Sony

Put the vocal first. Sony’s studio range includes valve and solid-state condenser microphones, alongside instrument mics and monitoring headphones. Our collection spans the C-800G, C-100 and C-80, plus ECM models for instrument recording. Choose around the voice, the pickup pattern and what else is happening in the room (the singer isn’t always the only thing the mic hears).

The C-800G’s distinctive cooling assembly has a purpose: its Peltier system controls the operating temperature of the microphone’s valve. Selectable cardioid and omnidirectional patterns give it different ways to capture the performance. The C-100 takes another route, combining a two-way capsule design with cardioid, omnidirectional and figure-of-eight patterns.

Focused pickup or sound from all around? The ECM-100U uses a cardioid pattern, while the ECM-100N is omnidirectional, giving you two approaches to instrument recording. Beyond microphones, our collection includes MDR-MV1 open-back headphones for mixing and monitoring, alongside older Sony equipment such as the DRE-S777 sampling reverb. There’s more to the range than the microphone behind the vocal.
