Universal Audio SD-5 – Supercardioid Dynamic Mic with Hemisphere Modeling

The Universal Audio SD-5 is a supercardioid dynamic microphone built for capturing huge low-end sources with precision and character. Designed for kick drums, bass cabinets, floor toms, and other high-SPL instruments, it combines a rugged vintage-inspired build with UA’s powerful Hemisphere mic modeling for a versatile, studio-grade tool that’s ready for any stage or session, available at Soundium.

Key Features

  • Supercardioid pattern: Tight, focused pickup ideal for isolating kick, bass amps, and low-frequency instruments.
  • Hemisphere mic modeling: Access detailed models of legendary Shure, Sennheiser, AKG and other classic dynamics, with full control over proximity, filter and axis.
  • Extreme SPL handling: Hand-selected capsule easily manages loud sources without distortion.
  • Vintage look, modern durability: All-metal construction with classic styling for dependable tour and studio use.
  • Post-recording tone shaping: Adjust mic position and proximity inside the Hemisphere plug-in even after tracking.

Customer Benefits

With SD-5, you get the punch, weight, and definition required for modern kick drums and bass-heavy sources, while Hemisphere modeling turns one mic into a full collection of classic low-end tools. Its narrow pattern helps eliminate bleed, making it ideal for loud stages and tight studio setups.

Pros & Cons

✅ Pros:

  • Focused supercardioid rejective pattern for clean, isolated low-end capture
  • Hemisphere modeling effectively replaces multiple classic kick and bass mics
