| Content | The Sontronics STC-10 is a cardioid pencil condenser microphone that is based on the companyʼs STC-1.
While the STC-1 accepts alternate capsules with different polar patterns from Sontronics, the company makes no mention of compatibility with the STC-10. This leads us to believe that the capsule is not interchangeable, which likely allows the microphone to be priced lower than its predecessor.
The STC-10 features switches for a pad (-10 dB) and low-cut filter (at 75 Hz) on its front.
According to Sontronics, the STC-10 is designed to sound similar to the STC-1, at a lower cost. The company does not go into specifics, but some examples of areas they were able to cut costs were in accessories and expandability. The STC-10 ships with a mic clip and windscreen, though a shockmount and padded case are available for purchase separately.

Power Specifications
Requires phantom power
Phantom voltage: 48v | This new mic is a performance / price breakthrough. It has an acoustically identical version of the legendary CK1 capsule that is permanently mounted. This combination can handle high output transients as well as subtle harmonics. Also included are switchable 75 and 150Hz 12dB per octave rolloff, and switchable -10 & -20 dB input pad. It is a single pattern (cardioid), and has a frequency response of 20 to 20kHz with 135 dB SPL. Requires 12 to 48V phantom power. Kit comes with bag, windscreen and clip.
For more than twenty years, the AKG C 451 with the CK 1 condenser capsule was a standard item on tour riders for sound companies and required by leading engineers for studio projects. When it was discontinued in 1993, there was still a big demand for this microphone. AKG now has an updated version of this classic microphone.
The new C 451B provides the same frequency response as the legendary CK 1 with the same slight high-end rise that was the signature of the original. This characteristic makes the C 451B an ideal tool for capturing signals rich in transients such as acoustic guitars, snare drums, hi-hats and for overhead micing of drum kits. The C 451B?s response eliminates the need for heavy EQ on these instruments.
The new C 451B has also benefited from newer electronic technology with machine soldering and surface-mount components that improve noise performance and make the microphone much more reliable than the original.
Other special features include switchable 10 dB and 20 dB preattenuation pads and switchable low cut filters at 75 Hz or 150 Hz. Standard accessories included are an SA 40 stand adaptor, W 90 windscreen and a rugged zippered bag. Each C 451B also comes with an individual frequency response printout.
Three-year warranty.

C 568 B
Compact, short shotgun microphone
Integrated, switchable bass cut filter minimizes mechanical noise
Operates on phantom power
High directivity and wide frequency response in a relatively short shotgun make this
microphone a perfect tool for theater, sound reinforcement, and film/TV applications.
Due to its compact and lightweight design, the C 568 B is ideal for camera mount
applications. Below 500 Hz it functions as a hypercardioid microphone; above 500 Hz
the acoustic interference tube introduces increasing directivity. A switchable 12 dB/
octave 120 Hz bass cut filter effectively suppresses rumble and wind noise. The rugged,
all-metal body contains the built-in preamp. Phantom powering (9?52 V) required; foam
windscreen and stand adapter included.
