sE Electronics DYNACASTER DCM8 – Dynamic Instrument Microphone

DYNAMIC INSTRUMENT MICROPHONE’

DynaCaster was designed from the ground up to set a new standard in broadcast-style microphones. Its all-new DMC8 capsule and integrated DYNAMITE preamp deliver improved sound reproduction, greater sensitivity, and less noise than standard microphones from decades past. The capsule features a patented shock-absorbing system built into its body, eliminating the need for a bulky external shockmount. Best of all, three recessed switches on the back of the microphone allow you to fine-tune the DynaCaster to your specific sound needs.

The DynaCaster is compatible with all radio studio stands. Plus, the XLR connector is integrated into the stand to allow for discreet cabling and a low profile for on-camera applications. The internal, three-layer pop filter is removable for cleaning and is designed to offer enough protection for stop consonants to filter out those “fat” sounds and avoid having to listen to loud pops coming from outside. We’ve even included an external windscreen, just in case its use suits your preferences.

DynaCaster isn’t just a vocal microphone. It can be used for singing, recording acoustic instruments, and miking powerful amplifiers. All the features that make it ideal for broadcast or radio applications are enhanced when used to record musical performances.

When the DYNAMITE I/O switch (located in the middle) is in the “on” position, the DynaCaster’s internal DYNAMITE preamp provides 30 dB of additional gain, ideal for picking up vocals and softer sound sources. Phantom power is required for use with the preamp. In the “off” position, the DynaCaster operates as a completely passive microphone, requiring no external or phantom power.
