Shure KSM9HS handheld condenser vocal microphone black

General

If you're looking for a microphone that picks up every tiny detail of your voice during performances, then the Shure KSM9HS is a great choice. It's even possible to switch its pickup pattern from hypercardioid to subcardioid and back again at will, giving you optimal control over your own sound and performance. The class A transformerless preamp allows for transparent sound and very low self-noise. Furthermore, the two gold-leaf Mylar diaphragms accurately reproduce every nuance and subtle variation, while the internal shock mount eliminates virtually all handling noise. It's a great mic that is perfect for use on stage, though it's also a great studio microphone!

KSM9HS: switchable pickup pattern

If you screw the KSM9HS's top off, you'll see a switch that allows you to switch pickup patterns from hypercardioid to subcardioid and back. Subcardioid is a less well-known pattern that is best described as sitting somewhere in between a cardioid and an omnidirectional pattern. It reduces the mic's directional sensitivity, as well as the proximity effect.

High-quality microphone

The KSM9HS's frequency range runs from 50 Hz to 20 kHz, and it's optimised for accurately reproducing your vocal virtuosity. All its components are of the highest quality, including the class A preamp. With this Shure KSM, you'll be adding a top-quality product to your setup that keeps proving its worth with every gig.
