Like the rest of Sontronics’ ribbon range, its active circuit means the mic outputs a healthier signal than a passive ribbon design, so it behaves well with ordinary preamps instead of demanding huge amounts of clean gain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside is the same 1.8-micron ribbon and neodymium magnet arrangement used in the mic it descends from, paired with a custom-wound transformer built specifically for this circuit. Sontronics’ RFI filter is fitted as standard, guarding against radio-frequency interference on stage as well as in the studio, and the mic is hand-built in the UK with a unique shockmount and ABS flightcase included for storage and transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"background:#f3f3f3;border-left:4px solid #111111;padding:8px 12px;font-size:18px;line-height:1.3;font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.04em;margin:28px 0 14px;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin:0 0 4px;padding-left:22px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhantom-Powered Ribbon Microphone\u003c\/strong\u003e: Utilises a highly sensitive ribbon element with the added advantage of phantom power, providing a stronger output signal while maintaining the classic ribbon mic sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmooth, Warm Sound\u003c\/strong\u003e: Delivers the signature warm, natural, and smooth sound associated with ribbon microphones, making it ideal for vocals, strings, brass, and woodwind instruments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuperb Sensitivity\u003c\/strong\u003e: Captures the subtle nuances of any performance with exceptional sensitivity, offering detailed and natural recordings even at lower sound levels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFigure-8 Polar Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Features a true figure-of-8 polar pattern, capturing sound equally from the front and rear while rejecting noise from the sides, ideal for stereo recordings and close-miking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow Self-Noise\u003c\/strong\u003e: Engineered with ultra-low self-noise circuitry, ensuring that even the quietest details of a performance are captured without unwanted noise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand-Built in the UK\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each Sigma 2 is meticulously hand-built in the UK, ensuring the highest quality and consistency in every microphone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRetro-Style Design\u003c\/strong\u003e: Features a classic, elegant design with a durable, all-metal body that reflects the vintage charm of traditional ribbon microphones.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVersatile Studio Use\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ideal for studio applications, whether you're recording vocals, acoustic instruments, or orchestral performances, offering a rich and natural sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"background:#f3f3f3;border-left:4px solid #111111;padding:8px 12px;font-size:18px;line-height:1.3;font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.04em;margin:28px 0 14px;\"\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin:0 0 4px;padding-left:22px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVocals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpoken Word\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolo Woodwind\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolo Strings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePiano\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAcoustic Guitars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"background:#f3f3f3;border-left:4px solid #111111;padding:8px 12px;font-size:18px;line-height:1.3;font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.04em;margin:28px 0 14px;\"\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin:0 0 4px;padding-left:22px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicrophone type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ribbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolar pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Figure-of-eight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20Hz to 15kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24mV\/Pa\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImpedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e ≤150 Ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax.
