Brief Description

The X1 S is a high-quality condenser microphone intended for a wide range of studio applications,
from vocals to drums to acoustic instruments and beyond. Thanks to its custom design and hand-
crafted 1" true condenser capsule, it delivers pristine sound quality and an even, well-balanced
frequency response.
The electronics and the switchable attenuation pads ensure a high dynamic range, with high
sound pressure level (SPL) handling capability and extremely low-noise components. The
switchable low cut filters eliminate rumble or footfall noise, and can also compensate for an
excess of bass frequencies caused by the proximity effect. This enables the X1 S to close-mic
many instruments including electric guitar speaker cabinets, brass instruments and drums.
Reliable operation even in demanding on-stage applications in difficult environments is ensured by
the roadworthy all-metal design, robust construction, and high quality manufacturing standards.

Controls
The X1 S features a switch for the attenuation pads and a switch for the low-cut filters.
Attenuation Switch
The Attenuation Switch is located on the front-left side of
the microphone. When switched on, the incoming signal is
reduced by either 10 or 20 dB for capturing of loud
instruments and/or close-miking without distortion. Using
the switch also helps prevent overloading the input stage of
recording interfaces, mixing desks and microphone
preamps.
