SE Electronics sE2200: The Sound of Great Studios in Your Setup
The sE Electronics sE2200 is the direct successor to the legendary sE2200a and sE2200a IIc. Although the appearance has been modernized, sE has stayed true to the classic capsule design responsible for countless hits worldwide. This microphone offers a unique balance of rich low end, detailed midrange and silky smooth highs, allowing it to excel on virtually any source.
Why the sE2200 is the favorite of producers
Unlike mass-produced microphones, the capsule of the sE2200 is completely handcrafted and individually tuned in sE’s own factory. This ensures a consistency and quality normally found only in much more expensive brands.
True Class-A Electronics: The internal circuitry uses carefully selected, discrete components (no ICs). This results in extremely low self-noise and ensures that the microphone maintains its transparency even at high volumes.
Two Switchable Pads (-10dB / -20dB): Makes the microphone extremely versatile. You’ll effortlessly capture everything from an intimate vocal to an ear-splitting guitar amp or drum overheads.
Two Low-Cut Filters (80Hz / 160Hz): Helps eliminate unwanted low-frequency rumble or correct the proximity effect when you are very close to the microphone.
All-metal Housing: No plastic parts. The rugged construction not only provides durability, but also protects the electronics from electrical interference.
Instantly Ready to Record: The Isolation Pack
The microphone comes standard with the sE Isolation Pack. This includes a high-quality shockmount that dampens unwanted vibrations from the floor, and a unique, height-adjustable metal pop filter that effectively stops plosives (P and B sounds) without affecting microphone clarity.
Ideal Applications sE2200 :
Vocals: From bright pop to warm jazz and powerful rap.
Voice-over & Podcast: For a professional, “radio-ready” voice.

Drum Overheads: Delivers a wide and detailed stereo image.
