sE Electronics BL8 Omni Omnidirectional Boundary Microphone

Omnidirectional Boundary Microphone with Condenser Capsule, 2 Character Settings, Low-cut Filters, and Pad

Perfect for Conference Rooms

With the BL8 Omni, meetings where one or more remote attendees struggle to hear the conversation happening in the room are a thing of the past! This version of the BL8 features an omnidirectional pickup pattern. An omnidirectional boundary microphone like this is dynamite for teleconferencing, courtrooms, and spaces where you need to cover a lot of ground with a single microphone. It’ll capture everyone around the table with absolute ease. The BL8 Omni is excellent in the studio, too. Sweetwater recommends trying it out inside a kick drum or as an alternative room mic. Three switches can be found on the back to engage the highpass filter, turn on the pad, and imbue the signal with classic or modern character. Finally, the BL8 Omni is compatible with Kelly Shu Flatz shockmount systems, which enable you to suspend the microphone inside a kick drum for extra low-end oomph.

Customize your tone

If tonal versatility is crucial, then the BL8 Omni will be your best friend. Sure, you can shape and sculpt your audio in post-production, but wouldn’t you rather do it at the source? Where other popular boundary microphone designs give you a simple 2-way contour switch to shape the sound, the sE Electronics BL8 Omni differs. It has a 3-position character switch for classic tones, modern clarity, or pure and untouched sound quality. You can further refine the mic’s sound with a 3-way low-cut and switchable pad.

Sleek low-profile design

The BL8 Omni’s sleek silhouette does more than provide good looks. By designing the boundary microphone to be small, sE Electronics ensures that it can fit into any space. Whether inside a bass drum, in the corner of a studio, or on a cluttered conference room table, there’s always room for the BL8 Omni. Plus, this boundary microphone is compatible with Kelly Shu mounts, increasing its versatility exponentially.
