SE Electronics sE6160 Supercardioid Shotgun Microphones, Pair

The sE6160 is a compact shotgun microphone designed for a wide range of audio applications. It delivers pristine sound quality thanks to its handcrafted true condenser capsule, ultra-low-noise electronics, and transformerless output. Its sophisticated acoustics provide outstanding off-axis rejection and high gain-before-feedback.

The combination of roadworthy construction and high-quality components create a shotgun mic that is reliable, even in challenging live environments. The switchable low-cut filters eliminate rumble or footfall noise, while also compensating for proximity effect. High sound-pressure-level (SPL) handling is achieved through sophisticated electronic design and switchable attenuation pads.

Reliable operation, even in demanding on-stage applications in difficult environments, is ensured by the roadworthy all-metal design, robust construction, and high-quality manufacturing standards.

Controls

Attenuation Pad
The attenuation switch allows you to reduce the microphone's signal by 10 or 20 decibels. This can be helpful for loud sources, preventing overload on your audio interface. When this switch is in its center position, it has no effect on the microphone output.

Low-Cut Filter
The low-cut switch allows you to adjust the bass response of your source. When engaged, the microphone's low-frequency response is rolled off at 80 or 160 Hz. When this switch is in its center position, it has no effect on the microphone output.

Recommended Use
Live Sound IEM crowd noise, On-set dialogue, Broadcasting in noisy environments, Spot miking orchestras for hard-to-reach instruments.
