sE Electronics sE8 Supercardioid Small-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone

The sE Electronics sE8 Supercardioid is a small-diaphragm condenser microphone (pencil) with a supercardioid pickup pattern. The capsule features an ultra-thin gold-sputtered diaphragm and a precision backplate. The electronics are transformerless, Class A, and IC-free, housed in an all-metal enclosure with gold-plated XLR contacts.

Thanks to its narrower pickup pattern, this microphone is suitable for close-miking drums, percussion, brass instruments, timpani, acoustic guitar, orchestral instruments, and other solo sources. It features two attenuation settings and a low-cut filter at 80 or 160 Hz. A microphone clip with a thread adapter and a windscreen are included.
