Studio Microphones

The sE2300 is the multi-pattern version of the multi-award-winning 2200 condenser microphone, which sE Electronics made famous many years ago in particular for providing the user with an outstanding sound - especially for the price range - that is very well suited for a variety of applications such as vocal recordings, voice-overs and instrument recordings. The cardioid version became famous when world-class artists such as Amy Winehouse used it in the studio. And this multi-pattern version further improves the versatility and usability for any recording situation.sE has given the sE2300 numerous features that made its predecessor models the microphone that a whole generation of studio engineers love so much. The sE2300 is equipped with the same capsule, the same custom transducers and the discrete Class A circuitry that were used in the previous models. The state-of-the-art components, paired with a shorter, further optimised signal path, enable an enormously low self-noise of just 8dB(A).This not only makes the sE2300 one of the quietest microphones on the market in terms of noise behaviour, it is also - especially together with the new polar pattern, pad and filter options - one of the most versatile studio tools on the market that can show off its full class in any recording situation. Whether recording vocals or speech, drums, electric guitar or acoustic instruments, the sE2300 always knows how to impress.Just like the finest musical instruments in the world, the capsule of the sE2300 is manufactured and tuned by hand in the company's own factory in Shanghai. Unlike many competitor backplate and electret capsules, the capsule of the sE2300 is a true condenser capsule that offers the best possible performance in every respect.The microphone's new electronics and the two switchable attenuation filters enable a high dynamic range and can handle high sound pressure levels. The two switchable LoCut filters prevent impact noise and reduce the increase in bass due to the proximity effect. This means that even the loudest instruments such as electric guitar amplifiers, drums and wind instruments can be easily picked up using a close mic. Thanks to the switchable directional characteristics, the room components on the recording can be varied according to taste.The housing, which is made of robust, roadworthy metal, and sE's high manufacturing standards make the sE2300 a reliable workhorse - even in difficult environments and situations.The sE2300 is supplied together with the Isolation Pack (incl. elastic suspension, integrated pop protection and reduction thread).

Scope of delivery:X1 S microphoneIsolation Pack (elasticated holder including pop protection)3m XLR microphone cablesE X1 S - reissued and greatly improved:The X1 S is the new version of the sE classic X1, retuned and improved in every respect. With the hand-crafted and individually tuned 1-capsule as well as the highest dynamic range and highest maximum sound pressure level in its class, the X1 S offers the sound and features you would expect from a hi-end studio mic, but at a fraction of the price.Handmade 1 condenser capsule:Just like its predecessor X1, the X1 S is equipped with a handmade condenser capsule, which is manufactured and tuned with extreme precision by technicians in sE's capsule room. The technicians are carefully trained over a period of 18 months by sE's master capsule maker - who has around 30 years of experience in capsule construction - and are only allowed to actively participate in capsule production after this training phase. In addition, the technicians are only allowed to build capsules for sE. This results in capsules that are manufactured in the same way as the finest musical instruments in the world, and that can also master the challenge of recording these instruments as realistically as possible.Ultra-quiet electronics:The sE X1 already boasted very low self-noise. The newly developed electronics take the performance of the X1 S to a new level and make the microphone one of the quietest in its class with 9dB(A) self-noise. In addition, the new electronics also improve the sensitivity and the maximum sound pressure level that the microphone can handle.Two switchable attenuation levels:The two -10dB and -20dB switches extend the dynamic range of the microphone and open up a wide range of possibilities, especially for close mic miking - even for the loudest instruments such as super-heavy guitars, loud brass instruments or hard kick drums.Two switchable LoCut filters:The two selectable LoCut filters (80Hz and 160Hz) help to limit low-frequency rumble, impact sound or heavy bass.Metal housing and premium paint finish:In contrast to the cheaply constructed housings of other microphones, the solid metal housing of the X1 S prevents electrical influences and noise. The high-quality paint finish also ensures that the X1 S will look great for many years to come.Gold-plated XLR contacts:The gold-plated XLR contacts provide the X1 S with a loss-free and reliable signal connection for years and years and yearsScope of delivery:sE X1 S microphone, microphone holder, reduction thread, sE logo sticker, operating instructions with warranty card (English, German, Italian, French, Spanish, Chinese)

