Introducing the Studio Projects B1 Condenser Microphone, where affordability meets performance. Whether you're a seasoned sound engineer or an aspiring musician, this microphone is designed to be your versatile companion in any recording setting. Known for its 1" 3-micron gold-sputtered large diaphragm, the B1 captures sound with exceptional clarity and minimal noise, making it an ideal choice for vocals, instruments, and even voice-over work.

With a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz, the B1 delivers a natural and transparent sound profile. Adding to its versatility are two discrete 3-way switches that let you toggle between pad levels (-10dB, -20dB) and highpass filters (75Hz, 150Hz), allowing for nine operating modes to suit various recording environments and applications.

Built to cater to both professional studios and home setups, the B1 includes essentials such as a shock mount and windscreen, ensuring each session is as polished as possible. Its ability to handle high sound pressure levels up to 132 dB means it can capture loud sound sources without distortion, while maintaining a low self-noise of 12dB-A for a clean recording experience.
