Become a master of capturing rich, resonant bass and kick tones with the SD-5 Dynamic Supercardioid Microphone, complete with the innovative Hemisphere Mic Modeling Plug-in. This high-performance microphone is designed to effortlessly capture the depth and power of your kick drums, bass amps, and any other instruments that demand extended low-end frequencies.
The SD-5 is a classic dynamic microphone, boasting a supercardioid polar pattern and high SPL handling. It's equipped with the best-in-class Hemisphere mic modeling, ensuring professional-grade sound quality, regardless of your recording environment.
This dynamic modeling microphone is powered by the same advanced technology used in our award-winning UA Sphere microphones. The included Hemisphere Mic Collection software offers the unique ability to emulate the authentic sound of renowned dynamic microphones from industry-leading brands like Shure, Audix, and AKG.
The SD-5 and the accompanying Hemisphere Mic Collection software are designed to work seamlessly with or without UA hardware. They offer more than just subtle EQ curves, providing precise control over filter, proximity, and axis settings - a pioneering feature in the industry. Simply set up the SD-5 and use the plug-in to find the perfect "sweet spot" for your kick drum or bass amp.
The supercardioid polar pattern of the SD-5 has been meticulously fine-tuned for optimal performance on stage or in the studio. Its ultra-high SPL capability and exceptional isolation ensure that you capture the full range of your instrument's sound - from the thump and tone to the transients - without any interference from other sources.
The SD-5 is more than just a microphone; it's a professional tool with a vintage aesthetic. Its all-metal construction, retro styling, and hand-selected capsules make it a reliable partner for capturing those crucial low-end frequencies, promising decades of solid performance.
The package includes a range of Hemisphere Mic Models, each designed to emulate a specific classic microphone. From the DN-6, ideal for tight, syncopated Metal genres, to the DN-52, perfect for capturing extended low frequencies, and the DN-112, a favorite for Hip-Hop and Rock records. The DN-SUB model even replicates a studio trick for capturing extended sub frequencies, making it easier than ever to add weight to your kick drums and bass cabinets with just a single mic and the Hemisphere plug-in.
Please note that the Hemisphere mic modeling plug-in is available upon product registration.
