Sontronics STC-10

The Sontronics STC-10 is an extremely affordable small-diaphragm condenser microphone that proves professional British studio sound is accessible to every budget. It is based on the same internal architecture as Sontronics’ premium condenser microphones and has been specifically designed to offer producers and musicians an excellent introduction to the world of audio engineering – without compromising on build quality or sound quality. It is characterised by the brand’s signature gentle high-frequency roll-off and delivers a natural, silky sound that blends harmoniously into the mix, without the harshness often found in entry-level condenser microphones. This minimises the need for extensive sound processing.

What really sets the STC-10 apart in its class are the flexible controls on the microphone itself – a rarity in this price range. It features a switchable -10 dB attenuator, which allows the microphone to reproduce even loud and aggressive sound sources without distortion, as well as a 75 Hz high-pass filter that eliminates rumbling bass and stage vibrations. Thanks to its focused, tight cardioid polar pattern, the microphone captures the finest details whilst simultaneously filtering out unwanted background noise.

The incredibly versatile Sontronics STC-10 is the perfect microphone for virtually any application in the studio or on stage. It delivers outstanding results when recording acoustic guitars and plucked instruments, strings, and woodwind and brass instruments. It is also an excellent choice for overhead miking of drums and percussion. The microphone comes complete with a robust standard microphone stand clamp and a high-density foam windscreen that protects against plosives and air turbulence. The value for money is unbeatable.
