sE X1R Ribbon Microphone Loan Service

Tuesday 22nd November 2011

sE X1R Ribbon Microphone News: The sE X1R is a brand new passive ribbon microphone from sE Electronics. The X1R is the second family member of the sE X1 series. As with all sE microphones, the capsule is hand-crafted and we encourage anyone who wishes to evaluate the sEX1R ribbon mic to contact sE directly, your local distributor (if you are outside the UK) or your local sE dealer, and ask about our Free Loan Service.

The real beauty of ribbons is that they are uniquely realistic and natural in their recording of source material. Where condensers sound very ‘in your face’, ribbons sound natural, like the performer is actually in the room with you. So, for anything acoustic… like jazz, classical, string parts, drum overheads, folk, or acoustic guitars on less ‘poppy’ records, they are perfect. Try the sE X1R.
