With it's top notch acoustic properties, the Sennheiser E614 condenser instrument microphone is also perfect for at-home recording.

TheSennheiserE614 is a supercardioid back-electret condenser microphone, designed for demanding instrument recordings that require extended frequency response, high SPL, fast transient response and compact mic size. While percussion pick-up was the first design priority, the e 614 also works exceptionally well on woodwind and string instruments, and is a good choice for flute and sax where it captures the full body of the instrument. The e 614 can handle high SPLs and features a medium sensitivity, which ensures reduced bleed from other instruments on stage. Because of its excellent acoustic properties this mic is also ideal for home recording.

• Designed for demanding applications where extended frequency range, high SPL, fast transient response and small size are required

• Nearly flat response from 40 Hz to 20 kHz and a super cardioid pattern
