The Sontronics STC-1S is a laboratory-tested, hand-matched stereo pair of small-diaphragm condenser microphones designed for accurate, natural stereo recording. With a wide frequency response of 25Hz–20kHz and a smooth presence lift, it captures every detail with clarity and balance. Ideal for acoustic instruments, choirs, drum overheads, and orchestral recording, the STC-1S delivers professional results comparable to far more expensive pencil microphones. Designed in Britain, this versatile stereo set ensures a clean, realistic soundstage for both studio and live environments.
Each microphone features a 3-stage high-pass filter (Off, 75Hz, 150Hz) and a 3-stage pad (0dB, -10dB, -20dB), allowing precise control over low-frequency rumble and high-SPL sources up to 137dB. This makes the STC-1S perfect for everything from delicate string ensembles to loud percussion and drum kits. The low self-noise of just 16dB (A-weighted) ensures clean recordings with excellent detail, even in quiet passages, making it suitable for professional recording, broadcast, and field use.
The STC-1S excels across a wide range of recording scenarios, including acoustic guitars, violins, pianos, choirs, woodwinds, brass, room ambience, podcasts, and voiceovers. Its cardioid capsules deliver focused sound capture, while optional interchangeable omnidirectional and hypercardioid capsules add further flexibility. Whether using XY, ORTF, or spaced stereo techniques, these microphones provide a balanced stereo image with natural depth. From worship spaces and jazz clubs to orchestral halls and outdoor field recordings, the STC-1S adapts effortlessly.
