Description

Whilst it still shares the same 1 gold vacuum plated diaphragm as the SE2200, the electronics are all new and much improved offering low self generating noise and therefore a better signal to noise ratio.

The SE2200A has a low cut filter, 10dB pad to and also comes complete with a very rugged aluminium shock mount. So now you can have all the versatility of the SE2200 with improved performance for the same incredible price.

Neumann u87ai and BAE 1073 MPF too dark?

...BAE 1073 are quite warmer-sounding choices, especially when combined together, against the pres in an RME UCX and a cheaper SE2200a MKII mic that I have on hand. I've attached some examples below. I think I like the U87ai through the RME. The reason for this post is to form some opinions and to ask some...

Bang for Buck

I have used this microphone to capture acoustic guitars, voices, electric guitars and some small percussive instruments. It has performed well for all of these uses, capturing the nuances of each instrument/voice whilst still remaining tonally balanced with absolutely no harshness. The cardioid...

A low price, large diaphram condensor microphone, the SE 2200a is a very capable microphone that holds its own against some far more expensive pieces.

Sound Quality: I found this microphone to work very well on a variety of sources. As the frequency chart here shows, there is a presence boost...

Having used this microphone a lot for more budget tight projects, I can say as a vary reasonably priced microphone, it delivers particularly well.

Sound Quality - as you'd expect from a budget microphone, this does not stack up to some more of the top of the range alternatives on the market....

The SE2200A has long been a staple ingredient in the murky, acrid recording broth served up at The UTC Studio. It sits as easily in the mix as the dirty great chunks of stewed steak, I say the dirty great chunks of stewed steak, from Fred Elliott's butchers sit in a bowl of Betty's famous hotpot....
