Shure KSM44ASL

The Shure 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 Advanced Preamplifier Technology for a groundbreaking threshold minimum of self-noise.

State-of-the-art Prethos Advanced Preamplifier Technology employs transparent internal circuitry architectures that enable unprecedented audio quality and performance.

The Shure KSM44A comes with a ShureLock suspension shock mount, ShureLock stand mount, carrying case and velveteen pouch.

Shure KSM44A Features:
• Prethos Advanced Preamplifier Technology: Class A, discrete, transformerless preamplifier provides transparency, extremely fast transient response and no crossover distortion; minimizes harmonic and intermodulation distortions
• 4dB of self-noise and max SPL of 131 dB for a total dynamic range of 127 dB, an increase of 7 dB that defines the new standard for cleanly nuanced audio capture
• Multiple polar patterns: cardioid, omnidirectional and bidirectional for maximum flexibility in a wide variety of recording applications
• Dual 1 inch, externally biased, ultra-thin, 2.5 _m, 24 Karat gold-layered, low mass diaphragms provide superior frequency response
• 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
• 3-position switchable low-frequency filter helps reduce unwanted stand vibration noise or counteract proximity effect
• Integrated three-stage “pop” protection grille reduces plosives and other breath noise
