sE Electronics V BEAT Dynamic Drum Microphone

sE Electronics V BEAT Dynamic Drum Microphone

The V BEAT is the most compact supercardioid dynamic drum microphone in its class, purpose-built for snare drums, toms, and percussion. At its core sits the custom DMC7 X capsule, the same high-grade transducer found in the V7 X, equipped with a specialized aluminum voice coil (lighter than industry-standard copper) that delivers an open, transient-rich sound with deep and clear lows and an extremely balanced mid-range, faithfully supporting the natural resonances of percussive instruments.

The XLR connector and stand mount are integrated in parallel on the underside of the flexible swivel mount, keeping cables completely out of the drummer's line of sight and eliminating the need for right-angle adapters or special cables. The V BEAT delivers a focused, articulate drum sound that performs reliably both on stage and in the studio.

Key Features

• DMC7 X capsule: custom aluminum voice coil (lighter than industry-standard copper) delivers an open, transient-rich response with deep lows and a naturally balanced mid-range.
• Supercardioid polar pattern: exceptional off-axis rejection efficiently isolates the drum from bleed and spill from surrounding instruments, both live and in the studio.
• Patented integrated capsule suspension: advanced internal shock mount decouples the capsule from mechanical vibration and shocks, eliminating the need for an external shock mount.
• Ultra-compact, low-profile design: parallel XLR connector and swivel mount integrated into the body keep the footprint minimal and cables out of sight, with no right-angle adapters required.
• All-metal housing and spring steel grille: die-cast zinc alloy chassis and dent-proof, corrosion-free spring steel mesh grille built for the rigours of daily touring.
• Gold-plated XLR connector: ensures a loss-free, reliable signal connection for years to come.
• Internal windscreen: reduces unwanted popping, plosives, and wind noise; both red and black windscreens included as standard.
• V CLAMP compatible: pairs seamlessly with the optional sE V CLAMP (sold separately) for additional vertical adjustment and an even smaller overall footprint.
