sE Electronics sE8 Omnidirectional Microphone

The sE8 Omni is a handcrafted, small-diaphragm pencil condenser microphone engineered for ultra-transparent, 360-degree acoustic capture in demanding studio and live environments. Built around a true condenser capsule and Class-A transformerless circuitry, it delivers pristine frequency response with the lowest self-noise and highest SPL capability in its class.

Key Features

• Spherical Omni Pattern: Captures clean, natural room acoustics and sound sources from 360 degrees without off-axis coloration.

• Handcrafted Capsule: Features an ultra-thin, gold-sputtered diaphragm and custom electrode tuned for exceptional transient response and linear sonics.

• Ultra-Low Noise Electronics: Class-A transformerless design eliminates integrated circuits (ICs) for maximum transparency and wide dynamic range.

• Acoustic Tailoring: Includes two switchable attenuation levels to prevent preamp overload on loud sources (drums, brass) and two switchable low-cut filters (80Hz / 160Hz) to eliminate rumble.

• Tour-Ready Construction: Durable all-metal chassis provides effective RF interference rejection and heavy-duty reliability.
