SE Electronics T2 Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone

Capture fast transients on drums and more with the T2 multipattern condenser. An innovative shockmount makes it easy to place flat against a drum or cabinet.

The SE Electronics T2 microphone is the ultimate combination of solid-state performance and versatility. Based on the chassis and feature spec of the acclaimed 4400a, but with the highly specialized capsule of the original sE Titan, it delivers full and perfectly balanced mid and low frequencies, while its titanium capsule produces un-hyped but ultra-detailed HF response. With the T2, your transients will never be the same again.

It is thus ideally suited for percussive sounds, including drums, percussion, the attack of a guitar, hammer action on piano, kick drum, slap bass, and hip-hop vocals.

The Titanium Diaphragm

Unusually, the T2 features a hand-crafted titanium-sputtered capsule. This is much stiffer than our gold-sputtered capsules, meaning quicker transient response, which is important when recording instruments that create fast transients and attack -- like drums and percussion -- as it enables the microphone to maintain clarity and deliver exceptionally accurate performances.

With the T2, you get the versatility of the 4400a's shockmount, patterns, filters and pads, plus a titanium diaphragm for the most immediate transients you've ever heard.

The stiffness of this special diaphragm also allows it to withstand extremely high sound pressure levels, so it can handle the loudest percussion with ease.

Custom Shockmount + Chassis

The T2 shares the shockmount of the 4400a. Here's what TapeOp has to say about it: "I don't think I've ever started a mic review read more by introducing the accessories first. But given the innovative design of the shockmount included...I can't help but get that out of the way so I can then move on to telling you what a great buy the mic itself is." - Tape Op Magazine

The flat, round-edged chassis design and custom suspension mount allow the mic to be centered within the shock, flipped around and used flat against a drum head or guitar cab, or angled outwards and pushed through inside of a kick drum. And at less than 3/4" thick, it fits neatly in the palm of your hand, but is built to take a beating on the road.
