sE ElectronicssE7 Small-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone - Matched Pair Black
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The black sE7 matched pair gives you two small-diaphragm cardioid condensers selected for closely correlated response and near-identical sensitivity. That pairing supports balanced stereo recording on acoustic guitar, piano, and drums, while each microphone is also presented for vocals, brass, and woodwinds. A switchable 20 dB pad raises maximum SPL handling to 156 dB, and the 80 Hz high-pass filter helps manage excess low end, rumble, and footfall noise when close-miking.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Balanced stereo recording of acoustic guitar, piano, or drums with a selected matched microphone pair
- Close-miking loud horns, guitar cabinets, or snare drums using the switchable 20 dB pad
- Close-miking sources where an 80 Hz filter can reduce bass buildup, rumble, or footfall noise
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Recording setups that cannot provide the specified 48 V microphone powering.
