Dualdyne Dynamic Handheld Vocal Microphone, Nickel

The Shure KSM8/N is a professional handheld dynamic vocal microphone designed for live performance and sound reinforcement. It uses Shure’s patented Dualdyne cartridge with two ultra-thin diaphragms and an inverted airflow system to deliver highly consistent cardioid performance across its frequency range, minimizing the typical proximity effect found in many dynamic microphones. The microphone offers natural mid-range and high-frequency reproduction with reduced need for EQ or processing. The rugged build includes a durable grille and robust handle construction, making it well suited for demanding stage use.

Features
• Patented Dualdyne cartridge design with two ultra-thin diaphragms (one active and one passive) and inverted airflow system for consistent cardioid pattern control.
• Exceptional control of proximity effect, allowing greater working distance without on-axis coloration.
• Controlled proximity effect for neutral mid and high-frequency reproduction and natural sound.
• Superior off-axis attenuation for rejection of unwanted sound sources and enhanced clarity.
• Re-imagined pneumatic shock mount and diaphragm stabilization system reduce handling noise without loss of low-frequency response.
• Neodymium magnet in aerospace SoftMag housing for high output level.
