Sennheiser e 914
The Sennheiser e 914 is a professional condenser instrument microphone developed for crucial capturing in recording and sound reinforcement applications. The wide, linear frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz results in vivid, accurate reproduction of instruments throughout the full frequency range. The e 914 is an excellent choice for piano, drum cymbals, guitar, strings, and stereo ambiance capturing in live performances and sound design applications.
The microphone's capsule features a cardioid polar pattern for excellent rejection of off-axis noise while maintaining an accurate frequency response at full range. The e 914 features a -10 and -20 dB Pad switch that provide added headroom for signals that are excessively loud. Switchable low-frequency roll-off positions are also provided and eliminate noise at 85 Hz and 130 Hz. The e 914 provides the audio fidelity and flexibility necessary to excel as a workhorse microphone in any studio recording or live sound application.
Ultrawide Frequency Response
The e 914 features a 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response that results in accurate, transparent signal at full frequency range.
High SPL Handling
The microphone capsule is capable of handling sound pressure levels of up to 157 dB without noise and distortion.
3-Position Pad Switch
A 3-position attenuation switch provides -10 and -20 dB attenuation.
3-Position Low-Frequency Roll-off
Low-frequency, roll-off filter eliminates noise below 85 Hz and 130 Hz.
Cardioid Polar Pattern
The cardioid polar pattern provides excellent rejection of off-axis noise/audio while accurately reproducing the signal at the direct sections of the capsule.
