Sontronics

Sontronics is a UK-based microphone manufacturer known for building high-quality studio microphones with a strong focus on character, reliability, and real-world use. Designed and developed in the UK, Sontronics microphones are widely used in studios, broadcast environments, and live recording setups, offering a balance between modern clarity and musical warmth.

The Sontronics range covers large-diaphragm condensers, pencil condensers, ribbon microphones, and specialist models, many of which are well suited to drums and percussion. Their microphones are commonly used on kick drums, snares, toms, overheads, and room mics, delivering detailed attack, controlled low end, and smooth high frequencies without sounding harsh. This makes them a popular choice for both studio engineers and drummers recording their own kits.

Sontronics is known for robust build quality and long warranties, reflecting confidence in their products and a commitment to longevity rather than disposable gear. For drummers and producers looking for microphones that sound musical, handle high sound pressure levels, and work reliably session after session, Sontronics has earned a strong reputation as a dependable and thoughtfully designed brand.
