sE Electronics - X1 R
A rugged ribbon for any purposeThe second addition to the X1 Series, the X1 R brings the magic of traditional ribbon mics into the modern age with a tough construction that can handle any SPL. This is a ribbon you can take on the road. The sE Electronics X1 R is suited to a variety of recording applications, including guitar cabs, overhead drums, brass, woodwind, strings, commercial broadcast and voice-over. Enclosed by top-grade Neodymium magnets boasts some of the latest ribbon microphone technologies. sE have combined their traditional ribbon technology with some of the mechanical elements of our own VR1/VR2 microphone HF (High Frequency) extension technology to bring you a classic sounding ribbon mic with a gentle HF lift.
Drawing on some of the technologies in the VR1 & VR2 ribbon mics, the X1 R is a vintage-modern hybrid that provides all the inherent smoothness of a hand-crafted ribbon mic, but with more versatility, durability, and ease of use than the delicate ribbons of yesteryear. Unlike the cheaply constructed bodies of some other affordable microphones, the X1 R's all-metal housing provides efficient rejection of any electrical interference and noise - and the high-quality finish ensures a great look for years to come.
