Product Information

Vintage is always cool, especially when it comes to technology that boasts an unrivaled worldwide reputation. For a perfectly dated look yet exquisite sound quality and modern technology, the original Sony C-37A microphone is the ideal choice for both professionals and audio enthusiasts. The famous Sony C-37A took its name from the outer diameter of the C-3 capsule element, which was 37mm. Created in the 1950's and considered the first general-purpose microphone, this condenser mic has spanned decades as a favorite of many different types of musicians, such as Frank Sinatra, who would notoriously always nail it with one take and leave the studio happy when using the Sony C-37A. He then refused to use any other microphone and would walk out of a recording session if it wasn’t the Sony C-37A. After seeing what a difference the microphone made in Sinatra’s studio sessions, Capitol Records installed one in every booth, and Sinatra himself took one on the road so he could create that specific high-quality sound at each of his live shows. Since then, the Sony microphone has continued to be a top seller in the recording world, even surpassing rival German company Neumann. Recording artists and home studio vocalists swear by the brand and model to produce pitch-perfect sounds for their everyday needs. The Sony C-37A tube mic is high-fidelity, a technology that became popular in the 1950's. This means the device picks up sound in perfect clarity as the artist truly intends, delivering a top-notch playback on any device. The device boasts a slot at the back of mic grille for changing the pickup pattern mechanically to tailor to your needs. Simply switch back and forth from omnidirectional to unidirectional, depending on your frequency needs. The Sony microphone has multiple EQ settings on the power supply and a 30 to 16K Hz of frequency response, which means it sounds great even during high-voltage sessions. The 21-3P audio output connector lets you make a custom output cable, so recording is simple. The vintage-looking Sony microphone is silver-coated with a celluloid diaphragm, making anyone feel like a 1960's crooner. The mic creates a tube sound, unique to its era, and it works especially well on female vocals, filling in bottom-end notes for thinner voices and adding extra octaves for sopranos. The microphone’s use doesn’t end with vocals. Loud-source instruments, such as drums or even amplifiers, can be used to create a rich, warm, and crisp sound. This makes it the perfect device for each member of the band, something that can’t be said for many audio recorders. The Sony C-37A microphone is sleek and easy to use, making it the ideal addition to a home studio, professional studio, or even as a start to a novice’s audio collection. This is a serious mic that delivers professional sound by cutting down on sibilance to produce smooth and succinct vocals and clear musical audio.
