" Vintage versatility at its finest ". Four polar patterns, a vintage-style brass capsule, two bass cutouts and two pads.
Like a few particularly well-known classic European capacitors, the 4400a is a true all-rounder. You can put it on almost anything and it sounds great. Unfortunately for many studio owners, these "classic capacitors" are often not what they used to be. Capsule designs change over time, capacitors dry out, metal switches are replaced with plastic buttons and LEDs, and microphones that were once so versatile are now mere shadows of their former selves.
4400a sounds good on everything. Vocals, guitars, tambourines, overheads, classical pianos, strings, you name it. Its tonal versatility is unmatched, and completely without the flaws and imperfections that the old vintage microphones carried with them.
HANDMADE CAPSULES
As with all sE microphones, the 4400a's back-to-back brass-ringed capsules are hand-built and hand-tuned by our skilled technicians, just like any fine musical instrument.
CUSTOM SHOCKMOUNT + CHASSIS
The flat, rounded chassis design and custom suspension brackets allow the mic to be centered within the shock, flipped around and used flat against a drumhead or guitar cab, or angled outward and pushed through inside a drum. And at less than 3/4" thick, it fits nicely in the palm of your hand, but is built to take a beating on the road.
NON-reflective paint
The microphone has a unique, black, non-reflective, non-marking, rubberized finish that is ideal for live stage, theater, TV and broadcast applications that require lighting.
