About Shure SM27-SC

With the Shure SM27-SC Cardioid Side-Address Condenser Microphone, you can achieve professional, high-quality audio recording in both stage and studio settings. This versatile and reliable microphone is a superior solution for capturing crystal-clear vocals and instruments, making it an ideal choice for project studio recording applications.

One of the standout features of the SM27-SC is its cardioid polar pattern. This design is renowned for its ability to isolate the sound source and significantly reduce background noise, ensuring that your recordings are always clear and free from unwanted interference. This feature also helps in reducing feedback, making the SM27-SC a durable and reliable choice for live performances.

The side-address design of the SM27-SC sets it apart from other microphones. With the diaphragm positioned at a 90-degree angle to the sound source, this microphone offers more natural and accurate sound reproduction. It's less likely to pick up sound reflections from other surfaces in the room, and the design makes it easier to position the microphone correctly for optimal sound capture.

The SM27-SC also comes equipped with a -15 dB pad switch and a 3-position low-cut filter switch. The -15 dB pad maximizes headroom, effectively reducing peak noise and distortion caused by transient (peaking) audio signals. Meanwhile, the 3-position low-cut filter switch minimizes low-frequency noise and proximity effect, further enhancing the overall sound quality of your recordings.

In summary, the Shure SM27-SC Cardioid Side-Address Condenser Microphone is a high-quality, professional, and versatile audio recording tool that delivers reliable performance in a variety of settings.

Shure SM27-SC Features

  • Uniform cardioid pattern for superior off axis rejection
  • Superior transient response from a low-mass large Mylar diaphragm
  • Flat, neutral frequency response for natural reproduction on stage or in the studio
  • 3-position switchable low-frequency filter helps reduce unwanted background noise or counteract proximity effect for consistent, extended low-end
  • Durable metal construction
  • Three separate mesh layers reduces wind and breath noise
  • 15 dB pad for performance consistency across a wider range of high SPL sources
