The Sennheiser E 614 is a super-cardioid electret condenser microphone engineered for demanding instrument recordings with an extended frequency range of 40 Hz to 20 kHz, high SPL handling, fast transient response and compact form.
Extended Frequency Response
The E 614 delivers a nearly flat response across its full spectrum, making it capable of capturing both the low resonance and high overtones of acoustic instruments. Its ability to reproduce frequencies from 40 Hz to 20 kHz provides the detail required by professional engineers working with woodwind, strings, percussion and drum overheads.
High SPL Handling and Transient Precision
The capsule design allows the E 614 to manage very high sound pressure levels without distortion, essential for close-miking loud sources such as snare drums and brass instruments. Its rapid transient response reproduces the attack and nuance of sticks, mallets and plucked strings with accuracy.
Compact Design and Stage Control
Its slim, unobtrusive housing fits comfortably into tight stage setups, making it especially useful in percussion rigs and multi-mic environments. The super-cardioid polar pattern ensures excellent isolation from adjacent sound sources, reducing bleed and maintaining clarity in both live and studio situations.
Applications Beyond Overheads
Although originally designed for drum overheads, the E 614 has become a versatile tool for recording ensembles, solo instruments and home studios. Its medium sensitivity makes it suitable for both professional environments and controlled domestic recording spaces.
