UA’s SD-1 is their spin on the modern workhorse dynamic — tough, versatile, and ready for anything from vocals to amps.
✅ Cardioid dynamic mic
✅ Low-cut + presence boost switches
✅ Handles loud sources with ease
✅ Hemisphere modelling software for classic tones
It’s smooth on voice, takes a beating on instruments, and with Hemisphere you can swap mic models or tweak proximity after recording. Basically, one mic that feels like many.
Solid, simple, and built like a tank — the SD-1 is a mic that earns its spot in any setup.
