Sony Professional ECM-100U, Uni-directional Electret Condenser Microphone

The Sony Professional ECM-100U is a Uni-directional electret condenser microphone ideal for instrument recording in the studio and compatible with High-Resolution Audio. The Sony Professional ECM-100U is equipped with a newly developed microphone capsule, ECM-100U delivers a flat and wide frequency response of 20 to 50,000 Hz and picks up the raw sound of the instrument’s original features.

Sony Professional ECM-100U Main Features

• Excellent Sound Quality: Newly developed small diaphragm microphone capsule with Uni-directional characteristics delivers the authentic sound of instruments with extremely low distortion.
• Noise Elimination Construction: The two-part metallic body structure originally employed in the C-800G microphone prevents acoustic vibration, resulting in low noise and clear sound.
• Flat and Wide Frequency Response: The ECM-100U microphone has a flat and wide frequency response (20 Hz to 50kHz) and provides superb sound reproduction quality for High-Resolution Audio.
  
• Low-Cut Filter: Low-Cut filter switch helps eliminate low-frequency noise and proximity effect.
• Pad Switch: An -10dB pad switch on the ECM-100U microphone provides added headroom and minimizes distortion caused by transient peaks.
