Brief Description

The sE8 is a high-quality small diaphragm condenser microphone intended for a wide range of
studio and live sound applications, from acoustic guitars to pianos to drums and beyond. Thanks
to its custom design, hand-crafted true condenser capsule, and transformerless output, it delivers
pristine sound quality and an even, well-balanced frequency response.
The electronics and the switchable attenuation pads ensure a high dynamic range, with high
sound pressure level (SPL) handling capability and extremely low-noise components. The
switchable low-cut filters eliminate rumble or footfall noise, and can also compensate for an
excess of bass frequencies caused by the proximity effect. This enables the sE8 to close-mic
many instruments including electric guitar speaker cabinets, brass instruments and drums.
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.

Your packaging should contain the follow items. If anything is missing, please contact your sE
Electronics dealer and let them know.

Controls
The sE8 features a switch for the attenuation pads and a switch for the low-cutfilters.
Attenuation Switch
The Attenuation Switch is located on the upper back side of the
microphone. When switched on, the incoming signal is reduced by
either 10 or 20 dB for capturing of loud instruments and/or close-
miking without distortion. Using the switch also helps prevent
overloading the input stage of recording interfaces, mixing desks and
microphone preamps.
