sE Electronics Project Studio Reflexion - Durable Metal Construction Reviews
Here's a great way to control the acoustics of your recording space without losing control of your budget! Getting a perfectly "tuned" acoustically treated space is a major investment. The reality is that many top engineers spend millions of dollars treating their studios and still walk the line between "perfect" and "good enough." That doesn't mean you can't make perfectly passable recordings at home or in your own project studio; you just need the right equipment. The sE Electronics Project Studio RF is a wonderful place to start.

Well Done
The perfect solution for the small studio. I use it for voiceovers but it's perfect for vocals tool
Great Filter
Every Person I have recorded on this so far has said that they are pleased with the way their recording come out... And I was in an untreated living room. This is worth the money. I was going to upgrade to the 300 pro filter, but there truly is no need...at least not until I get a Professional Recording studio. This works just fine.
SE Electronics Prtoject Studio Reflexion Filter
The product does what it says it will do. I do not have a great room for recording and this reflexion filter seems to help alot. The only complaint that I have is that mounting hardware could be more sturdy. It leans a little when I set it up. Overall, I'm happy with the purchase.
sE stuff . . . pretty cool.
I think all this type of reflection filters are over priced but after using this one, I find it will worth the $200 I spend. As always... THANKS Sweetwater. I also have an sE 2200a mike... love it !
No complaints about this product!
Not only does this product do a tremendous job reducing room noise but it's portability makes it top notch in my book. Worth every penny I paid!
Build quality is not the greatest !
When you buy it with the sE X1 you got to be careful when your setting it up. I bought it directly from sE Electronics and they shipped it with a missing peice ! BTW made a huge impact on the product itself ! Its not made with the best materials but it will get the job done. If you are careful then this is the best for the price. It does its job well and gives you a clean and tight vocal sound.
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
Project Studio Reflexion Filter
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.
AMAZING
HUGE difference i have both the Blue Bird & AT2020 mic and with this i will put my 2020 up against a blue bird with out one any day nice and dead,...i was gonna buy the 300.00 pro but this serves its purpose just fine
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.....!
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.
