SE Electronics sE8 Omnidirectional Capsules, Factory Matched Pair for sE8 Microphones

The SE Electronics sE8 Omnidirectional Capsules allow standard sE8 small diaphragm condenser microphones to have the omnidirectional polar pattern. Based on the highly acclaimed sE8 cardioid pencil condenser, sE proudly offers an omnidirectional option. Featuring the very same, sophisticated capsule backplate design and true condenser technology, the sE8 omni provides an authentic and transparent sound quality second to none. Every pair is hand-crafted and carefully selected in SE’s factory to ensure the best possible performance. With the lowest noise and highest SPL capability in its class, the sE8 Omni is the perfect choice for demanding applications like recording orchestras, ensembles, and choirs but equally good for solo instruments, vocals, and percussion. Outstanding stereo recordings require precision tools, i.e., microphones with high consistency and accurate localization. Therefore, at sE, every pair is selected by hand to provide identical performance. The result is the highest possible correlation over the whole frequency range and virtually identical sensitivity for stunning three-dimensional recordings. It has the perfect spherical polar pattern thanks to the sophisticated acoustic design with precisely machined components. The polar pattern is an almost perfect sphere, providing impressively pristine performance even in the most demanding applications without any coloration. Every capsule is hand-crafted and individually tuned in SE’s factory with the highest attention to detail. The ultra-thin gold-sputtered diaphragm delivers an impressive transient response that enables capturing even the smallest of nuances, and the ultra-precision electrode is optimized for superb linearity and natural sound, ensuring a consistently smooth and balanced frequency response.
