SE E5 CONDENSER MIC - SE ELECTRONICS IN SOUTH AFRICA

The sE5 is the latest and best incarnation of our sE small-diaphragm microphone series. We've listened to our users' opinions and added more of what you need, and less of what you don't Introducing the sE5, our newest small-diaphragm condenser microphone. We've taken the sE5's predecessor, the sE4, and redesigned it from the capsule right through to the chassis. sE5 sets the new standard for small diaphragm microphones at its price, and is perfect for studio and live use The sE5 improves upon the high-quality performance of the sE4 with a smooth, full-range frequency response and excellent transient handling. It is the perfect choice for recording drums, percussion, pianos and any stringed acoustic instrument. Finished in matte black, the sE5 features a cardioid polar pattern, 100Hz bass cut and -10/-20db pad switches. It also includes a custom shock mount so you're ready to capture high quality recordings straight out of the box.   Cardioid Polar Pattern The sE5's cardioid polar pattern delivers a clean and smooth on-axis response, with off-axis rejection that's essential when recording the source instrument in-situ among unwanted noise sources such as other instruments or room ambience.   100Hz Bass Cut The sE5's 100Hz bass cut can be applied to decrease the level of proximity effect, which is typical behaviour in cardioid pattern microphones if placed very close to the sound source, or to isolate from low frequency rumble from other sources.   -10dB/-20dB Pad The two pad switches can be used if you're recording a very 'hot' or loud signal. For miking up loud sound sources such as drums or a guitar cabinet, the -10dB or -20dB settings will reduce the level output from the microphone to the connected microphone preamp, ensuring a high quality signal is delivered.   Matte Black Finish The matte black finish minimises the level of attention drawn to the microphone when used on stage or in the studio, allowing it to blend into the background.   Includes Custom sE5 Shock Mount
