Shure KSM40C Cardioid Condenser Microphone with Shock Mount

Featuring a precision engineered 1” capsule, the KSM40C delivers natural, detailed audio with rich low-end, and high frequency detail that sitsbeautifully in a mix without brightness or harshness. A proprietary backplate design controls diaphragm behavior to eliminate sharp resonances.The uniform cardioid polar pattern focuses the source while minimizing room and bleed, making placement fast and predictable in multi-micsessions or less than ideal spaces, and smooth proximity effect gives more creative control. An included shock mount and pop filter isolatesthe microphone from rumbles and vibrations and blocks out plosives. Also includes hard mount, premium case and threaded adapter. Ideal forcapturing rich nuances in vocals and instruments including upright bass, guitar amps and kick drum.

Features:

• 1" Capsule Delivers Natural, Detailed Audio with Rich Low-End: Precision engineered 1" capsule delivers smooth, high frequency detail that sits beautifully in a mix without brightness or harshness. A proprietary backplate design controls diaphragm behaviour to eliminate sharp resonances.
• Uniform Cardioid Polar Pattern for Predictable Placement: Focsues on the source while minimizing room and bleed, making placement fast and predictable in multi-mic sessions or less than ideal spaces. The smooth proximity effect gives more creative control: move closer for a larger-than-life sound or pull back for a more neutral tone.
• Extremely Low Self-Noise: Supports building of clean tracks with more headroom. Capture quiet passages, add gain and compression when needed without hiss building up.
• Sleek, Modern Design with Premium Materials: Lightweight, aluminum construction adds durability while keepin the mic intentionally lighter for easier placement on boom stands. Precision-machined steel grille showcases the mic's gold-layered capsule.
• Shock Mount + Pop Filter & Accessory Suite: The included shock mount and detachable pop filter dampen undesired noises including rumbles, vibrations and plosive "pop" sounds. Premium carrying case tailored to store the mic in its schok mount. Threaded adapter and additional set of 8 shock mount bands also included.
