sE Electronics sE2200 – Studio Large-Diaphragm Condenser Mic

The sE2200 is built for singers, session vocalists, and recording engineers who want a polished, detailed condenser mic that handles both delicate and loud sources with grace. With its handcrafted capsule, switchable filters and pads, and robust build, it’s ideal for studio use.

Galvenās iezīmes

• Hand-crafted 1-inch true condenser capsule: Smooth, consistent sound with rich detail and clarity.
• Gold-sputtered dual diaphragm design: Enhances sensitivity and improves sonic depth in vocals, acoustic instruments, and more.
• Switchable attenuation pads (-10 / -20 dB): Lets you capture loud sound sources without distortion by reducing signal level.
• Low-cut filters at 80 / 160 Hz (6 dB/octave): Removes rumble, proximity effect, or low-end boom when close-miking.
• All-metal housing & gold-plated XLR connector: Durable, reliable build that handles stage or studio abuse with minimal noise interference.
• High SPL capability up to 145 dB (with pad): Handles very loud sources like kick drums, guitar cabs, brass without clipping or distortion.

Priekšrocības

Using the sE2200 means you get a microphone that adapts to many situations: crisp vocals, bold instrument mics, and even louder on-stage or drum overhead duties. The filters and pads give flexibility to control noise and dynamics, while the solid build ensures performance is consistent session after session. Sound-quality doesn’t suffer when you push the mic hard.
