Top-notch sound quality from discrete Class A components

The sE2300 stands out by utilizing carefully selected discrete Class A components, a rarity in microphones within its price range. Its state-of-the-art electronic components, with precise tolerances and surface-mount technology, deliver exceptional sound quality that rivals more expensive options. You can expect consistent performance, remarkable sensitivity, and a truly impressive sonic experience from the sE2300. It has proven its excellence across a wide range of applications and we are confident it will deliver the same outstanding results for you.

Versatility through multiple polar patterns

The sE2300 offers a range of polar patterns, making it highly adaptable for various recording situations. The cardioid pattern captures sound directly in front of the microphone while rejecting unwanted noise from the sides and room ambience. This is particularly beneficial for live performances where sound pressure levels can be high. The omnidirectional pattern captures sound equally from all directions, making it ideal for capturing room ambiance and a broader sound field. The figure-8 pattern captures sound from the front and back while rejecting sound from the sides, resulting in a figure-8 shape. This versatility allows the sE2300 to excel in different recording scenarios.

Low noise and high headroom

The sE2300 stands out when it comes to capturing dynamic content. Unlike some other studio-style condenser microphones, the sE2300 maintains a low noise floor while being able to handle high sound pressure levels. It can withstand up to 146dB (with the -20dB pad engaged), making it suitable for capturing highly dynamic sounds without compromising on quality. Whether you're recording a loud guitar amp or delicate acoustic instruments, the sE2300 provides the necessary headroom and performance to capture every detail accurately.

Enhanced flexibility with additional onboard options

The sE2300 is a versatile workhorse microphone designed to accommodate a wide range of sound sources. It not only handles dynamic sources such as vocals and brass instruments with ease but also offers additional features for sound shaping. With its built-in 80Hz/160Hz highpass filter, you can eliminate unwanted low-end rumble, while the -10dB/-20dB pre-attenuation pad allows you to adjust the microphone's sensitivity for louder sound sources. Whether you need to clean up your recordings or adapt to different sound environments, the sE2300 provides the flexibility and control you need to achieve optimal results.
