E 914 SENNHEISER
Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone

About

The Sennheiser E 914 is a small-diaphragm condenser microphone with an open and sparkling sound. This microphone is suitable for both recording and live amplification of instruments such as pianos, acoustic guitars, cymbals, overheads and percussion. Even a full choir or orchestra is captured beautifully. Drums have never sounded as lively as with a recording made by the E 914.

The sensitivity of the microphone is easily adjusted via a small three-position switch. The low-cut filter can also be set with a three-position switch, ensuring that rumble and wind noise stand no chance of ruining recordings or causing unwanted noise during live productions. Furthermore, the E 914 has a range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz and can handle high sound pressure levels.
