Studio Precision and Focus: sE Electronics sE8 Supercardioid Small-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone Pair

Handcrafted Capsules with Extreme Off-Axis Rejection

The sE Electronics sE8 Supercardioid expands the acclaimed sE8 small-diaphragm condenser series by incorporating a precision-engineered supercardioid capsule. Built around a handcrafted, gold-sputtered true-condenser capsule, it delivers a sweet, smooth high-end response paired with tight, low-frequency extension. Its supercardioid polar pattern provides extreme off-axis rejection and high gain-before-feedback, making it the ideal choice for isolating acoustic instruments, drum hi-hats, cymbals, and solo performances in loud stage environments and controlled recording studios.

This package includes two factory-matched sE8SC microphones, windscreens, clips, a dual mic mounting adapter, and a deluxe road case for easy transport and protection.
