UNIVERSAL AUDIO MIC-UASD-3 | Sd-3 Dynamic Microphone W/ Hemisphere Mic Modeling

SD-3

Cardioid Dynamic Microphone with Hemisphere Modeling

Add vintage sound and vintage look to your live-sound and studio-recording setup with the Universal Audio SD-3, a cardioid dynamic microphone featuring a rugged all-metal construction and cool, retro look. The SD-3's hand-selected dynamic capsule can handle extreme SPL while the directional, cardioid polar pattern rejects off-axis sounds, making the mic ideal for snare drums, guitar amps, brass, and more.

The SD-3 uses UA's award-winning Hemisphere Microphone Modeling technology to give you the authentic sound of iconic dynamic mics from Shure, Audiox, and Sennheiser, in real time with Apollo or natively in your DAW (using the included Hemisphere plug-in). You can also shape the sound of your recordings using filter, proximity, and axis controls—even after tracking—and get album-ready results, fast.

Easily Capture Your Best Sounds

From stage to studio, the SD-3’s cardioid design, ultrahigh SPL capability, and exceptional isolation, give you iconic sit-in-the-mix sounds heard on countless hits. Plus, its compact size lets you zone in for perfect mic placement in tight spaces.
