sE Electronics Z5600a II Tube Condenser Microphone

The sE Electronics Z5600a II is a professional large-diaphragm tube condenser microphone, recognized by top audio engineers worldwide for its versatility and warm, rich sound. At the heart of this microphone beats a premium vacuum tube (12AX7), bringing natural analog warmth, depth, and intimacy to your recordings, making it a perfect choice for both vocals and various acoustic instruments.

One of the greatest advantages of the Z5600a II is its exceptional flexibility. The included external power supply allows you to choose from 9 different polar patterns: from standard Cardioid, Figure-8, or Omnidirectional, to intermediate positions. This provides unparalleled freedom to experiment with room acoustics and find the perfect sound balance in any recording session. On the microphone body, you will also find -10 dB pad and low-cut filter switches, helping you easily handle powerful sound sources and unwanted low-frequency noise. The entire system arrives in a professional, sturdy aluminum flight case, ensuring safe transport and durability.
