sE Electronics X1 Vocal Pack

The sE X1 is one of our most popular microphones and whether you’re recording vocals, percussion, guitar or any other instrument, the sE X1 is the perfect choice. It features a hand built capsule with a 10dB pad and low cut bass filter and is finished in noise damping black paint. The sE X1 is ideal for both male and female vocals.

The sE X1 Vocal Pack consists of everything you need to start recording straight away in your project and home studio. The unique shockmount mounting system makes for quick and easy setup. The sE X1 Vocal Pack includes the recording essentials; sE X1 condenser microphone, a shock mount, sE Metal Pop Filter and a 3m high-quality microphone cable.

The sE Metal Pop Filter is crucial for recording vocals and has been created with the metal screen louvered at a slight angle. This redirects any ultra-low frequency blasts leaving the vocal performance unaffected and without any low frequency ‘pop’s. Being made of metal as opposed to the traditional fabric shield makes the sE Pop Filter much more durable.

What the professionals say:

…we chose the sE X1 over the NT1a for the vast majority of the recordings, because the recordings sounded ‘righter’ when put into the middle of tracks – we could do more with them in mixing and the end result was better. – Producer Simon Franglen (Avatar, Madonna, Titanic)
