Shure microphone - KSM8, black

Shure KSM8 cardioid, dynamic, vocal microphone, which is the first among dynamic microphones, featuring a high-grade dual diaphragm.

It features the patented Dualdyne cartridge to combat the proximity effect and control off-axis rejection, as well as a patented diaphragm stabilisation system.

KSM8 redefines dynamic microphone technology for lead performers and engineers. In practice it eliminates the proximity effect and delivers unmatched vocal accuracy with minimal equalisation and processing, and is designed for use in large, complex sound systems.

KSM8 is suitable for studios, live performance venues and television broadcast productions.

The Unidyne III cartridge features a single diaphragm with a pneumatic shock mount. Besides the active diaphragm, a second passive membrane is incorporated, which is part of the cartridge's acoustic mesh and provides unmatched control of the proximity effect.

Dent-resistant, hardened carbon steel construction is lined with hydrophobic fabric, which provides exceptional protection against wind and moisture.
