What sets the Sontronics STC-2 Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone apart is its professional-grade quality and versatility. Since its introduction in 2005, this high-quality microphone has been a top choice among musicians, producers, and studios worldwide.
The STC-2 is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone, equipped with a gold-sputtered 1-inch capsule and a fixed cardioid pattern. This design is ideally suited for recording a wide range of audio, from sung and spoken vocals to acoustic instruments. The large diaphragm captures a full-bodied, natural sound, while the cardioid pattern ensures sound is picked up from a specific direction, minimizing background noise for a clearer, more precise recording.
The STC-2's evenly balanced frequency response delivers a defined low-end and a very detailed, open top-end, accurately capturing your subject in all its nuances. Its characteristic smooth roll-off in the high frequencies ensures an extremely natural presence, providing digital-friendly results that blend seamlessly into the mix every time.
This durable microphone is not only reliable but also versatile. It features a low-cut filter switch and an attenuation or pad switch (-10dB cut), providing flexibility for recording a wide range of sources in various room sizes. The hand-seated capsule and carefully crafted electronics help you achieve the best from every recording, making the STC-2 a truly flexible all-round tool for your studio.
The STC-2 is available in a brushed nickel or sleek black finish and comes complete with a spider-style shockmount, which helps to isolate the sensitive microphone from any transient noise travelling through the mic stand. It is supplied in a foam-lined aluminium flightcase for added protection.
Whether you're recording sung and spoken vocals, acoustic guitar, piano, woodwind and strings, percussion and drumkit, or even podcasting, the Sontronics STC-2 Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone is a reliable and versatile choice for all your audio recording needs.
