A Classic Reimagined The sE Electronics sE2200 is the latest version of the highly renowned condenser microphone that put sE Electronics in high-regard with the audio world. The microphone was made famous by musical legends such as Amy Winehouse, helping to revitalise the spirit of classic studio mics. The sE2200 is renowned for its polished and smooth sound, capturing every nuance of your source audio, perfect for studio vocal recordings.
Handcrafted 1-Inch Capsule At the heart of the sE2200 is the hand-crafted and custom tuned condenser capsule. The 1-inch true condenser capsule is used in conjunction with dual gold-sputtered diaphragms to achieve optimal acoustic performance. The externally polarised capsule provides optimal audio performance at every step.
Traditional Class-A Electronics sE Electronics have carefully selected the premium-grade components, to ensure the best possible audio performance and sound quality. The fully discrete components do not use any integrated circuits, ensuring consistent low noise performance and high sensitivity for a range of recording applications. The components are surface-mounted with tight tolerances, ensuring maximum signal integrity for incredible accuracy.
Custom Output Transformer Capturing the essence of classic studio mics, the sE2200 features a custom transformer, which results in exceptional depth to the overall sonic image. This provides an immersive stereo field, putting you in the centre of the sound for impressive sonic results. The shielded metal housing provides noise-free operation, keeping the signal tight and clean.
Switchable Attenuation & Low-Cut Filters One of the most convenient yet versatile features of the sE2200 is the switchable attenuation levels. The switch features both -10dB and -20dB pad switches, providing extended dynamic range for a variety of recording applications. This allows you to use the microphone for everything from studio-grade vocal recordings to capturing electric guitars and even drum overheads. The microphone also includes dual low-cut filter, helping to minimise and eliminate low-frequency rumble and unwanted noise. It also helps to compensate for excessive bass when used in close proximity to the sound source, ideal for recording vocals.
Robust & Sleek Design The sE2200 not only looks good but is designed to handle with the rigors of extensive studio and stage use. The all-metal housing ensures optimal durability as well as efficient rejection of electrical interference and noise. It features a gold-plated XLR connector for a reliable signal connection, ensuring a long-life span.
