Sony ECM100N Omni-Directional Hi-Res studio pencil mic

Sony ECM100N Omni-Directional Hi-Res studio pencil mic

Overview

The Sony ECM-100N is an Omni-directional electret condenser microphone ideal for instrument recording in studio and compatible with High-Resolution Audio. Equipped with a newly developed microphone capsule, the ECM-100U delivers flat and wide frequency response of 20 to 50,000 Hz and picks up the raw sound echoing in space.

Features

Excellent Sound Quality
Newly developed small diaphragm microphone capsule with Omni-directional characteristics realizes clear and transparent sound in ambient and instrument recording.

Flat and Wide Frequency Response
The ECM-100N microphone has flat and wide frequency response (20 Hz to 50kHz) and provides superb sound reproduction quality for High-Resolution Audio.

Noise Elimination Construction
Two-part metallic body structure originally employed in the C-800G microphone prevents acoustic vibration resulting in low noise and clear sound.

Low-Cut Filter
Low-Cut filter switch helps eliminate low-frequency noise and proximity effect.

Pad Switch
An -10dB pad switch on the ECM-100N microphone provides added headroom and minimizes distortion caused by transient peaks.
