Discover the exceptional audio quality and versatility of the STC-1S Small-Diaphragm Pencil Cardioid Condenser Microphone, available in a sleek silver finish and sold as a pair. These compact, high-performance microphones are designed to deliver professional-grade stereo recording, whether used individually or together. They are perfect for both studio recording and live sound applications, adapting seamlessly to a broad range of stereo miking techniques.

The STC-1S pair is meticulously matched in the laboratory as a stereo pair, ensuring consistent and harmonious audio capture. They excel in recording acoustic guitar and other stringed instruments like banjo, bouzouki, and sitar. Moreover, they are equally proficient when recording piano, string ensembles, wind or brass groups, drum kits, choirs, and backing vocals.

These pencil microphones are not just versatile but also deliver outstanding results, thanks to their three-stage pad and filter switches and the signature Sontronics super-smooth high-frequency roll-off. They consistently outperform microphones that are priced significantly higher, offering superior value for your investment.

The STC-1S microphones are designed to add a touch of class to any stereo miking application. When paired with our optional OMNI or HYPER capsules, they transform into an incredibly flexible and powerful recording tool. Ideal for capturing the nuanced sounds of acoustic guitars, pianos, backing vocals, choirs, orchestras, string, brass or wind ensembles, drum overheads, and room miking, the STC-1S Small-Diaphragm Pencil Cardioid Condenser Microphone pair is a must-have for any serious audio professional.
