The Hyper and Omni capsules are designed to add even more flexibility and versatility to the best-selling Sontronics STC-1 and STC-1S condenser microphones.
The STC-1 and STC-1S pencil condensers are fitted with cardioid capsules as standard, but these can be easily exchanged for the optional Omni (omnidirectional) and Hyper (hypercardioid), giving you three mics in one (or six mics in two, in the case of the STC-1S stereo pair). These capsules offer a quick and easy way to expand your mic locker and extend your recording capabilities.
The hypercardioid Hyper capsule is ideal when you need a tighter pickup, for example where you need to focus in on one source within a group and reduce spill from other instruments or voices (eg, recording hi-hat within a drumkit or a violin within a quartet).
When used with the STC-1 and/or STC-1S pencil condenser microphones, the OMNI capsule is ideal for overhead/room and ensemble recording while the HYPER capsule adds extra definition to solo percussion instruments (eg, hi-hat).
