Cardioid version of the T2 with titanium-sputtered capsule
Experience the exceptional sound quality of the sE Electronics sE-T1 Condenser Microphone with its handcrafted 1" true-condenser titanium-sputtered capsule. This microphone boasts the same high-quality twin 1" titanium-sputtered brass capsule as its renowned predecessor, the T2.
The use of titanium in the capsule construction provides a 33 percent increase in stiffness and a weight reduction of over 300 percent compared to gold. These characteristics result in a faster transient response, making it ideal for capturing sources that require a quick attack, such as drums, cymbals, hand percussion, and upright bass. The T1 also excels in live environments, whether used as a factory matched pair for overheads or as a spot microphone for instruments.
Integrated pre-attenuation pad and low-cut filter
Equipped with a switchable pre-attenuation pad and low-cut filter, the sE-T1 lets you take control of your sound at its source. The pre-attenuation pad allows you to compensate for loud sound sources, preventing distortion and ensuring a clean signal. This feature is particularly useful when recording instruments with high sound pressure levels.
The low-cut filter helps eliminate excessive low-frequency rumble or proximity effect, allowing you to achieve a more balanced and focused sound. These integrated features provide the necessary flexibility and extended dynamic range to adapt to a variety of recording scenarios.
Ultra-durable metal housing with high-end finish
Built to withstand the rigours of professional use, the sE-T1 features a dent-proof die-cast all-metal housing. This meticulously crafted microphone is designed with durability in mind, ensuring it can handle the demands of touring professionals and years of intensive studio use. The metal switches, rugged spring steel wire mesh grille, and premium finish complete the package, showcasing the attention to detail and quality of construction that sE Electronics is known for.
