A NEW ERA FOR RIBBON MIC TECHNOLOGY

Until the sE Electronics VR1, the only ribbon mic in the world to perform across 20Hz-20kHz was our own Rupert Neve collaboration, the RNR1. This was achieved using state-of-the-art custom transformers and a Rupert Neve-designed circuit to reveal HF usually absent.

A PASSIVE RIBBON WITH FULL FREQUENCY RESPONSE

With the VR mics, full frequency response is achieved using a clever mechanical device designed by Siwei Zou, the company CEO, and a hand-tensioned ribbon constructed by our highly specialized technicians in sE’s capsule room.

ALL-METAL HOUSING & PREMIUM FINISH

Unlike the cheaply constructed bodies of some other affordable microphones, the sE Electronics VR1’s all-metal housing provides efficient rejection of any electrical interference and noise – and the high-quality finish ensures a great look for years to come.

GOLD-PLATED XLR CONNECTOR

Ensures loss-free, reliable signal connection for years and years of demanding use in the studio or on tour.

CUSTOM SHOCKMOUNT + CHASSIS

The flat, round-edged chassis design and custom suspension mount allow the mic to be centered within the shock, flipped around and used flat against a drum head or guitar cab, or angled outwards and pushed through inside of a kick drum. And at less than 3/4″ thick, it fits neatly in the palm of your hand, but is built to take a beating on the road.
