sE Electronics is the innovative microphone manufacturer from Shanghai, whose partnerships with Rupert Neve and Andy Munro have resulted in making it one of the most recognized microphone brands from China. In every product, sE Electronics usually offers unique technologies or design differentiators that also have contributed to keeping the brand top of mind. One of the company's most popular products, particularly since the beginning of the global pandemic are the SE Electronics DM2 T.N.T active inline preamplifier and the DM1 using Class A FET transistors. Both are robust all-metal, snap-on XLR-in/XLR-out preamp products that help turn up the gain from ribbon or dynamic microphones with low output.
Realizing the market need for good dynamic voice microphones that at the same time can leverage this type of preamp circuit as a built-in option, sE Electronics designed the DynaCaster. At the flick of a switch, phantom power (48V) will engage the DynaCaster's integrated Dynamite preamp to instantly provide an eruptive +30dB of clean and transparent gain. This makes the DynaCaster much louder than the typical dynamic microphone, eliminating the need for external inline preamps. And the DynaCaster also allows shaping the sound before any processing with 6 sophisticated equalization configurations via recessed switches.

Based on the proven capsule technology of the company's V Series, the DynaCaster’s DMC8 cardioid capsule captures natural and intimate sound quality for singers, podcasters, livestreamers, musicians, and audio engineers. Thanks to an integrated 3-layer pop filter and sE’s patented shockmount, the DynaCaster offers immediate plosive protection even against the most powerful of wind blasts, making it ideal for obstruction-free camera angles too, since there is no need for a bulky external pop filter or shock mount. And the DynaCaster is easy to disassemble and easy to sanitize, to ensure a safer studio environment.
The DynaCaster’s all-metal housing and premium finish is heavily shielded to avoid any electrical interference. With a wide swivel range, the DynaCaster’s parallel stand mount and gold-plated XLR connector have been tested to validate compatibility across a wide variety of microphone stands and even those articulated desk boom arms that are now sold even in supermarkets.
The sE Electronics DynaCaster has a recommended retail price of $329 USD or €269 EUR and comes complete with a thread adapter and black external windscreen for outdoor and on-location applications.
