An outstanding portable acoustic solution

I use the reflection filter with a variety of microphones in an open live room setting. The filter does an incredible job of isolating the room from the sound source. Depending on your placement, you can get a wide array of sonic choices and sounds.

Just what I've been looking for to record the sax with the Neumann TLM 102

sE Reflection Filter

It exceeded my expectation. The purchase actually came about as a miscommunication—where an inquiry about the product ended up as an order. But I am very happy with it. I have a great isolation room, but I create vocally much easier in the control room. There's always the headphone/silent room option, however sometimes I lose the inspiration pinned in he cans.

sE Electronics Project Studio Reflexion Filter

An outstanding solution at a reasonable price = great value! Does a nice job on isolation in my home studio. I've tried it so far on vocals and acoustic guitar with excellent results.

sE studio reflexion filter

I love it! It has added extra to my studio and raised the quality of my spoken word recordings. I am a storyteller and use a small room which is filled with books (unevenly placed on the shelf), curtains, cushions and a foam block on the ceiling (as well as a somewhat noisy computer). My room is well sound insulated, but there was an improvement using the Project Studio Reflexion Filter. It has made the sound of my voice richer and has cut out some of the ambiance of the room. I will try it out in some other rooms which are not sound proofed, as it were, to test it more. But for what I use it for, it is great. It did not get a 5 only because my room is well sound proofed already so there was no WOW factor - however, it did make a difference.

Significantly tightens up vocals

Does exactly what it's supposed to do and helps me to record vocals @ 24bit via akg 414 into logic pro 9 with no compression; clear & tight vocals. On the downside there were NO instructions so i had to download the manual from the se electronics website.

Didn't do it for me

I give it 3 stars mostly because of price. It would work well perhaps in a small walk in closet or if the room was somewhat treated but it didn't have a significant effect on the reflections in my room. Again, good if it were used in conjunction with something else but not quite what I expected.

Works but.......

It definitely helped with creating an isolation zone for several mics (AKG 414, CAD E200, Rode, AT40's). But.....the mounting hardware is HEAVY and clunky, although very solid. This created an interesting 'weight' challenge....even for a large studio boom stand. Nonetheless...it works as designed.

if you can deal with the breif learning curve of obtaining optimal mounting.....GET THIS PRODUCT.....!

Unstable mount is just bloody awful

I have a Lawson L251 large diaphragm condenser on an Atlas stand, and the sE Electronics Project Studio Reflexion Filter will not hold the microphone in place. It is not the stand that is sagging; it is the finicky contraption that holds the filter in place. It keeps sagging no matter how tightly it is attached to the mic stand. And again, it's not the mic stand.

I'm not one of these people that usually complains about products, but this is a goofy contraption that does not work effectively. My friend, who is an high-level engineer who graduated from Cal Tech, took a look at it when I began complaining about it, and immediately commented at the mount, saying that it was unnecessarily complicated, and that he would not be purchasing one of these.

The actual filter works fairly well. But ask yourself this question: do you want your large diaphragm condenser to be sagging several feet above the floor? Didn't think so.

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
