Product Description
The sE Electronics V Beat is a compact, dynamic drum microphone designed specifically for snares and toms, giving you detailed, natural drum tone with exceptional isolation. Its ultra-low profile and integrated XLR/stand mount keep your setup tidy and out of the way, while the supercardioid capsule and patented internal shock-mount deliver a clean, focused sound that sits perfectly in any mix.
Whether you are tracking in the studio or setting up for a tight stage, the V Beat makes drum miking faster, easier and more consistent. With its flexible swivel mount you can precisely aim the mic at any part of the drum head, tailoring the balance of attack, body and overtones to suit any style. Add in rugged all-metal construction and you have a road-ready drum mic that is built to perform night after night.
Compact Design, Maximum Flexibility
The V Beat is one of the most compact drum mics in its class, with an extremely low profile that keeps it clear of sticks and clutter. The integrated parallel stand adapter and XLR connector reduce the footprint even further, making it ideal for tight kits, multi-mic setups and live stages where space is at a premium. Its wide swivel range lets you position the mic exactly where you want it without fighting with stands or hardware.
Natural, Detailed Drum Sound
At the heart of the V Beat is a specialised dynamic capsule with an innovative aluminium voice coil and powerful neodymium magnet. This combination delivers an open, transient-rich sound with deep, clear lows and a balanced midrange that flatters both snares and toms. By adjusting the distance and angle, you can easily control proximity effect and bass boost, helping you find the perfect blend of punch, tone and resonance for any drum.
Superior Isolation and Low Spill
The supercardioid capsule design provides excellent rejection of unwanted sound from nearby drums, cymbals and stage noise. This means less bleed into your snare or tom channels, making it easier to shape your drum mix and apply processing without fighting spill. Simply tweak the angle of the mic to further reduce hi-hat or cymbal spill and keep your close-mic signals tight and controlled.
Road-Ready Build with Smart Details
Built with an all-metal die-cast zinc alloy chassis and stainless spring steel mesh grille, the V Beat is made to withstand the demands of touring and regular gigging. Corrosion-free materials, a gold-plated XLR connector and internal windscreen all contribute to long-term reliability and consistent performance. The patented internal shock-mount efficiently decouples the capsule from mechanical vibrations, eliminating the need for an external shock-mount and helping keep your setup clean and simple.
Features
- Ultra-Compact Drum Mic - The V Beat’s extremely low profile and integrated parallel XLR/stand mount make it ideal for crowded kits and tight stages, keeping the mic out of your way while still capturing the drum exactly where you want it.
- Highly Flexible Positioning - A rock-solid swivel mount with a wide range of motion lets you aim the mic at any part of the drum head, so you can fine-tune the balance of attack, body and overtones and quickly adapt to different players and tunings.
- Supercardioid Capsule with Excellent Isolation - The specialised supercardioid capsule delivers a detailed, natural sound with strong off-axis rejection, helping to minimise bleed from nearby drums and cymbals and giving you cleaner tracks that are easier to mix.
- Rugged All-Metal Construction - With a die-cast zinc alloy body, stainless steel grille, internal shock-mount and gold-plated XLR connector, the V Beat is built for the road, offering reliable performance and long-term durability for regular studio and live use.
