The sE Electronics sE-X1R Ribbon Microphone produces exceptional audio fidelity thanks to its extended frequency range and attention to detail. The sE-X1R delivers a small high frequency bump before rolling off around 16kHz, providing extra definition and air to your recordings. Delivering the best of both world, the sE-X1r incorporates the vintage ribbon technology with modern improvements. The result is a class sounding ribbon mic with a gentle high frequency lift for added detail.
The versatile design of the sE Electronic sE-X1R makes it ideal for a range of recording applications. The higher SPL handling means you can record louder sound sources with confidence. From studio-grade vocal recordings to capturing electric guitars, the sE-X1R captures every nuance of your sound source as it was intended. The figure-8 pickup patterns captures everything from the front and the back of the microphone, making for use with in interviews and as a drum overhead.
The vintage Ribbon technology is combined with the sleek, and stylish aesthetic for the perfect blend between vintage acoustics and modern tech. The rugged design borrows mechanical elements of sE Electronics’ Voodoo Microphone to improve the sound and performance. The highly durable grille not only provides protection against sibilance and plosives, but helps to minimise any damage if dropped; protecting the internal components. Additionally the X1 R comes complete with a standard mic clip, designed for most styles of mic stands.
"It delivers useful results on just about anything. It offers good all-round performance when you need a smoother alternative to a capacitor mic. Best of all, it is very affordable." Sound on Sound
"The sE X1R captured a sense of realism on acoustic guitar that would shame many similarly priced condensers." MusicTech Magazine
