Dualdyne cartridge kills proximity effect and smooths highs
Thanks to its unique Dualdyne 2-diaphragm dynamic cartridge and reverse airflow design, the Shure KSM8 exhibits the lowest proximity effect of any standard-size handheld microphone engineers have gotten their hands on. As a result, you’ll find this microphone ideal for vocalists who like to choke up on the mic. While it handles deep, booming voices beautifully, you’ll be equally impressed by the way the KSM8 evens out upper mids, providing you with polished results, right at the mic.
Massive sweet spot accommodates highly active performers
If there’s one word that best describes the Shure KSM8 Vocal Microphone , it’s “consistent.” Whether you’re right up on the grille or considerably backed off, the sound is remarkably similar. This has two immediate benefits. First, if you’re working with an active vocalist whose performance style brings them closer and farther away from the microphone, they can always be in the sweet spot, never sounding too thin or too boomy. Second, if you’re recording overdubs in the studio, the KSM8 is a lot more forgiving than most microphones, so you don’t have to worry as much about mic positioning if you’re coming back to a session. And, as an added benefit of its breakthrough dual-diaphragm arrangement, the KSM8 also minimizes plosive pops, adding further consistency to your sound.
