The sE Electronics sE7 is a small-diaphragm back-electret condenser microphone designed to perform equally well in the studio and on stage. Its optimized acoustic design, discrete Class A circuitry, and transformerless output combine to deliver clear, natural sound across the entire frequency spectrum. With a signal path free from ICs and transformers, the sE7 provides transparent, detailed reproduction on a wide range of sources — from the subtle expression of strings, acoustic guitars, pianos, and woodwinds to the punch and energy of electric guitars and percussion. The result is accurate capture of every nuance and dynamic detail.
The sE7 includes professional features typically found on world-class microphones. A 6dB/octave 80Hz high-pass filter allows you to reduce unwanted low-frequency rumble and muddiness. The integrated 20dB pre-attenuation pad makes it easy to mic louder sources such as toms, snares, and electric guitar cabinets without distortion. With impressive SPL handling and wide dynamic range, the sE7 captures even the most energetic performances with clarity and control. Its durable construction and gold-plated XLR connector ensure reliable signal integrity and long-term performance, even with frequent use.
The sE7 is a high-quality back-electret small-diaphragm condenser microphone designed for a wide range of studio and live applications, from acoustic guitars and pianos to drums and percussion. Its compact design delivers professional sound quality in any environment.
The sE7’s specialized capsule is designed for natural, balanced sound with an ultra-thin diaphragm for excellent transient response. Its cardioid polar pattern makes it ideal for most studio or stage applications, delivering great sound for almost any source.
Featuring a very short signal path and state-of-the-art transformerless electronics, the sE7 is one of the quietest microphones in its class. It reproduces instruments with pristine clarity, depth, and exceptional detail.
The -20dB switchable pad prevents overloading your preamp or mixer and extends dynamic range. This feature enables close-mic techniques for even the loudest sources, such as brass instruments and snare drums.
The integrated 80Hz low-cut filter helps eliminate unwanted low-frequency rumble or footfall noise and compensates for excessive bass from proximity effect when close-miking sources.
The sE7’s all-metal chassis efficiently rejects electrical interference and unwanted noise. Its high-quality finish ensures a professional look for years, and the gold-plated XLR connector guarantees reliable, loss-free signal transmission for demanding studio and stage use.
