Large-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone

The Sontronics STC-2 employs a one-inch, gold-sputtered capsule and is ideally suited for recording vocals, spoken word and acoustic instruments. The evenly balanced frequency response delivers a defined low-end and a very detailed, open top-end, accurately capturing your subject in all its colours.

The STC-2 has a very smooth high-frequency roll-off, ensuring a natural presence to your recordings. In addition, its low-cut filter and -10dB pad switches will help you get the best from your recording, making this microphone a truly flexible all-round tool for your studio. A ‘spider’suspension mount is provided, which helps to isolate the sensitive microphone from any transient noise travelling through the mic stand. The Sontronics STC-2 and its shockmount are supplied in a smart aluminium flightcase.

Released at NAMM 2007 is the new STC-2 Black, a sleek new version of the ever-popular STC-2 microphone, with a satin black finish, stylish gold lettering but the same unmistakable smooth sound.
