SE Electronics SE8SCC Supercardioid Capsules - Factory Matched Pair For SE8 Mics

The sE Electronics SE8SCC Supercardioid Capsules are a factory-matched stereo pair of interchangeable heads designed specifically for the sE8 pencil condenser microphones. Built with true condenser technology and a sophisticated backplate design, they deliver an incredibly detailed, transparent and tightly focused sound that is ideal for critical stereo recording where precision and control are essential.

Each capsule is hand-crafted, individually tuned and then carefully matched from hundreds of candidates to ensure virtually identical performance across the pair. With ultra-low self-noise, impressive SPL handling and a precise supercardioid polar pattern, these capsules let you capture everything from delicate acoustic textures to powerful percussion with outstanding clarity and minimal room interference.

Focused Supercardioid Precision

Engineered with a precise, near frequency-independent supercardioid polar pattern, the SE8SCC capsules offer tight front focus with excellent side rejection. This helps you isolate your source from spill and room reflections, making them ideal for live rooms, ensemble sessions and any situation where you need clean separation and accurate localisation in a stereo image.

True Condenser Transparency

Featuring true condenser technology and a sophisticated capsule backplate design, these capsules provide a natural, open and transparent sound. The response remains smooth and balanced across the frequency spectrum, preserving the character of your instruments and voices without unwanted colouration.

Hand-crafted, Individually Tuned Capsules

Every SE8SCC capsule is hand-crafted and individually tuned in sE Electronics own factory. The ultra-thin gold-sputtered diaphragm delivers superb transient response, capturing even the smallest nuances and dynamic shifts with ease. An ultra-precision electrode design ensures superb linearity and natural sonics, giving you a reliable, musical tool for demanding recording work.

Factory-matched Stereo Pair

For convincing stereo recording you need capsules that behave as one. Each SE8SCC pair is selected from hundreds of individual capsules to achieve the highest possible correlation across the entire frequency range. This results in virtually identical sensitivity and response between capsules, enabling stunning three-dimensional stereo images with accurate depth and placement.

• Supercardioid Polar Pattern - The tight supercardioid pattern focuses on the source while rejecting off-axis sound, helping you control bleed and room ambience for cleaner, more defined recordings in challenging acoustic environments.
• True Condenser Capsule Design - Utilising true condenser technology and a sophisticated backplate, the SE8SCC capsules deliver a transparent, natural sound that faithfully reproduces the source without harshness or artificial colour.
• Hand-crafted, Gold-sputtered Diaphragm - Each capsule features an ultra-thin gold-sputtered diaphragm that offers exceptional transient response, allowing you to capture fast attacks and subtle details from percussion, strings, acoustic instruments and vocals.
• Factory-matched Stereo Pair - Selected from hundreds of capsules, this matched pair ensures nearly identical frequency response and sensitivity, giving you precise stereo imaging and a cohesive soundstage for professional ensemble, choral and acoustic recordings.
