KSM32 FRONT
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
®
The Shure
KSM32 is a side-address condenser microphone with a cardioid polar
pattern. Designed for studio use but rugged enough for live applications, the KSM32
has a permanently-biased 3/4-inch diaphragm, extremely low self-noise, and an
extended frequency response specially tailored for vocal tracking and instrument
recording.
FEATURES
•
Class A, transformerless preamplifier circuitry eliminates cross-over distortion for
improved linearity across the full frequency range
•
Embossed, high-compliance diaphragm provides extended low frequency response
•
Ultra-thin, 2.5 µm, gold-layered, low mass, Mylar
response
•
15 dB attenuation switch for handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL)
•
Switchable low-frequency filter provides greater flexibility to reduce background
noise or to counteract proximity effect
•
Integrated three-stage pop protection grille reduces "pop" and other breath noise
•
Internal shock mount reduces transmission of handling noise
