SE Electronics se2200a II Large Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Mic

The sE2200a II Cardioid is the single pattern version of the recently launched sE2200a II Multi-Pattern. Why update the sE220a and change it? The simple is answer is that it hasn't (significantly) - the sE2200a classic sound remains. The sE2200a II C features the same custom, hand-crafted 1" gold-sputtered diaphragm as the first generation sE2200a. The sE2200a II Cardioid features a low cut bass filter, 10dB pad and comes complete (for a limited period) with a new universal, black shockmount.

Many recording engineers prefer the black, rubberised texture of sE's new mics so the sE2200a MK2 has been given a face lift with sE's custom black rubber paint finish, which is both stylish and practical, helping to damp chassis resonance which many competitor microphones suffer from.

The sE 2200a II C is the latest in sE Electronics' lineage of sE2200 condenser mics dating back to the year 2000 (sE2200 > sE2200a > sE2200a II). It is highly unusual for a microphone series at this price point to be used in so many professional studios, and at such a high level... that's because, like all of our mics, the sE2200a and now the sE2200a II Cardioid, have been built to the standards you'd expect from the top 'boutique brands' like Neumann, but cost only the same as the mass-automated produced microphones from other well-known brands. Whether you need the flexibilty of a sE2200a II Multi Pattern or the sE2200a II Cardioid, you won't regret purchasing the UK's best selling condenser mic for the last 10 years.
