Shure KSM353/ED Bi-Directional Ribbon Microphone

The Shure KSM353/ED, a premium bi-directional ribbon microphone crafted for pristine audio in studio and concert hall applications, now comes with the A300SM ShureLock Wire Rope Shock Mount. Proprietary Roswellite technology provides revolutionary ribbon resilience and durability under extreme conditions. Hand assembled in the USA from state-of-the art transducers, transformers and metals as the pinnacle of Shure quality for prestigious vocal and acoustic performances.

The high-tensile strength, toughness and shape memory of Roswellite ribbon material replaces traditional foil ribbons for superior resilience at extreme SPLs.

With unique technology and application features, alongside superior materials and construction, Shure KSM Ribbon Microphones are the necessary choice for the world’s most accomplished studio and live performances.

FEATURES:
  • Bi-directional polar pattern delivers premier, completely symmetrical audio with superior off-axis rejection
  • Revolutionary Roswellite proprietary ribbon material replaces traditional foil ribbons with high tensile strength, toughness and shape memory that provides superior resilience at extreme SPLs
  • Custom ribbon motor assembly tailors bass response without attenuating the overall output for full low and mid ranges, and superior upper range presence from a rising frequency response
  • Double-shielded matched full-sized transformer minimizes signal loss and maximizes output while reducing magnetic and RF interference from 90 degree placement, offset relative to the ribbon
  • 146 dB SPL across 30 – 15,000 Hz frequency response ideal for capturing fast transients in vocals, acoustic instruments and concert halls
  • Legendary Shure quality and superior construction from hand-assembly of machined steel, silver, gold and aluminum materials, and housed in a pure stainless steel casing
  • Upright protective wood case included for storage when not in use

Product Overview
Shure purchased the patent for the "Roswellite" ribbon technology in 2009 from Crowley & Tripp, a small-quantity microphone manufacturer which operated out of Ashland, MA. This patented material is based on nano-scale shape memory material which can take extreme amounts of SPL and return to its original shape.

The Shure KSM353 is part of the line of "Roswellite" ribbon microphones. The KSM353 is a true bi-directional microphone with even response from front to back, and deep nulls on the sides for rejection of bleed from other instruments or sound sources. With a very deep low-end response and an emphasis around 100Hz, the original Crowley & Tripp model ("El Diablo") was actually designed as the "perfect" kick drum mic in collaboration with the staff of Mercenary Audio.
