sE Electronics X1 S STUDIO BUNDLE Condenser Mic Kit

The sE Electronics X1 S Studio Bundle is a complete recording package centered on the X1 S large-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone. It is designed for creators who need a practical vocal, instrument, podcast, or voice-over setup without assembling each accessory separately. The included RF-X Reflexion Filter, shock mount, metal pop filter, and XLR cable help address common recording challenges such as room reflections, vibration, and vocal plosives.At the center of the bundle, the X1 S uses a hand-crafted 1-inch true-condenser capsule and cardioid pickup pattern. Its 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range, 30 mV/Pa sensitivity, and 9 dB(A) equivalent noise level support detailed capture of vocals and acoustic instruments. The cardioid response focuses on the source in front of the microphone while reducing pickup from the rear.The X1 S is built to accommodate both subtle and high-output sources. Switchable -10 dB and -20 dB attenuation pads expand its usable range for close-miked amps, drums, and strong vocal performances. With the -20 dB pad selected, the microphone is rated to handle up to 160 dB SPL at 0.5% THD.Two switchable low-cut filters, set at 80 Hz and 160 Hz, provide source-side control over rumble, footfall noise, and excessive proximity-effect bass. This makes the microphone easier to adapt to close vocal work, spoken-word recording, and instrument tracking. The all-metal body and gold-plated 3-pin XLR connector provide a durable wired signal path for studio use.The RF-X Reflexion Filter adds portable acoustic control behind and around the microphone. Its four-layer construction uses a vented composite panel, wool fabric, an air gap, and acoustic foam to reduce unwanted room reflections. Together with the Isolation Pack and included 3-meter XLR cable, the bundle provides a useful front end for an audio interface, microphone preamp, or mixer that supplies 48V phantom power.Key Features Complete Recording Bundle: Includes the microphone, acoustic filter, shock mount, pop filter, and XLR cable. 1-Inch Condenser Capsule: Captures vocals and instruments with a detailed cardioid response. High SPL Handling: Handles up to 160 dB SPL with the -20 dB pad. Switchable Pads: -10 dB and -20 dB settings help manage loud sound sources.

Design & InstallationThe X1 S has an all-metal housing, a hand-crafted condenser capsule, and a gold-plated 3-pin male XLR connector. The included Isolation Pack uses a quick-release shock mount and removable, vertically adjustable metal pop filter. The RF-X is a hand-assembled, four-layer portable acoustic filter with a vented composite outer panel.Connect the included 3-meter XLR cable between the microphone and an audio interface, mixer, or microphone preamp that provides 48V phantom power. Mount the microphone in the supplied clip or Isolation Pack on a compatible mic stand, then position the RF-X behind the microphone for voice or instrument recording in an untreated room. Use the pads for high-output sources and select the low-cut filter as needed to reduce low-frequency buildup.
