The Shure KSM137 is an end-address condenser microphone with a cardioid polar pattern. Designed for studio use, yet rugged enough for live applications.

Description

The Shure KSM137 is an end-address condenser microphone with a cardioid polar pattern. Designed for studio use, yet rugged enough for live applications. the KSM137 can withstand extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL). Its low self-noise and extended frequency response make it ideal for recording musical instruments.

Features

  • A highly consistent cardioid polar pattern.
  • Ultra-thin, 2.5 micron, 24 karat gold-layered, low mass Mylar® diaphragm for superior transient response.
  • Class A, discrete, transformerless preamplifier for transparency, extremely fast transient response, and no crossover distortion
  • Premium electronic components, including gold-plated internal and external connectors.
  • Subsonic filter eliminates low frequency rumble (less than 17 Hz) caused by mechanical vibration.
  • Switchable 15 dB pad for handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPLs).
  • Three-position switchable pad (0 dB, 15 dB, and 25 dB) for handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPLs).
  • Three-position switchable low-frequency filter reduces background noise and counteracts proximity effect.
