Shure KSM32C Cardioid Condenser Microphone (Studio Kit)
$729.00
Description
Overview
Traditionally, large diaphragm condensers are built around a 1″ capsule. The KSM32C rewrites the rules. Its precision-engineered ¾” capsule features an embossed Mylar diaphragm with thousands of microscopic indentations that lower the resonant frequency.
This delivers the smooth response and extended low-frequency performance of a traditional 1″ design, while achieving the exceptional off-axis rejection (up to 37 dB at 180°) typically reserved for small-diaphragm condensers. Combined with low self-noise, the result is cleaner, more isolated recordings that preserve the detail of the source. Ideal for vocals, instruments, drum overheads, and ensembles. The KSM32C/SM Studio Kit includes a shock mount, magnetic pop filter, premium case and threaded adapter.
Why It’s Better
- Exceptional Off-Axis Rejection: The precisely-tuned cardioid pattern delivers up to 37 dB of rejection at 180 degrees, keeping surrounding instruments and room reflections out of your mix. Ideal for upright bass, drum overheads, and ensemble sessions where clarity is key.
- Flattest Voicing in the KSM Line: A remarkably even response that delivers clarity without hype, revealing the source without imposing its own character.
- Premium Materials, Compact Design: A compact all-metal, lightweight aluminum design fits where other large diaphragm condensers won’t, with a precision-machined steel grille.
