The Voodoo VR1 ribbon microphone from sE electronics marks a new era for ribbon mic technology. Until the Voodoo Series, one of the only ribbon mics in the world to perform across 20Hz–20kHz was sE's own Rupert Neve collaboration, the RNR1. This was achieved using state-of-the-art custom transformers and a Rupert Neve-designed circuit to reveal HF usually absent.

With the Voodoo mics, full frequency response is achieved using a clever mechanical device designed by Siwei Zou, the company CEO, and a hand-tensioned ribbon constructed by highly specialized technicians in sE's capsule room. The result is a superbly detailed, open and natural recording of acoustic instruments and guitar cabs. The Voodoo's ability to perform—coupled with its unique look—have already made it a secret weapon for thousands of players worldwide.
