Sennheiser
e 614
Small-diaphragm condenser · Supercardioid · 40–20,000 Hz
- A supercardioid pencil condenser at 93 g — an overhead that rejects more wedge than the cardioid e 914 does.
- Starts at 40 Hz rather than 20, which on an overhead bar is one less source of stage rumble.
Frequency response
No response curve yet.
MicSense only draws a curve traced from a graph the manufacturer actually publishes — it never estimates one from the microphone’s class. Sennheiser publishes figures for the e 614 but no response graph, so the numbers are in the spec table below and the chart stays empty.
Polar pattern
Generated from the first-order directivity formula for supercardioid. It illustrates the pattern type — it is not a measurement of this individual model.

What it gets used for
- Overhead
- Hi-hat
- Acoustic instrument
MicSense tags microphones by the job on a live stage, not by studio category — so you can filter for “kick in” or “monitor vocal” instead of working backwards from “large-diaphragm condenser”.
Compare it against the alternatives.
MicSense lets you put up to four microphones side by side — spec table, overlaid response curves and polar diagrams on one screen. Free with a free Squaresmile account.
