Universal Audio SD-1 microphone detail and recording features

Shape your voice at the source

Use the 200 Hz low-cut filter to reduce low-frequency buildup, or engage the 3–5 kHz articulation boost for added presence. Match the actual signal connection and the intended recording or listening setup, then check the relevant device controls before starting the session.

A practical XLR recording path

Connect the SD-1 to a microphone preamp or audio interface. Its dynamic capsule is suited to vocal and instrument recording across home and professional setups.

Explore microphone modeling

The SD-1 works with Universal Audio Hemisphere software to explore different microphone characters. Registration and compatible software are required to use the modeling features. Match the actual signal connection and the intended recording or listening setup, then check the relevant device controls before starting the session.

Position it for the performance

The integrated mount supports convenient positioning, with a 5/8-inch to 3/8-inch thread adapter included for compatible stands. Match the actual signal connection and the intended recording or listening setup, then check the relevant device controls before starting the session.

Keep the Exact Model and Signal Path Clear

SD-1 connects through XLR, with a recommended input load above 1 kohm. Its low-cut switch is 200 Hz and articulation boost is 3–5 kHz. Hemisphere modeling requires registration and compatible software rather than changing the microphone into a USB device.

Choose the Connected Equipment for Its Actual Role

Match the product’s stated input and output connections to the source and destination. Keep microphone preamps, digital converters and headphone amplifiers in their appropriate roles, checking cable wiring and power requirements before completing the recording or listening chain.

Complete Your Workspace

Explore microphones, microphone accessories for your setup. Suggested products are sold separately. Match the actual input, output, cable wiring and power requirements across the recording or listening chain. Use the microphone and interface power settings appropriate to the actual source. USB microphone audio and XLR microphone inputs are separate routes. Headphones connect to a suitable monitoring output; optional computer controls do not act as a recorder’s dedicated remote. Compare each alternative’s format, ports, gain, included accessories and physical arrangement before choosing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which signal path and version should I plan for?

What listening connection is provided?

Headphone monitoring is provided by your separate audio interface or mixer, rather than assuming a headphone jack on this XLR microphone.

How should I choose a microphone arm?

Match the mounting thread, microphone and mount weight, desk fit and clearance. Include any shock mount in the total load, rather than choosing an arm from the microphone weight alone.

How should I set recording level?

Set the supported microphone or interface gain for normal speech or the intended source, leaving headroom for louder moments. Place the microphone for the stated pickup pattern and check the actual recording input before starting.
