Beskrivning
The transformerless, Class-A circuitry in the BL8 ensures enough headroom to avoid distortion and an ultralow-noise signal with plentiful transparency. The tour-ready enclosure sports a dent-proof grille and gold-plated XLR contacts to survive the rigors of the road—the durable design can also support the Kelly Shu Flatz Isolation System, ideal for heavy touring applications. This microphone includes a carry pouch for safe transport.
Low Cut
Attenuation Pad
It is recommended that you initially activate the 10 dB attenuation when miking a kick drum. For very loud sources, you may need to activate the 20 dB attenuation. Moderately loud sources should be fine at the 0 dB setting.
Character
These options both cut and shape the low-mid frequencies to emphasize transients and punch. In its center position, the capsule's neutral response is retained, which is ideal for a plethora of other applications.
Swappable Capsule
Surface Mounting
The two mounting points are covered with black stickers; remove them with a sharp tool. Then, use a sharp tool to punch through the underlying protective foil, and mount as desired with screws (not included).
Delivering an all-metal, tank-like build quality and extreme flexibility for a wide range of live and studio applications, the BL8 Omni from sE Electronics is a boundary microphone sporting an omnidirectional, 3-micron true-condenser diaphragm for exceptional sensitivity in the low-frequency range, making it ideal for miking kick drums and similar bottom-heavy sources. With onboard controls for two different low-cut frequencies (80 or 160 Hz), two different attenuation levels (-10 or -20 dB), and two different EQ voicings (Classic or Modern), the BL8 Omni is versatile indeed, deftly handling ambient room miking, pianos, and more with exceptional clarity.
