sE Electronics strives for clarity
The sE7 and sE7 Stereo Pair have been reworked to offer more consistent gain and less noise
sE Electronics has released a back-electret, small-diaphragm condenser microphone intended for a wide range of studio and live applications with acoustic guitars, pianos, drums and more. The microphones feature Class-A circuitry, low-cut switches and a transformerless output to improve clarity and a more natural sound, ‘without suffering from the fizzy highs or lack of low-frequency punch’. The sE7 and sE7 Stereo Pair have also been reworked to offer more consistent gain and less noise.
An active inline preamp intended to be inserted between a dynamic or passive ribbon microphone and a microphone preamplifier has also been released by the company. The DM1 Dynamite can be used to boost the signal from a passive mic for studio podcasting or on-stage use. It provides +28dB of Class-A gain and the manufacturer claims that it offers nearly half the noise, lower output impedance and more consistent gain than any other inline mic preamp on the market.
Finally, sE Electronics has also released an updated and refined version of its sE2200. The sE2300 is a multi-platform version of the condenser and features a handcrafted true condenser capsule, two attenuation pads, two low-cut filters and the same Class-A circuitry as its sibling. The sE2300 preserves the same clarity and tonality as its predecessor but adds both omnidirectional and figure-8 polar patterns to reportedly increase versatility.
