sE Electronics Voodoo VR1 Passive Ribbon Microphone sE Electronics Voodoo VR1 Passive Ribbon Microphone at a Glance: Incredible ribbon performance for an affordable price One of the first full-frequency ribbon microphones Designed by sE Electronics CEO Siwei Zou Incredible ribbon performance for an affordable price Ribbon microphones have an unmistakeable warm and true tone that is indispensable in a recording studio. Unfortunately, most ribbons are prohibitively expensive for many engineers. sE Electronics heard the calls for an affordable ribbon mic and introduced the Voodoo VR1 passive ribbon. Now you can get all of that detailed clear sound from a true ribbon mic, at a price anyone can afford. One of the first full-frequency ribbon microphones Before the Voodoo series was released, the only full-frequency ribbon mic was sE Electronics' own RNR1, designed in conjunction with Rupert Neve. An amazing mic in its own right, the RNR1 isn't cheap. And rightfully so. But the industry was turned on its head when sE Electronics also released the Voodoo series, claiming much of the same performance, but at a price well below the original. Thanks to an ingenious electrical circuit, you can now get that full-frequency sound for your recording budget. Designed by sE Electronics' CEO Siwei Zou At sE Electronics, CEO Siwei Zou is right there working with his employees designing these amazing microphones. As a classically trained musician in his own right, he knows what he wants out of a great microphone. The circuitry that is responsible for the VR1's unbelievable performance is direct from the man himself. sE Electronics Voodoo VR1 Passive Ribbon Microphone Features: High-quality and affordable passive ribbon microphone Competes with high-end mics at a lower price Full-frequency response is magic on detailed sources Designed by company founder Siwei Zou Polar Pattern: Figure 8 Max SPL for 0.5% THD@1000Hz: 135dB Phantom power protection Rugged design can be used virtually anywhere Ruler-flat frequency response from 20Hz to 18kHz +/- 2dB Tech Specs Microphone Type:Ribbon Ribbon Type:2-micron Aluminum Polar Pattern:Figure-8 Frequency Response:20Hz-18kHz (±2dB) Max SPL:135dB SPL Output Impedance:300 ohms Self Noise:17dB (A weighted) Sensitivity:1.78mV/Pa (-55 dB) Connector:XLR Weight:8 oz.
