Try out the new Delta at LIMS
UK-based microphone brand Sontronics will be waving the British flag at this year's LIMS, exhibiting their complete range of microphones, preamps and accessories. The brand, which celebrates its fifth birthday this summer, will be offering show visitors the chance to try out all their British-designed microphones including the newly released rugged ribbon mic, the Delta (right).
The new mic is designed for use in the live environment as well as the studio, and the guys at Sontronics have come up with an ingenious way of demoing exactly what it can do. "The Sontronics RockBox," explains Sontronics founder Trevor Coley, "is a soundproofed isolation box containing our new DELTA ribbon microphone sitting right next to a guitar amp connected out to a guitar and headphones. Visitors can pop on the headphones, play the guitar and experience exactly how well the DELTA works on guitar amps, and users are already telling us it also gives amazing results with brass, woodwind and stringed instruments as well."
It's five years since Coley began sketching out designs for microphones that would realise his dream of developing an alternative line of high-quality, vintage-inspired yet affordable microphones, and now the Sontronics range has grown to include studio and live performance mics, accessories and, more recently, top-class preamplifiers.
"I'm proud to say that, since I founded Sontronics and launched it to the world in January 2005, our mics and preamps have been, and continue to be, used by some of the most famous artists and producers in the business," says Coley. "My primary aim has always been to perfect the front end of the audio chain, with microphones that sound as good as they look and, according to thousands of satisfied users around the world, we must be getting it right!"
You can hear SONTRONICS mics for yourself, including the new Delta, at their stand hosted by new UK distributors Time+Space at the LIMS Show, which is taking place between the 11th and 14th of June. Find out more info about the full range of mics and preamps at the Sontronics web site.
