Overview

An innovation in wireless.

As the first-ever dual-diaphragm dynamic handheld microphone, the premium KSM8 Dualdyne Cardioid Vocal Dynamic Microphone is a groundbreaking feat of engineering design. It is meticulously crafted for revolutionary vocal reproduction and sound-reinforcement control for world-class live performance in top-tier professional venues. Featuring the single purest cardioid polar pattern that Shure has developed to date, the patented Dualdyne cartridge of the KSM8 virtually eliminates proximity effect and masters off-axis rejection while providing sound professionals the signal clarity typical of condenser microphones without processing, along with the reliability of dynamic microphone feedback control

Features

  • Patented cartridge design featuring two ultra-thin diaphragms (one active and one passive) and groundbreaking inverted airflow system

    Exceptional control of proximity effect vastly increases working distance without on-axis coloration

    Accurate frequency response due to controlled proximity effect which allows for neutral mid-and-high

    frequency reproduction, resulting in the most natural sounding dynamic microphone available

    Off-axis attenuation is flat and broad resulting in superior quality of rejection of unwanted sound sources for

    increased vocal clarity

    Neodymium magnet resides in a micro-injection mold of aerospace SoftMag material that maximizes the

    magnetic field for maximum output level

    The Dualdyne cartridge re-images the longstanding Shure Pumping Pneumatic Shock Mount design with an

    elaborate mathematical architecture of tuned cavities, specific resistances and precisely machined components that are fully integrated into the cartridge’s acoustic properties  This results in exceptional rejection of handling noise without any loss of low frequency response

    Patent Pending Diaphragm Stabilization System (DSS) Technology protects and stabilizes the active diaphragm from unwanted excursion or rocking during plosives or impact, providing substantial protection against high frequency handling noise

    Cutting-edge cartridge manufacturing methods utilize ultra-sonic and internal laser welding to provide best-in- class mechanical reliability

    Dent-resistant, hardened carbon-steel grille design lined with hydrophobic woven fabric provides exceptional plosive and wind protection, while offering virtually waterproof protection

    Aluminum handle with brushed nickel or black finish
