From Sony
The Sony ECM-100U is a premium small-diaphragm condenser microphone designed for professional high-resolution recording applications where detail, accuracy, and transparency are essential. Built specifically for capturing acoustic instruments with exceptional realism, the ECM-100U delivers an incredibly natural and detailed sound character that makes it ideal for studio recording, classical music, piano, strings, percussion, acoustic guitar, and critical stereo recording setups.
Featuring a newly developed 17mm cardioid capsule and an ultra-wide 20Hz–50kHz frequency response, the ECM-100U captures subtle transients, harmonic detail, and spatial nuance with remarkable precision. Sony’s advanced noise-elimination construction—derived from the legendary C-800G studio microphone—uses a two-part metallic body design to reduce unwanted mechanical vibration and deliver exceptionally low self-noise and pristine clarity.
Designed for demanding studio environments, the ECM-100U includes a switchable low-cut filter to reduce rumble and proximity effect, along with a -10dB pad for handling louder sound sources with ease. Whether used as a single spot microphone or in a matched stereo configuration, the Sony ECM-100U offers audiophile-grade fidelity and breathtaking detail for engineers and musicians seeking uncompromising sonic accuracy.
