sE Electronics T1 – Large-diaphragm Condenser Microphone

The little brother of the renowned T2
Classic sound meets modern craftsmanship in its simplest form; we proudly introduce the little brother of the renowned T2 - meet the T1 large-diaphragm cardioid true-condenser microphone! With cardioid being the most widely used polar pattern in both live and studio applications, the T1 prioritizes the features you truly need, bringing the smooth sound character of classic condenser microphones within reach.

Featuring the same handcrafted dual 1" titanium-sputtered brass capsule as the T2 - the T1 is a true workhorse delivering incredible results on a wide variety of sources. Titanium is 33% stiffer and over 300% lighter than gold, resulting in faster transient response, perfect for capturing sources that thrive on attack, such as drums, cymbals, hand percussion, and double bass, to name a few applications. The T1 is particularly excellent in live environments as a factory-matched pair for overheads or instrument spot microphone applications.

Handcrafted with the highest attention to detail, the T1 is built with an impact-resistant cast all-metal housing, metal switches, a robust spring-steel wire mesh grille, and a premium finish. The T1 is road-ready, capable of handling the daily life of touring professionals and years of demanding studio use.

With integrated attenuation pads and low-cut filters, the T1 compensates for loud sources, making it easy to control excessive low-frequency rumble or proximity effect, with the necessary extended dynamic range and roll-offs to shape your sound at the source.

The T1: Titanium makes the difference.

Pure and simple. No frills. Just great sound.
