The cardioid polar pattern and precision backplate of this music microphone ensure a balanced tone, even when mic placement isn’t ideal, making it a reliable instrument mic for complex setups. Two switchable attenuation pads (-10 dB and -20 dB) give this bass drum mic the headroom needed to capture high-SPL sources like snare drums and brass. Dual low-cut filters (80 Hz and 160 Hz) help the sE8 XLR cardioid condenser microphone reduce rumble, footfall noise, and proximity effect, offering greater control over your sound. Designed for durability, sE8 overhead stage mics feature an all-metal housing and a gold-plated XLR connector for a reliable, loss-free signal. Add the Omni capsule to transform one into a highly accurate RTA microphone.
