Rode S1, Wired Condenser Microphone
The S1 is a professional quality microphone, specifically designed for live vocal performance.
The S1 employs a true condenser transducer for optimal sound reproduction. The frequency response is tailored to ensure clear vocals while reducing handling noise. The unidirectional (super-cardioid) pick-up pattern limits background noise and reduces the susceptibility to feedback.
The five-piece mesh head provides filtering of breath, wind, and plosive noise whilst not interfering with the S1's sensitivity or frequency response.
The hardened mesh head also protects the precision condenser transducer from airborne contaminants and possible impact during performance and transit. The ergonomic design of the S1 also makes it extremely comfortable to hold and control during performance.
The S1 requires a P48V phantom supply and will work with most professional mixing consoles that incorporate this standard. The high-level output of the S1 is electronically balanced to reduce loss over long cable runs with the additional benefit of high-level rejection of electromagnetic interference.
