Enter to win THREE new Sterling Microphones
We’re looking for two studio testers to demo these awesome new mics in the Sterling lineup (total value $999). Got what it takes to win the “Sterling Mic Locker Challenge?” Enter below…
Can your studio use some new additions to the stale, tired mic locker you’re currently using? Here’s a chance for two winners to score a trio of great new mics from Sterling, and to add some new variety to their studio’s sound palette. Up for grabs are the ST170 active ribbon mic, the ST 169 tube mic and the ST155 large-diaphragm condenser mic. Each mic has its own unique characteristics and applications, and we want to see how YOU can use them creatively on some new tracks.
The two winners will chronicle their behind-the-scenes usage of the new mics through video and social media, as they incorporate them into their studio sessions. They will also be featured in an upcoming issue of Performer. Cool, huh!
Scroll down for more detailed info about each of the new mics, and good luck!
ENTRIES ARE NOW CLOSED . GOOD LUCK TO ALL WHO ENTERED!
