sE Electronics BL8 Omni Boundary Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone

The sE Electronics BL8 Omni is an omnidirectional boundary microphone, utilizing the same capsule as the celebrated sE8 small-diaphragm condenser. Omnidirectional boundary mics are perfect for teleconferencing and other environments with a large sound-field. It is just as home in the studio as well when used as a room mic.

The BL8 Omni utilizes transformerless Class A circuitry to ensure plentiful headroom without distortion, while its low-noise electronics deliver transparency and clarity. The integrated low-cut filter and optional EQ shaping switch make it a very versatile microphone, excelling at immersive ambience recording, detailed room miking, and it can even be used on acoustic pianos. Thanks to its switchable attenuation pad, the BL8 keeps high-SPL sources from overloading your mixer’s input.

Robustly built, the BL8 Omni features an all-metal construction, a dent-proof grille, and gold-plated XLR contacts to ensure long-term reliability.

PRE-ATTENUATION PAD AND LOW-CUT FILTER

The integrated low-cut filter and attenuation pad switches make the BL8 a very versatile microphone, excelling at ambience recording, room miking, and can even be used on acoustic pianos while keeping high-SPL sources from overloading your mixer’s input.

INCREDIBLE DYNAMIC RANGE IN ALL AREAS

The BL8 utilizes transformerless Class A circuitry to ensure plentiful headroom without distortion. Its ultra-low-noise electronics enable demanding applications such as grand piano or room miking while also designed to reproduce low frequencies with stunning accuracy, the BL8 is perfect when paired with the V Kick, but can also be used alone, without an additional outer kick-drum mic.

GOLD-PLATED XLR CONNECTOR

Built to last, the BL8 has a gold-plated XLR connector to ensure loss-free, reliable signal connection for years and years of demanding use.
