DESCRIPTION
The sE7 sideFire condenser microphone combines precision engineering with innovative design, making it a powerful tool for modern recording environments. Its 90º side-address capsule allows for flexible placement in tight or unconventional spaces, making it ideal for acoustic instruments, drum overheads, underhead miking, and more. Built on the trusted sE7 platform, it delivers clean, balanced sound with smooth highs and a focused low-end punch. The ultrathin diaphragm captures fast transients with exceptional detail, ensuring clarity across a wide frequency range—perfect for everything from delicate piano notes to bold brass hits.
Discrete Class-A electronics and a transformerless output ensure low-noise performance, while the -20dB pad and 80Hz low-cut filter provide added control when close-miking loud sources. Housed in a rugged all-metal chassis with a premium finish, the sideFire is built to withstand daily use in studio or live settings.
It comes equipped with a mic clip, thread adapter, and windscreen, and is available as a single mic or a factory-matched stereo pair—making it a versatile and reliable choice for professionals seeking both performance and placement flexibility.
