Natural Stereo Imaging

A stereo condenser microphone, mono-compatible, perfect for professional recording, sampling and broadcasting. It's especially good at conveying ambient environment for location recording or film sound. Separate left and right outputs are low impedance balanced, allowing long cable runs without hum or high frequency loss. A low-frequency cut switch attenuates frequencies below 100 Hz by 12 dB-per-octave, reducing wind noise and low-end rumble. The SASS-P MkII can be powered by either two internal 9 volt batteries or by phantom power.

Our Customers Say...

When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.
