View Full DescriptionTrue high-definition audio
Designed around the principles of the Nyquist theory, the Sony ECM-100U Uni-directional microphone expands on the traditional construction of microphones by capturing a widely expanded frequency range from 20Hz - 50kHz. This offers you a much wide slope to the top-range of human hearing capacity at 20kHz to produce a smooth and silky top end, free from anti-aliasing filtering, intermodulation distortion, quantisation noise and more. This expanded frequency response works in tandem with expanded sampling rates possible in the digital recording realm to yield greater frequency ranges and a higher dynamic range.
Ultra-high definition sound
Presenting a beautiful and full-bodied soundscape with extended frequency response, the ECM-100U is every studio engineers dream microphone. Multi-faceted, it's not just a typical pencil condenser microphone that will get pigeonholed to traditional orchestral instruments, the Sony ECM-100U performs exceptionally on just about any sound source you throw at it. The accuracy in capturing the dynamic range and intensity of your playing cannot be understated, capturing in immense detail the intricacies and subtleties of your playing. Try using the ECM-100U on your electric guitar cabinet for an ultra-high-definition sound that jumps right out of the speakers with energy and liveliness.
A result of the meticulous design and construction means that the Sony ECM-100U Uni-directional Electret Condenser Microphone performs exceptionally well with stereo imaging when used as a pair. To record wide and spacious instruments such as a grand piano or quartet of violins, when used as a pair, the ECM-100U will shine bright and highlight every nuance in your performance without missing any drop in volume thanks to the astonishing 124 dB or more of dynamic range. You can now mix in your tracks easier than ever without fighting against lost notes in a dense and expansive mix!
A simply stunning openness in sound, the Sony ECM-100U is a true high-definition microphone, capable of capturing ultrasonic frequencies up to 50kHz, allowing you a much brighter top end without suffering from harsh peaks or compensated boosted gain stages that can cause unwanted harmonic distortion.
