V8 Black — Professional Dynamic Vocal Microphone for the Stage

The V8 Black is a handheld dynamic vocal microphone designed for professional live performance, built around the newly developed DMCV8 capsule with an aluminium voice coil and neodymium magnet. Its tight supercardioid polar pattern keeps the singer's voice front and center while rejecting off-axis stage bleed, even on the loudest stages. With a frequency response spanning 25 Hz to 21 kHz and a sensitivity of 2.2 mV/Pa (-53 dBV), the V8 captures the full character of a vocal — from chest resonance to airy top end — with a finished sound that needs little EQ. The V8 Black is the right choice for touring vocalists and front-of-house engineers who need clarity, isolation, and road-ready reliability.

What Sets the V8 Black Apart

At the heart of this model sits the proprietary DMCV8 dynamic moving-coil capsule, engineered specifically for this microphone and refined beyond the design of sE's acclaimed V7. A built-in wave guide on the capsule tightens the supercardioid pattern for natural, open vocal reproduction while improving feedback rejection. The patented integrated shockmount isolates the capsule from handling noise, while the beveled spring-steel grille resists dents and corrosion and prevents the mic from rolling when set down.

Dynamic Capsule Design — Focused Vocal Capture

The capsule and pickup pattern determine how clearly a vocal cuts through a live mix. The V8 Black pairs a dynamic moving-coil design with a supercardioid polar pattern that focuses tightly on the source in front of the microphone while rejecting sound from the sides and rear.

• Capsule Type: DMCV8 dynamic moving coil with aluminium voice coil and neodymium magnet — delivers crisp top end, well-behaved mids, and full low-end extension
• Polar Pattern: Supercardioid — minimizes stage bleed and provides high gain before feedback in loud monitor environments
• Sensitivity: 2.2 mV/Pa (-53 dBV) — captures vocal detail with a finished, ready-to-mix character

Frequency Range and Signal Path — Full-Range Vocal Reproduction

A wide frequency response and balanced electrical specification ensure the microphone reproduces the entire vocal range accurately while pairing cleanly with standard stage preamps. The 300-ohm impedance and gold-plated XLR connector maintain a noise-free signal path across long cable runs.

• Frequency Range: 25 Hz – 21 kHz — extends from deep chest resonance to airy, detailed top end
• Impedance: 300 Ohm — matches standard live-sound preamp inputs for clean, balanced signal transfer
• Gold-plated 3-pin XLR connector — provides a secure, corrosion-resistant connection that holds up show after show

Road-Ready Construction — Built for Touring

The all-metal housing and spring-steel grille are engineered to survive daily touring, while the beveled edge keeps the microphone stable when set down on stage, on an amp, or on a music stand. At 340 g and 189 mm long, the V8 Black sits comfortably in the hand without feeling top-heavy during long sets.

• Dimensions: 54 mm diameter × 189 mm length — substantial feel without being unwieldy
• Weight: 340 g — balanced in the hand for confident handling during dynamic performances
• What's in the box — soft case, mic clip with thread adapter, switchable internal windscreen, and microfiber polishing cloth, everything needed to protect and maintain the microphone from day one

The Right Vocal Microphone for Touring Singers and Live Engineers

The V8 Black is built for lead vocalists who perform night after night on loud stages and need a microphone that locks onto their voice without fighting the monitors. Front-of-house engineers working with rock, pop, country, and metal acts will appreciate the high gain-before-feedback margin and the natural sound that requires minimal EQ. It also suits worship leaders, broadcasters, and podcasters who want a dynamic handheld that delivers studio-grade clarity in a road-ready package.

The sE Electronics V Series — A New Benchmark in Live Vocals

The V8 Black is the latest evolution in sE Electronics' V Series of handheld vocal microphones, building on the foundation of the widely adopted V7. sE developed the DMCV8 capsule specifically for this model to deliver more detail, openness, and headroom than its predecessor while retaining the road-tested durability the V Series is known for.
