N-SONIC microphones are not your average Chinese ribbon mics, and they are not in the same class as the $69 special from musician's friend. Each N-SONIC microphone ribbon is adjusted by hand to the proper tension, resulting in a higher output and clearer, crisper sound. This attention to detail normally does not come cheap, but we believe that saving money on expensive advertisements to keep our price low will ultimately keep our product selling. We also don't have a large number of people on payroll, so we can afford to give you a great deal! N-SONIC strives for quality, while keeping the prices as low as possible.

For $30 extra, I can upgrade the ribbon from 2.5 micron aluminum to 1.8 micron. This drastically improves the sound, because the lower mass of the ribbon allows it to move faster, resulting in better transient response and clearer sound. The quality after this modification puts it in the same class as ribbon mics costing hundreds of dollars more. If you are looking for truly superb sound ask for this mod.


The NS-1 is a great choice for vocals, electric guitar, acoustic instruments, horns, drum overheads, and just about any souce you try it out on. Powerful and versatile, it meets the stringent requirements of even the most demanding recording projects. The NS-1 comes in a beautiful wooden box, and includes a shockmount, and velvet microphone sheath.
