Sontronics STC-10 Small Diaphragm Microphone
Loading...
SKU: STC10
STC-10 is a pencil-style cardioid condenser microphone. It has been designed using the same technology as Sontronics’ existing pencil condenser mics, but has purposely been introduced to create an even more affordable option in the ever-growing Sontronics range.
No Compromise in Quality
The STC-10 actually has the same basic internal architecture to the Sontronics STC-1, it's just stripped down its feature set to give producers and musicians a super affordable option.
Pencil condenser microphones are ideal for spot-miking applications or used as a stereo pair for overheads. The STC-10 is great for drums, percussion and acoustic instruments. It has also proved useful in film production work when used on a boom.
All the Basics Covered
Although the STC-10 was designed with affordability in mind, it still features a built-in attenuation switch (choose 0dB or -10dB) and a low-cut filter (75Hz) to make it extremely flexible in all situations.
The STC-10 is supplied with a simple mic clip and a foam windshield to prevent sibilance.
Recommended For:
- Acoustic guitar and guitar amps
- Solo woodwind & strings
- Percussion
- Sitar, bouzouki and banjo
- Accordion
- String, brass or wind ensemble
- Video/film & field recording
- Foley work
- In pairs for drumkit, overhead & room miking
