Four selectable polar patterns
Loaded with four selectable polar patterns, the sE4400 is more like four mics built into one! No matter what source you’re recording, these polar patterns are up to the task, making the sE4400 an excellent all-around choice for musicians looking to stay within a budget. Recording drums? Flip on the omni switch. Intimate vocals or gentle acoustic guitar? The cardioid and hypercardioid patterns focus in on your source, rejecting all unwanted background noise. The figure-8 switch captures both sides of the mic — a setting that Sweetwater’s studio engineers love for capturing multiple sources, room ambience, or pairing with another mic for stereo recording configurations.
Included shockmount and metal case
Every great mic needs an equally great shockmount — luckily, you get both with sE4400! This mic’s included shockmount cradles your mic on its stand, preventing unwanted noise, vibration, and handling noises while recording. It also keeps your microphone safe and sound when rigged up, and while no one wants an accident to happen, the sE4400’s robust die-cast design is about as durable as a condenser mic can get. When it comes time to pack up the sE4400 after a session, an included metal case keeps the sE4400 in tip-top shape during transport and storage.

One of the standout features of the s E4400 is its hand-crafted 1-inch gold-sputtered true condenser capsule.

The gold sputtering on the diaphragm not only increases sensitivity but also enhances durability, ensuring consistent performance over years of use.
The microphone’s electrical impedance of 22 Ohms and its 3-pin male XLR connectivity provide compatibility with virtually all professional audio interfaces and mixers, allowing seamless integration into your existing setup. Powered by 48 V phantom power, the s E4400 operates with low noise and high headroom, essential for capturing clean signals even in demanding studio environments.

This adaptability saves time and equipment costs, making it a valuable tool for diverse recording scenarios.
Additional features such as switchable low-cut filters at 40 Hz and 80 Hz help reduce unwanted rumble and low-frequency noise, critical when recording in less-than-ideal acoustic environments. The selectable attenuation pads of 10 dB and 20 dB enable the microphone to handle extremely loud sound sources up to a maximum SPL of 157 dB without distortion. Whether recording a booming drum kit, a loud guitar amp, or a delicate vocal, the s E4400 maintains clarity without clipping, allowing for greater dynamic range in your recordings.
