The SC-1 microphone brings legendary studio sound to your recordings through cutting-edge mic modelling technology that captures the authentic character of history's most celebrated condensers. This professional-grade condenser microphone handles everything from delicate vocals to acoustic instruments, and even high-volume guitar cabinets thanks to its impressive SPL capabilities and ultra-linear circuitry that maintains pristine clarity across the entire frequency spectrum.
Powered by the same award-winning technology found in UA Sphere modelling microphones, the included Hemisphere plug-in provides real-time access to authentic recreations of essential condensers from renowned manufacturers like Neumann, Sony, and AKG. You can run this modelling in real-time with Apollo interfaces or natively within your DAW, giving you unprecedented flexibility in shaping your sound both during recording and post-production through intuitive filter, proximity, and axis controls.
Built with a sleek, contemporary design and robust construction, the SC-1 is engineered for decades of reliable studio use across any recording scenario. The Hemisphere plug-in becomes available upon product registration, with UAD and Apollo real-time functionality launching in early November 2023.
