About Shure KSM32C/HM

Featuring a precision engineered 3/4" capsule with embossed Mylar diaphragm, the KSM32C delivers a smooth, balanced response and exceptional low-frequency performance typically found in1" capsules. The exceptional off-axis rejection ensures surrounding instruments and room reflections stay out of the mix. Combined with ultra-low self-noise, the result is cleaner, more isolated recordings that preserve the detail of the source.

Precision Engineered 3/4" Capsule
Shure designed and manufactured 3/4" capsule features an embossed Mylar diaphragm, delivering a smooth response and exceptional low-frequency performance typically found in 1" capsules.

Exceptional Off-Axis Rejection
The KSM32's precisely-tuned cardioid pattern delivers exceptional off-axis rejection (up to 37db down at 180 degrees) ensuring that surrounding instruments and room reflections stay out of your mix. Combined with ultra-low self-noise, the result is cleaner, more isolated recordings that preserve the detail of your source. Ideal for capturing upright bass, drum overheads, and ensemble sessions where clarity is key.

Flattest Voicing in the KSM Line
A remarkably even, response that delivers clarity without hype. The KSM32's neutral sound lets you shape tones intentionally without fighting against exaggerated peaks and surprises in the top end. The KSM32 reveals the source without imposing its own character.

Exceptional Flexibility for Vocal and Instrument Recording
Ideal for vocals, acoustic and electric instruments, drum overheads, and piano. Transparent sound with fast transient response can be shaped with EQ and compression to achieve almost any desired recording.

Premium Materials, Compact Design
Compact all-metal design will fit where other large diaphragm condensers won't while ensuring long-term durability for stage use. Lightweight, aluminum construction adds durability while keeping the mic intentionally lighter for easier placement on boom stands. Precision-machined steel grille showcases the mic's gold-layered capsule.
