sE Electronics sE2300 Studio Condenser Cardioid Microphone

Description

Suitable for vocals, voiceovers, and instrumental applications, the sE Electronics sE2300 is a hand-crafted condenser microphone bundled together with an isolation pack. The microphone takes the same design as the sE2200 and adds a switch to change polar patterns for added versatility. You’ll find the same capsule design, custom-built output transformer, and class-A circuit topologies.

The dual, 1″ gold-sputtered diaphragms give you cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8 polar pattern options. Each capsule is hand-crafted and individually tuned in the factory. The included isolation pack features a shockmount that uses a single twist-knob for easy setup and breakdown. Also included is sE’s curved metal pop filter, which efficiently slots into the shockmount and is vertically adjustable. A thread adapter and an sE logo sticker are supplied as well.

 

Traditional Class-A Electronic Design
Carefully selected, discrete components ensure professional sound quality on any source
Microphone’s design avoids using any ICs (integrated circuits)
Low noise, consistent performance, and high sensitivity are provided by surface-mounted electronic components with extremely tight tolerances
Two Switchable Attenuation Levels and Low-Cut Filters
The -10 and -20 dB pad switches provide extended dynamic range, enabling a wide variety of applications and close-mic techniques for even the loudest instruments
Selectable at either 80 or 160 Hz, the low-cut filter helps eliminate low-frequency rumble or footfall noise, and helps compensate for excessive bass (proximity effect) with close-mic techniques
Custom-Built Output Transformer
Reviving the spirit of classic studio microphones, the sE2300’s custom transformer is designed to provide superb depth and weight to the overall sonic image, while the heavy-shielded metal housing ensures noise-free operation

All-Metal Housing and Premium Finish
The sE2300’s all-metal chassis provides efficient rejection of electrical interference and noise.
Gold-Plated XLR Connector
Ensures loss-free, reliable signal connection
