Designed for use with snare drums and toms, the sE Electronics V BEAT is a dynamic supercardioid microphone. It offers a low-profile design that attaches easily to the rim of drum heads. The mic provides highly accurate, naturalistic audio capture while keeping cables out of the drummer's line of sight and making it easier to maneuver around the kit without fear of accidentally striking a mic head.At the heart of the V BEAT is its DMC7 X capsule, which utilizes an aluminum voice coil for a transient-rich sound and a bottom end extending low enough to record the fundamental frequencies of toms and snares. Its supercardioid pickup pattern ensures little bleed, helping you isolate the sound source from other drums or cymbals. The capsule is suspended inside the mic to keep it decoupled from mechanical vibration, shocks, and jolts.Key Features Low-profile rim-mount design keeps cables clear of the playing area DMC7 X dynamic capsule with aluminum voice coil for transient-rich drum capture Supercardioid pattern minimizes bleed from adjacent drums and cymbals Patented internal shockmount for low handling noise on the kit All-metal rugged housing with gold-plated XLR connector Built-in windscreen for plosive and extraneous noise protection Specifications Capsule: Dynamic Polar pattern: Supercardioid Voice coil: Aluminum Magnet: Neodymium Frequency range: 30 Hz to 19 kHz Sensitivity: 2.0 mV/Pa (-54 dBV) Output impedance: 300 ohms Connectivity: 3-pin male XLR Dimensions: 61 mm height x 110 mm length Weight: 347 g In the Box V BEAT microphone Black internal windscreen Knurled nut for third-party mounting kits
