Product information "AEA SMP-1M"

The AEA SMP-1M is a professional 1-meter stereo microphone positioning bar designed for precise, flexible, and repeatable stereo microphone setups in both studio and live recording environments. Its extended length provides engineers with additional placement flexibility for a wide range of stereo recording applications.

Featuring AEA’s innovative sliding mount system, the SMP-1M allows microphones to be positioned with exceptional accuracy. This enables reliable configuration of popular stereo techniques such as ORTF, spaced pair, XY, and Blumlein while maintaining consistent spacing and alignment.

Originally developed for ribbon microphones such as the Coles 4038 and AEA ribbon microphone models, the SMP-1M is also fully capable of supporting large condenser and dynamic microphones. Its robust construction ensures excellent stability even when using heavier microphone combinations.

The modular design makes the SMP-1M highly adaptable for orchestral recording, drum overheads, ensemble capture, acoustic instruments, and room ambience applications. Engineers benefit from precise stereo imaging and repeatable microphone placement across different recording sessions.

Combining durability, flexibility, and professional-grade positioning accuracy, the AEA SMP-1M is a reliable solution for advanced stereo microphone techniques in demanding recording environments.
