmounts, and two T1 microphones.

Constructed with utmost precision, the T1 features a dent-proof die-cast all-metal housing, metal switches, a rugged spring steel wire mesh grille, and a premium finish, making it durable and ready to withstand the rigors of touring and demanding studio use.

The unique flat, round-edged chassis design and custom suspension mount allow the mic to be centered within the shock, used flat against a drum head or guitar cab, and offer exceptional protection from low-end rumble and footfall noise.

In conclusion, the T1 Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone is a testament to superior audio technology, delivering unmatched sound quality for a wide range of applications.
