Exceptional Warmth & Clarity
The STC-2 from Sontronics is a premium-grade and highly affordable condenser microphone. It is ideal for capturing studio-grade vocal and instrument recordings. At the heart of the microphone is a cardiod condenser capsule features a fixed polar pattern. This helps to provide the wide dynamic range, resulting in a balanced frequency response.
The unique design delivers exceptional warmth and clarity. The resulting sound is highly detailed and open at the top-end. It captures your source audio in all its colour. The gold-sputtered 1-inch capsule delivers an exceptionally balanced presence that will sit perfectly in any mix.
Versatile All-Rounder Microphone
The versatile design makes it ideal for a range of recording applications. From singers to rappers, acoustic guitars, guitar amps, piano, percussion and even podcasting; the STC-2 can do it all. The balanced sound will bring out the best from virtually any audio source. The integrated controls allow you to further cater your sound to various audio sources.
Integrated -10dB Pad and 75Hz Filter
An integrated -10dB pad allows you to cater to louder sound sources such as guitar amps or percussion. It results in added stability for a wide range of sources and room sizes. The -75Hz filter is ideal for removing unwanted low-end sound. This is also ideal for guitar amps and some percussion, but can be great for treating vocals.
Robust Design with Shockmount and Carry Case
Premium-grade components have been hand-selected to ensure maximum reliability. The high-grade circuitry and hand-seated capsule ensure you capture the best possible recording every time. The sleek finish is complimented by the integrated grille, helping to protect the capsule.
The microphone also comes complete with a range of accessories. A spider-style shockmount helps to isolate the microphone from transient noise for a clearer recording. It also includes an aluminium flightcase for storing and transporting your mic with maximum protection.
Reviews
"STC-2 is a refined performer...the high frequencies sound smooth and unhyped, the low end is similarly balanced and the mid range sounds clear and natural."
Huw Price, Music Tech Magazine
"So much better for voice acting work than my previous USB desktop mic. Very much worth the investment, even though it's so much cheaper than the other competitors."
