Recording sE Electronics Condenser Microphones

One of the core philosophies at sE Electronics is that since the world's greatest instruments are built by hand, the same level of care should go into microphones as well. In fact, the company splintered off from a larger factory so they could do just that. In their in-house capsule room, a team of technicians makes and tunes the capsules used in these recording sE Electronics condenser microphones by hand. It's not an honor reserved only for the most expensive models, either: every mic you'll see in this section, even the most affordable, have capsules that were given this hands-on treatment. And the difference is one you can hear when you put the mic to work in your recording setup.

Naturally, choosing the best sE Electronics condenser microphone for your recording will depend on exactly what kind of recording you're doing. For instance, if you like to record "in the field," you can give your sound quality a boost with a camera-mounted mobile mic like the sE Electronics ProMic Laser On-Camera Shotgun Microphone. Or, if you're outfitting a traditional studio setup, the best option could be something as traditional as the sE Electronics 2200a II Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone. This is one of sE's best-sellers, and it has a whole slew of awards to its name to show why - plus an integrated pop filter and selectable polar patterns to go with the hand-tuned brass capsule you'd expect from an sE mic.

Of course, there's still the sE Electronics 2200A II C Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone for situations where the cardioid pattern is all you need. That's one of the great things about this lineup of recording sE Electronics condenser microphones: there are enough options to choose from that it's pretty easy to pick out the best mic for your personal needs. Go ahead and take a look for yourself, and think about where you want to take your recordings while you're at it - and you'll find the right model soon enough.
