X1S VOCAL PACK  SE ELECTRONICS 

 Microphone, Pop Filter, Shockmount and Cable 

The X1S is a refined version of sE's best-selling X1, tuned for advanced performance. With the highest dynamic range and SPL handling capabilities in its class, along with expanded features that dramatically increase its flexibility, the X1 S has been improved in every way relative to the original, even in terms of its affordability..

Just like its predecessor, the X1 S utilizes a hand-made condenser capsule, meticulously constructed and tuned in sE’s capsule room by technicians with decades of experience. This results in a capsule built like the world’s finest musical instruments, and a capsule truly up to the challenge of recording them.

Where the original X1 was powerful, the redesigned electronics of the X1 S take its performance to a whole new level, giving it the highest dynamic range in its class. Its internal redesign also allows for improved sensitivity, dramatically increased SPL handling (up to 160dB!), and a huge reduction in self-noise.

Attenuation
The -10 dB and -20 dB pad switches provide extended dynamic range, enabling a wide range of applications and close-mic techniques for even the loudest instruments...think super-heavy electric guitars, fortissimo brass instruments, and heavy-footed kick drums.

Low-cut Filters
Selectable at either 80Hz or 160Hz, these two filters help eliminate low-frequency rumble or footfall noise, as well as help compensate for excessive bass (proximity effect) with close-mic techniques.

Chassis
Unlike the cheaply constructed bodies of some entry-level microphones, the X1 S's all-metal chassis provides efficient rejection of any electrical interference and noise. The high-quality finish ensures a great look for years to come. A gold-plated XLR connector ensures loss-free, reliable signal connection.

HANDCRAFTED X1 S CONDENSER MICROPHONE

sE's best-selling X1 S microphone features a handcrafted gold-sputtered large-diaphragm condenser capsule, a cardioid polar pattern, two switchable low-cut filters, and two switchable attenuation pads. Its high-performance electronics produce a beautiful signal with incredibly low noise, and its robust all-metal construction and premium finish ensure efficient rejection of any electrical interference and noise.

SHOCK MOUNT, POP FILTER, AND CABLE

sE's Isolation Pack features a clever quick-lock shock mount that securely holds your X1 S microphone in place with a single turn of a knob. The metal pop filter is vertically adjustable to suit your preference, and the whole thing helps to isolate your mic from physical vibration in the room and from the floor. The X1 S Vocal Pack also includes a high-quality 3-meter XLR cable, so you just need to add your mic pre or interface and you're ready to go.
