SE Electronics Instrument Reflexion Filter
The Instrument Reflexion Filter incorporates much of the award-winning innovation of its bigger brother, the Reflexion Filter. It consists of a small curved wall of punched Aluminum with 3 layers of polyester fiberboard separated by air gaps. This combination effectively reduces room ambience and isolates the mic from ambient noise. Using a 12” gooseneck arm, the 1.5 lb IRF easily attaches to any microphone stand. A 1.125” mounting provision allows a pencil mic or other small diaphragm, end-address microphone to be positioned through the center of the arc. This is especially useful when close miking drums (to help with track separation) or overhead miking. The IRF is ideal for use with pianos, drums and wind instruments. Recommended for: Percussion, overheads, guitar amplifiers, pianos and wind instruments.
How does it work?
The various layers both absorb and diffuse the sound waves hitting them, so progressively less of the original source acoustic energy passes through each layer. This reduces the amount of energy hitting un-treated walls and other surfaces so there is less of the original source reflected back as unwanted room ambience to the mic. The Reflexion Filter also helps prevent any reflected sound reaching the back and sides of the mic. Its shape and size have been carefully tested to maximize absorption while keeping ‘coloration’ down to only around 1dB, and leaving the microphone’s polar pattern unaffected.
