sE Electronics Z5600a II

The polar pattern can be switched between nine settings, from omnidirectional to cardioid to figure-eight. A 10dB pad and a low cut filter are also switchable. This makes the microphone suitable for nearly any situation, whether for drum recordings, overheads, or choirs. Furthermore, the Z5600a II has received numerous awards and has garnered much praise for its natural warmth and incredible detail richness.

The attractive microphone comes in a wooden storage box, which is then housed in an aluminum case along with a large shock mount and a newly developed power supply made of brushed aluminum, as well as the polar pattern switch and cables.
