Developed through rigorous beta-testing alongside elite producers and world-class session drummers, this microphone is tuned to faithfully capture the fundamental punch, rimshot nuances, and rattle of the snare wires. Serving as a crucial tool for both meticulous studio tracking and aggressive live sound reinforcement, it delivers a mix-ready snare tone that effortlessly cuts through heavy arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe magic behind the \u003cstrong\u003eSontronics DM-1S\u003c\/strong\u003e lies in its highly compliant diaphragm and exceptionally fast transient response. Unlike its sister microphone (the DM-1T designed for toms), the DM-1S features a custom-tailored frequency curve with a less pronounced bottom-end roll-off and a specific presence boost between 5 kHz and 10 kHz, capturing the true voice of the snare. To handle heavy-hitting drummers, it is equipped with a switchable -10dB attenuation pad, giving it the ability to flawlessly handle massive sound pressure levels up to 135dB without distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHoused in a compact, low-profile body, the microphone is incredibly easy to position in tight spaces without obstructing the drummer's striking area. Its strict cardioid polar pattern guarantees focused sound capture, isolating the snare drum while efficiently rejecting bleed from the hi-hat, cymbals, and toms. While it is unequivocally a snare specialist, the DM-1S is also a superb choice for capturing the crisp details of hand percussion instruments such as djembe, congas, and cajon. It comes supplied with a dedicated mic clip for secure mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedicated small-diaphragm condenser microphone optimized specifically for snare drums\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExceptionally fast transient response to catch every rimshot, snap, and ghost note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocused cardioid polar pattern effectively rejects hi-hat and cymbal bleed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom frequency response curve with a presence boost optimized for snare characteristics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitchable -10dB pad allowing the microphone to handle extremely loud drum hits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-profile and lightweight design for easy positioning on complex drum kits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-SPL capability, managing sound pressure levels up to an impressive 135dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly versatile for tracking other snappy percussion like cajon, congas, and bongos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes a robust microphone holder for quick and secure stand mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrophone Type: Small-diaphragm condenser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolar Pattern: Cardioid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency Response: 30 Hz to 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity: 8 mV\/Pa (-42 dB ±2 dB, 0 dB = 1V\/Pa @ 1 kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpedance: ≤ 200 Ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL (for 0.5% THD @ 1 kHz): 135 dB (with -10dB pad engaged)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquivalent Noise Level: 14 dB (A-weighted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttenuation Pad: 0 dB, -10 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Requirements: 48V Phantom power required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector: 3-pin XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 95 × 22 × 22 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.09 kg (90 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"Sontronics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53155244671313,"sku":"49235","price":187.08,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/SontronicsDM-1S1.jpg?v=1772439435","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/en-fr\/products\/sontronics-dm-1s","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
