Description

The Shure¬Æ KSM44A is a premium, large-diaphragm, side-address condenser microphone with multiple polar pattern options (cardioid, omnidirectional, bidirectional). The refined and sophisticated design of the KSM44A features externally biased, dual 1-inch diaphragms, extensive internal pop filtering and Prethos¬Æ advanced preamplifier technology for a ground-breaking threshold minimum of self-noise. The KSM44A is the premier choice for the highest level of professional studio and stage performance.

Features

A milestone technical achievement, Shure‚Äôs Prethos‚Ñ¢ Advanced Preamplifier Technology provides 4dB of self-noise and max SPL of 131 dB for a total dynamic range of 127 dB ‚Äì an increase of 7 dB that defines the new standard for cleanly nuanced audio capture
Multiple polar patterns‚Äìcardioid, omnidirectional and bidirectional‚Äìfor maximum flexibility in a wide variety of recording applications
Dual 1 inch, externally biased, ultra-thin, 2.5 Œºm, 24 Karat gold-layered, low mass diaphragms provide superior transient response
Class A, discrete, transformerless preamplifier for transparency, extremely wide frequency response and no crossover distortion. Minimizes harmonic and intermodulation distortions.
Premium electronic components and gold-plated internal and external connectors
Subsonic filter eliminates rumble from mechanical vibration below 17 Hz.
Switchable 15 dB pad for handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPLs)
3-position switchable low-frequency filter helps reduce unwanted stand vibration noise or counteract proximity effect
Integrated three-stage ‚Äúpop‚Äù protection grille reduces plosives and other breath noise
