Introduction

The S1 is the result of over 30 years experience in stage

sound technology.

The design brief was simple- build the best vocal mic

in the world! How do you achieve that? Well, you need

to have a sound quality that is equal to the fi nest studio

microphones, and certainly

has the experience

to make this happen!

The studio quality is a great start, but for live use the

microphone must not suffer from feedback, handling or

plosive noise. It must also have a tailored response that

takes into consideration the proximity effect. What else?

It must be able to take the knocks and bumps of the

road! The S1 does it all, and in my opinion, is the best

looking vocal mic around.

While using the S1 is quite simple, and there are not

many things you need to learn, please take a moment

to read through this user manual, and then visit

www.rodemic.com and register your microphone for a

full ten year warranty.

While there you can view studio tips and techniques, as

well as browse the comprehensive range of accessories

for

microphones. Thank you for investing in your

S1 live condenser microphone.
