Controls
These microphones have several switches, allowing you to get the best out of your voice or instrument.
Attenuation Pad
The attenuation switch, on the far left of the microphone allows you to reduce the
microphone's signal by 10 or 20 decibels, which can be very helpful for loud sources,
preventing overload on your audio interface. When this switch is in its center position,
the microphone output is unaffected.
Low-Cut Filter
The low-cut switch, second from the left, allows you to adjust the bass response to your
source. When engaged to the left, the microphone's low frequency response is rolled off at
40 Hz. When engaged to the right, the microphone's low frequency response is rolled off
beginning at 80 Hz. In the center position, the low frequency response is unaffected.
Polar Pattern (sE4400 and T2 only)
The two switches on the right side of the microphone control its polar
pattern. The right-center switch offers three settings. To the left, the
microphone is capturing an omnidirectional pattern. To the right, the
microphone is capturing a figure-8 pattern. In the center, you have two
options: cardioid or hypercardioid. The switch on the far right toggles
between those two polar patterns. Switch to the left for cardioid. Switch
to the right for hypercardioid.
Powering
To ensure proper operation, your sE product requires a Phantom power source that provides 48 Volts
according to IEC 61938.
Please be aware that Phantom power cannot pass through TRS connectors. A balanced microphone cable
with XLR connectors at both sides is required to provide Phantom power to your sE product.
Risk of damage
Do not connect your sE product to any power supply other than a Phantom power
source (input with Phantom power or external IEC standard Phantom power supply)
with a floating connector, using a balanced cable with studio-grade connectors to
IEC 268-12 only. This is the only way to ensure safe and reliable operation.
