Sennheiser e604: Engineering for the field
The first thing that strikes you about the e604 is its compact size. But don't let its small size fool you. This cardioid dynamic microphone is housed in a reinforced fiberglass casing, capable of withstanding stray drumsticks without flinching. It's the kind of equipment you buy once and keep for a lifetime.
Technical characteristics
- Réponse en fréquence musclée : Avec une plage allant de 40 Hz à 18 kHz, il capte l'attaque sèche de la baguette tout en respectant la résonance profonde des fûts.
- Encaisse la pression (SPL) : Il peut gérer des niveaux de pression acoustique dépassant les 160 dB. En clair ? Même le batteur le plus énergique de votre "band" de métal ne réussira pas à faire saturer la capsule.
- Precise cardioid polar pattern: Its polar pattern is exemplary for isolating the sound source. You get a clear sound on your tom without the crash cymbals polluting your mix.
- Hum compensation coil: Inside, a sophisticated coil eliminates electromagnetic interference, ensuring a pure signal, even near amplifiers or complex lighting.
Your questions
The Sennheiser e604 is renowned for its robustness and ability to capture the complex dynamics of drums and brass instruments. Its compact design allows for precise positioning, even in the most demanding stage environments. The optimized frequency response ensures impeccable sonic clarity.
Users appreciate its ability to handle high sound pressure levels without distortion, making it ideal for live performances. Its durable construction is often highlighted as a major advantage for touring.
- Professional drummers
- Live trumpeters and saxophonists
- Sound technicians on tour
Absolutely! Although it is the king of toms, its frequency response makes it excellent for brass instruments (saxophones, trumpets) and even for miking some electric guitar cabinets if you are looking for a sound with a lot of bite.
Little effort is required. A quick wipe with a dry cloth on the body and occasional cleaning of the grille to remove dust are all it takes. Its dynamic design (no battery or phantom power needed) makes it one of the simplest and most durable microphones to own.
