Shure KSM42/SG Condenser Vocal Mirophone

Stormembrans med dubbla membran ger en exceptionellt mjuk närhetskontroll och ultrabrett dynamiskt omfång. Den har ett naturligt off-axis svar, ett dubbelt Mylar-membran i guld, 3-stegsgaller och intern stötdämpning.

Målet med KSM42 var att skapa en stormembransmikrofon där upptagning av mänsklig röst i kontrollerad miljö var den primära funktionen. Mycket eftertanke gick till att skapa en kapsel med  dubbla membran för att garantera överlägsen närhetskontroll och en generös och bred "sweet spot". med extremt jämn upptagning under 1000Hz och en max SPL på 139 dB och en gradvis inbyggd frekvensavrullning blir pad och filter-inställningar överflödiga.

Why are there no switchable settings (pad, low-cut filter) on the KSM42?
The design intent of the KSM42 was to craft a large-diaphragm side-address microphone for the primary application of human voice in controlled environments. Much forethought went into crafting the dual-diaphragm capsule to guarantee superior proximity control and a generous and broad “sweet spot”, with extremely consistent sound quality below 1000Hz. With a max SPL of 139 dB and a gradual low-end frequency roll-off built in, pad and filter settings become redundant.

What is Prethos™ Advanced Preamplifier Technology?
Prethos™ Advanced Preamplifier Technology consists of highly sophisticated, extremely transparent internal circuitry architectures that enable unprecedented seamless audio, maximizing audio quality for premium microphone performance.

Suspenstion Shock Mound with magnetic Pop Filter
The KSM42 ships with an open cage ShureLock® rubber suspension shock mount and a low-profile Popper Stopper™ magnetic pop filter. This allows to setup the microphone and shock mount always with the same distance.

Premium components
The KSM42 features a dual-diaphragm design with an active front, ultra thin (2.5 micron) 24-karat gold, low mass, 1-inch Mylar® diaphragm, premium electronic components and gold-plated internal and external connectors.