The reduced overall size results in an extremely compact appearance that combines all the typical design components of a Neumann microphone. The harmonious proportions and the high-gloss basket ring ensure that the TLM 102 is instantly appealing. When it comes to sound, the TLM 102 is really big: inside it is a newly developed large diaphragm capsule (cardioid) which, with a maximum sound pressure level of 144 dB, also allows drums, percussion, amps and other very loud sound sources to be recorded, for example. Even instruments that are not extremely loud benefit from the very fast transient response of the TLM 102, but the most important area of application is in vocals and speech, where a slight boost above 6 kHz ensures an excellent presence of the voice in the overall mix. Up to this point, the frequency response is extremely linear, which guarantees maximum freedom from colouration and a very clearly defined bass range. The capsule is elastically mounted for structure-borne noise suppression and a pop protection integrated in the basket ensures the suppression of explosive sounds during vocal or speech recordings. The TLM 102 is predestined for the home recording and project studio sector, but also for the broadcast sector, especially if particular value is placed on a clear line of sight to the speaker positions.

Our unique d:dicate dual-diaphragm omnidirectional capsule is at the heart of these fantastic microphones. This capsule gives the microphone its distinctive, well-balanced sound and bridges the gap between the exceptional sound quality of the d:dicate recording microphone series and our well-known d:screet miniature microphone series.Two miniature capsules facing each other are used in this microphone. Arranged as a double diaphragm, they form a capsule unit. This combines the advantages of small capsules with the lower inherent noise of a larger diaphragm surface. These capsules offer a fast impulse response and a wide frequency bandwidth. The capsules are combined with the preamplifiers of the outstanding d:dicate microphone series, which gives the sound more airiness and precision.

The Mangabey microphone from Monkey Banana was developed for vocal, speech and instrument recordings in the recording studio. 9 different characteristics can be controlled via the power supply unit.Especially for vocal recordings and acoustic guitars, the hand-selected 12AX7 tube installed in the Mangabey ensures a warm, natural sound.In addition to the microphone, the scope of delivery includes the power supply unit, a microphone spider, a 7-pin connection cable and a protective bag.

Neumann engineering:The newly developed transducer, which has been specially tuned for this microphone, impresses with its fantastic impulse fidelity. Unusual for a large diaphragm capsule is also the high consistency of the five patterns, omnidirectional, cardioid, figure of eight, with the intermediate stages wide cardioid and hypercardioid. The TLM 107 not only delivers optimum sound results in the cardioid position, but also maximum precision across the entire frequency range for all other polar patterns. The sound image always remains balanced with an almost linear reproduction up to 8 kHz and a soft boost of the highest frequencies, which gives voices presence and freshness. Particular emphasis was placed on the natural reproduction of speech sounds, especially the critical S-sounds. The speaker basket has been acoustically optimised to reduce susceptibility to pops. In addition, the transducer is edge-contacted, with both diaphragms at ground level. In concrete terms, this means significantly less susceptibility to dust and moisture.Uncompromising sound design:The transformerless circuit offers high linearity and great dynamics. The self-noise of just 10 dB-A is practically inaudible, while the TLM 107 is also very level-resistant. The maximum sound pressure level is 141 dB SPL and can be increased up to 153 dB SPL by means of pre-attenuation (pad). This means that the TLM 107 transmits even the loudest instruments without distortion. The bass roll-off with linear, 40 Hz and 100 Hz settings is precisely tuned to recording practice. The 40 Hz setting cuts the noise below the fundamental range (the open E string of the double bass is at 41 Hz) without any side effects, while the 100 Hz setting has been optimised for speech/vocals (100 Hz corresponds to the lowest notes of a baritone).Innovative operating concept:For the first time in a microphone, all switching functions are intuitively controlled by a navigation switch. The illuminated pattern display in the chrome ring is a visual highlight, while the switching states of the pad and low cut are indicated by LEDs to the left and right of the switch. The switch and display have been positioned at the rear so as not to irritate singers. The displays switch off automatically after 15 seconds.
