Philips was once the largest tech company in Europe, the world leader in lighting, radio and physical media, the third largest electronics company in the world, etc. Today they are almost irrelevant. Here’s why.
The Story Behind – ep. 95
Today I examine a brand-new budget plan program dynamic mic, the sE Electronics DCM 3 and DCM 6. The DCM 3 is rather equivalent to various other $100 “broadcast” characteristics, but the DCM6 has a constructed in mic activator that makes it louder than a condenser!

Today I review a large diaphragm condenser mic from sE Electronics; the sE 2200a II C. This mic has a relatively flat frequency response, which is great. It will give you a more accurate to life representation of what you’re recording, but you will likely need to do some post processing to shape the tone you want. It also has a -10dB pad and a low cut filter which rolls off around 60Hz. All around it sounds great for the price if you’re looking for a neutral & uncolored mic.

Today I review the new mic from sE Electronics, the Dynacaster. This is an extremely versatile mic that has multiple EQ switches and most importantly a built in dynamite mic activator / preamp. As far as a general purpose studio microphone, this thing is very appealing.
