Sontronics SOLO Overview
The black Sontronics Solo is a versatile handheld microphone designed for live vocals and studio recording applications. The mic features a high-output dynamic capsule designed to deliver a rich, full sound rivaling much more expensive mics, making it well suited for use on vocals, electric guitar cabinets, snares, kick drums, and more. The supercardioid polar pattern tightly focuses audio capture on the sound source directly in front of the mic, helping to reduce feedback issues.
At just under 20 oz, the Solo is lightweight to hold and features a standard XLR output. Phantom power is not required. The Solo is designed and built in the United Kingdom; a mic clip and zippered pouch are included.
Superb precision and high output make this mic well suited for live performance, studio recording, and home use.
Solo offers a 50 Hz to 15 kHz frequency response and delivers a rich, full sound engineered to sit in the mix without requiring any EQ or postprocessing.
In addition to live vocals, the high-output mic element sounds great on kick and snare drums and regularly scores higher than mics costing substantially more in blind tests and shootouts.
The supercardioid pickup pattern offers superb off-axis rejection for less feedback.
The mic features a military-grade black anodized finish with laser engraving.
