The sE Electronics sE7 is a high-quality small-diaphragm back-electret condenser microphone, designed for a wide range of studio and live sound applications. Its optimized acoustic design, discrete Class A circuitry, versatile attenuation and high-pass switches, and transformerless output deliver clear, natural sound across all frequencies. The low end is punchy, while the high end is sweet and silky smooth. With a signal path free of ICs and transformers, the sE7 captures acoustic instruments such as guitar, piano, strings, woodwinds, and percussion with exceptional natural clarity.
sE Electronics not only designed a great-sounding microphone but also included professional features typically found on higher-priced small-diaphragm mics. A 6dB/octave 80Hz high-pass filter reduces unwanted low-frequency rumble, and the 20dB pre-attenuation pad allows close-miking of louder sources like toms, snares, and electric guitars without distortion. With class-leading SPL handling and dynamic range, the sE7 captures every nuance without fear of overload. Its durable build, gold-plated XLR connector, and consistent reliability make it a long-lasting studio essential. For maximum flexibility and value, a stereo pair is ideal — perfect for drum overheads and ensemble recording.
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.
