e901

The Sennheiser e901 is a specialized microphone designed for capturing the sound of bass drums. Its pre-polarized condenser transducer makes it suitable for environments with high sound pressure levels, such as music performances and studio recordings. The microphone features a frequency response optimized for low-frequency sounds, specifically ranging from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, enabling it to produce clear and defined bass audio. The microphone comes with a half-cardioid pick-up pattern, which helps focus on the sound source while minimizing background noise. It operates through a standard XLR connector, eliminating the need for additional adaptor cables. The e901 does not require a stand, as it can be conveniently placed on surfaces like towels or pillows. The phantom power requirement is 48 V at 1.1 mA, and it has a nominal impedance of less than 100 Ω. With dimensions of 126.5 x 105 x 26.5 mm and a weight of 550 g, this microphone is both portable and easy to handle.
