sE Electronics V Pack Arena: Bringing Studio Sound to the Stage
For the discerning drummer and sound engineer, the sE Electronics V Pack Arena is the gold standard. Where standard mic kits often fall short in detail or thoroughness, this pack offers a carefully curated selection of sE’s finest microphones. Each microphone in this kit was specifically selected to flawlessly capture the dynamics and transients of a drum kit.
Contents of the V Pack Arena:
1x V Kick: The most versatile bass drum mic with four switchable sound characters (from vintage to modern).
3x V Beat: Compact, powerful microphones for toms that minimize crosstalk (bleed) thanks to their supercardioid pattern.
1x V7 X: A dynamic microphone with an aluminum voice coil, perfect for a snare drum with “crack” and body.
2x sE8 (Matched Pair): Hand-built small-diaphragm condenser microphones known as the quietest in their class. Ideal for crystal clear overheads and detailed stereo imaging.
Why the Arena set is the best investment
Superior Isolation: All of the dynamic microphones in this set have a supercardioid characteristic. This ensures that you can mix each part of the drum kit separately without annoying crosstalk from the cymbals.
Compact Mounting: The included V Clamps allow for quick and stable mounting on drum rims. This eliminates the need for a forest of microphone stands around the kit.
Durability: The microphones have all-metal housings and dent-resistant steel grills. They are built to survive years of intensive touring.
Secure Storage: The set comes in a professional, foam-lined flight case. There is even extra space left for a hi-hat microphone (such as an extra sE8).
Who is the V Pack Arena for?
Whether you’re a rental company that needs a reliable kit for festivals, or a producer who wants to ensure a consistent drum sound in his studio, the V Pack Arena delivers performance normally found only in kits that cost twice as much.
