OVERVIEW

Organic sound from modern ribbon technology.

The Sterling Audio ST170 active ribbon microphone brings a vintage-style tone to any recording environment with an ideal voicing for modern mixes of electric and acoustic guitars, drums, vocals and overhead/room. The active phantom-powered design gives you the optimal output level to hit the tonal sweet spot of mic preamps, as well as ample ability to handle extra-loud sources like guitar amps and drums. Its rich presence and warm bottom allow your mixes to come together quickly without heavy EQ.

The Sterling Audio ST170 active ribbon mic includes an SM5 metal shockmount and sturdy aluminum carry case. It requires phantom power.
