Sound sculpting for any task
A great-sounding track begins at the source — the microphone. With the X1 A, you have built-in tools at your disposal to capture the perfect take and make your mixing job easier. The 100Hz low-cut filter tames low-frequency rumble and footfall noise, making it ideal for solving proximity effect issues and achieving clarity with bass-heavy instruments. For louder instruments, such as close-miked guitars, horns, and percussion, a -20dB pad helps eliminate unwanted distortion in your tracks. Whatever instrument you choose to capture, the X1 A is primed for the task.
