sE Electronics X1 Prize Draw Summary 2012 (Feb, March, April)
From February 2012: "At the tail end of 2011, a group of producers, artists, engineers and press from all over the UK attended blind listening tests of four of the biggest condenser mic brands in the world (Neumann, AKG, Rode and sE Electronics). The aim, to strip away consumer preconceptions created with decades of brand marketing, and compare mics based solely on their performance, their build quality and their feature set. Find out how the sE X1, Rode NT1A, Neumann TLM 102 and APG P220 compared and answer a question relating to this mic shoot out (answer is here in the blind listening test results) and you could win a sE Electronics X1 microphone.
We'll be randomly picking winners every month from the virtual hat for 6 months i.e. February to July and therefore giving away at least 6 sE X1 microphones.
We will ask a question relating to the blind listening test on the first day of each month. If you answer any of the questions correctly, you are entered into the prize draw. If you choose to answer a question every month, you then improve your odds of winning as you will have more tickets in the virtual hat. That said, if you only enter once, you are still entered into all remaining sE X1 prize draws."
From April 2012: "It's going to be slightly different this month as we know many of you have participated in both the February and March sE X1 prize draws (thank you) and we guess you would probably prefer not to read the blind listening test at Sphere Studios again this April (have a month off) so we have another related article for you to read and subsequently find the answer to an easy peasy question.
Furthermore, we're giving away two sE X1 microphones this month. Maybe we should change the title of this comp from "Win One of Six sE X1 Mics" to something else as we're only in month three (of six) and are giving away 5 sE X1 already.
April Question - What are the missing words in the following quote from Producer Simon Franglen (Avatar, Madonna, Titanic). Answer to be found here
“…in my opinion, the only thing you should be concerned about in a microphone is the XXXXX"
e-mail your answer to marketing@seelectronics.com
This is a global competition. Good luck."
