SE8

acoustic design with precision components, the off-axis response nearly frequency-independent and therefore avoids coloration in demanding applications. With a very short signal path, no ICs, and specially optimized Class-A electronics, the sE8 is one of the quietest microphones on the market, and by far the quietest microphone in its class. Moreover, the transformerless design enables excellent transparency and clarity. The completely new electronic design ensures a high dynamic range and a brilliant transient response without distortionThe switchable attenuation pad prevents overloading your preamp or mixer and provide extended dynamic range without compromises. Two switchable levels enable close-mic techniques for even the loud sources like brass instruments and snare drums. The integrated low-cut filters can be selected at either 80Hz or 160Hz. They help to eliminate low-frequency rumble or footfall noise or compensate for excessive bass (proximity effect) with close-mic techniques. The sE8’s all-metal chassis provides efficient rejection of any electrical interference and noise. Its high-quality finish ensures a great look for years to come.

The sE8 comes complete with a windscreen to avoid wind noise and a robust mic clip with thread adapter to fit with any mic stand.
