## Long description

The sE Electronics sE8 is a compact wired studio microphone with an XLR-3 connection designed for recording and broadcast applications. Covering a frequency range of 20–20,000 Hz and offering a sensitivity of −32 dB, the microphone requires 48 V phantom power (consumption 2.7 mA). Its small physical dimensions (120 mm length, 141 g weight) and robust all-metal housing make it suitable for close-miking vocals, acoustic instruments and drum overheads in studio and live environments.
Advantages
The sE8 delivers a balanced, natural sound through a handcrafted true condenser capsule with a gold-sputtered ultra-thin diaphragm and a newly developed backplate design that provides consistent off‑axis response. Class-A transformerless electronics produce very low self-noise and high dynamic range without introducing coloration. Two selectable pre-attenuation pads (−10 dB and −20 dB) and two low-cut filter options (80 Hz and 160 Hz) add flexibility for handling loud sources and reducing low-frequency rumble. A gold-plated XLR connector and solid metal chassis ensure reliable connections and effective rejection of electrical interference.
Suitable for
Studio recording of acoustic guitar, piano and other acoustic instruments
Drum overheads and hi-hat capture
Vocal overdubs and ensemble vocal recording in controlled environments
Broadcast and voice recording where clarity and low noise are required
Live close-miking of brass, strings and percussion with high SPL

How to use
Connect the sE8 to a mixer, audio interface or preamplifier using a balanced XLR cable and provide 48 V phantom power. Position the microphone according to the source: for drum overheads place the mic above the kit to capture cymbals and room, for acoustic guitar position it near the 12th fret or soundhole depending on desired tonal balance, and for vocals use a close position with appropriate distance to manage proximity effect. Engage the −10 dB or −20 dB pad when recording loud sources to prevent preamp overload, and apply the 80 Hz or 160 Hz low-cut filter when needed to remove rumble or minimize proximity bass build-up.
Usage recommendations
Use stable mic stands and the supplied clip for secure mounting and maintain a clean, balanced signal path with high-quality XLR cables. For best results in critical recordings, check levels with the preamp before tracking and experiment with small adjustments in microphone placement and pad/filter settings to achieve the desired clarity and transient response.
