re using the product.
• Make this instruction manual easily accessible to all users at all
times.
• Always include this instruction manual when passing the product
on to third parties.
Before operation
• Only connect the product to microphone inputs or power supply
units which provide 48 V phantom power as per IEC 61938
(48 ± 4 V, at least 3.5 mA per channel).
• Never open the housing of the product. If products are opened by
customers in breach of this instruction, the warranty becomes null
and void.
• Only use attachments, accessories or spare parts specified by
Sennheiser.
During operation
• Liquids entering the product can short-circuit the electronics or
damage the mechanics. Keep all liquids away from the product.
• Solvents or cleansing agents can damage the surface of the

• Do not expose the product to extreme temperatures.
After operation
• Handle the product with care and store it in a clean, dust-free
environment.
Intended use
Intended use includes:
• having read this instruction manual, especially the chapter

The e 914
The cardioid e 914 is a pre-polarised condenser microphone designed
for demanding applications which require a wide frequency response,
high sound pressure level, fast transient response and a compact
design. With its frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz, the e 914 is
able to capture the full sound of the instrument, while its cardioid pick-
up pattern isolates the microphone from other on-stage signals.
An excellent microphone for cymbals and hi-hat, the e 914 is also an
ideal choice for precussion, woodwind and string instruments. Its excel-
lent acoustic properties also make it a valuable tool for home recording,
the project studio and live stereo pair recording.
Features
• Condenser microphone
• Perfect for ambitious live audio recordings
• Excellent dynamics and vibrant sound for a wide variety of instru-
ments
• Processes very high SPLs
• Three-position bass roll-off/cut-off switch
• Three-position pre-attenuation

Sensitivity and bass filter
The e 914 is equipped with a three-position sensitivity switch (3) and
a bass filter switch (4).
Adjusting the sensitivity (3)
The microphone sensitvity can remain unchanged (0) or be reduced
by 10 dB or 20 dB. The latter is recommended when there is a risk that
the microphone or subsequent microphone input is overmodulated,
e.g. due to high sound pressure levels from drums, brass instruments,
etc.
Note:
We recommend that you mute the corresponding microphone channel
on the mixing console before connecting and disconnecting the micro-
phone cable, switching on and off the phantom powering or setting
the switches (see figure above).
Adjusting the bass filter (4)
The e 914 has been designed for an extended low-frequency bass
response. With certain live or close instrument miking applications, an
over-emphasis of the low frequencies can occur. This can be compen-
sated for by the 6 dB/octave roll-off filter. The cut-off filter reduces
low-frequency wind noise by 18 dB/octave.
Using the microphone
Positioning the microphone B
Percussion
Pos. Commentary
B.1 Position the microphone a few centimetres above the
outer edge of the hi-hat aiming down. If necessary, remove
unwanted low-frequency signal portions by high pass
filtering.
Attention: When closing the hi-hat, a strong air current is
created on the edge. If the microphone is positioned too close
to the edge, interfering noise due to the air current can occur.
B.2 Good starting position for live miking applications. If the
overhead microphones are only used for picking up the
cymbals, unwanted signal portions can be attenuated by high
pass filtering
In order to prevent interference due to crosstalk between adjacent
sound sources, try to position the microphone so that the interfering
sound source is located in the angle area of the highest cancellation of
the microphone (approx. 180°, see polar diagram).
