Description

★KSM8 Dualdyne Cardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone

The KSM8 Dualdyne Cardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone is a true engineering marvel: the first dual-diaphragm dynamic handheld microphone. Featuring Shure's purest single-cardioid polar pattern to date, the KSM8 delivers stunningly faithful vocal reproduction and sound reinforcement. Designed for the most professional environments, the patented Dualdyne cartridge virtually eliminates the proximity effect and delivers flawless off-axis rejection, providing both signal clarity and feedback control.

- Patented cartridge design with two ultra-thin diaphragms (one active and one passive) and an innovative reverse airflow system.
- Significant suppression of the proximity effect significantly increases the distance at which sound can be picked up without on-axis coloration.
- Accurate frequency response achieved by suppressing the proximity effect enables neutral reproduction of mid- to high-range frequencies, achieving the most natural sound of any dynamic microphone.
- Off-axis attenuation is flat across a wide frequency range, providing excellent quality in removing unwanted sound sources and improving vocal clarity.
-Advanced hollow shock mount design significantly reduces handling noise without compromising low-frequency response.
- In addition to the hardened carbon steel grille design that is highly dent-resistant, the use of a hydrophobic woven fabric lining provides water resistance that is almost waterproof while significantly reducing pop and wind noise.
- Offered as a model equipped with a Shure wireless system, it is compatible with all Shure interchangeable head handheld wireless transmitters.
