Product Description

sE Electronics have a reputation for building some great mics, and are quickly becoming recognised as one of the biggest hitters in the industry. The sE8 may be small, but it's a monster when it comes to recording. It is amazingly crisp, clear and true. Ideally suited to be used as a matched pair, the sE8 is great for acoustic guitars, acoustic pianos, drum over-heads, miking up amps. The list is endless. The sE8 is an incredibly versatile mic, one that should have a place in every sound engineer's recording arsenal.

The mic 'sounds' great, but it has a high output at 750kHz (yes 0.75MHz). The makers have not yet responded with a reason for this.

I haven't used it much yet, but I am impressed so far. Works well with the input on my Focusrite Scarlett.
