Sennheiser e 608 Dynamic Supercardioid Instrument Microphone
A compact dynamic instrument microphone with a supercardioid pattern, designed to be clipped directly onto brass, woodwind and drums. Because it is a dynamic capsule it handles very high sound-pressure levels close-up without distortion, while the flexible gooseneck and multifunctional clip make placement quick and discreet.
Key Features
Dynamic Capsule
A dynamic transducer copes with loud sources at close range without distorting, so it suits horns and drums.
Supercardioid Pattern
A tight supercardioid pickup improves separation on a busy stage and helps control feedback.
Flexible Gooseneck & Clip
The gooseneck and multifunctional clip attach to the instrument and let you aim the capsule precisely.
Rugged Fibreglass Housing
A reinforced glass-fibre body with a tear-resistant cable is built for the wear of regular gigging.
Hum-Compensating Coil
An integrated hum-compensating coil helps protect the signal from induced electrical interference.
Effective Shock Mount
Internal damping isolates the capsule from impact and structure-borne noise during play.
