The SO.2 Microphone is omni directional and captures an incredible amount of detail in a small form factor (only 7.7mm diameter!). We love to record and listen to small, intricate, and delicate sound sources with the SO.2 Microphone. Utilizing the Primo EM258 capsule, the microphone has excellent ultrasonic frequency response and can capture audio well into the ultrasonic range. The SO.2 terminates in a standard XLR male connector and is 48v phantom powered. 

The SO.2 Microphone is fabricated and assembled in-house by hand in NYC.

FAQ

What is the difference between the SO Standard Series and SO.100 Series microphones?

The sonic performance between the SO Standard Series and the SO.100 series is the same as both microphone product lines use the same Primo capsules in them. The difference between the two pertains to the physical size of the mics and the included/compatible accessories. 

The SO.100 series is 20mm in diameter and is likely to be more compatible with more third party accessories. The SO.100 series have a typical male XLR termination and can be used with any typical XLR cable. The SO.100 series does not include any accessories.

The SO Standard Series mics are much smaller (11mm in diameter), terminate in male mini XLR, use proprietary cables (mini XLR to XLR or 3.5mm) and include some accessories (foam windscreen, alligator clip, cable type of choice (XLR or 3.5mm) We’ve designed and offer a range of accessories to be used with the SO Standard Series - Magnetic Mounts, Stereo XY/ORTF/AB array mounts etc.. The length of the included XLR cable can be extended by connecting any typical XLR cable.
