Shure Ksm8B Dynamic Microphone

Description

Shure Ksm8B Dynamic Microphone

The KSM8 Dualdyne Dynamic Cardioid Vocal Microphone is the first dual-diaphragm premium microphone specifically designed for vocal reproduction and optimized sound reinforcement systems. The patented Dualdyne capsule virtually eliminates proximity effect, controls off-axis rejection, and ensures a clear signal while limiting possible feedback.

KEY FEATURES

Patented capsule design with two ultra-thin diaphragms (one active and one passive) and an innovative inverted airflow system that allows for an exceptionally uniform cardioid polar pattern across the entire frequency spectrum.

The accurate frequency response, useful for controlling the proximity effect, allows for neutral reproduction of mid and high frequencies, ensuring the most natural sound reproducible by a dynamic microphone.

Exceptional control of the proximity effect, greatly improved for performers who perform at a distance from the microphone, without on-axis coloration.

Off-axis attenuation is flat and wide, allowing for greater rejection of sounds from unwanted sources, increasing vocal clarity.

The Dualdyne capsule redefines Shure's Pumping Pneumatic Shock Mount design, maintaining the inherent solidity and construction accuracy of the components, perfectly integrated with the capsule's properties.

The patented Diaphragm Stabilization System (DSS) technology protects and stabilizes the active diaphragm from unwanted excursions and oscillations that characterize loud or impactful sounds, providing protection against high-frequency handling noise.

State-of-the-art manufacturing methods allow for ultrasonic capsule cutting and laser welding, ensuring the best mechanical reliability on the market.

The neodymium magnet resides in a micro-injection molded aerospace-grade Softmag material that maximizes the magnetic field, ensuring maximum output level.

The durable grille constructed from a special hardened steel-carbon alloy and coated with hydrophobic fabric offers exceptional wind defense, providing virtually total protection.

Brushed aluminum handle with black or nickel finish.
