Shure KSM8 Overview

The nickel KSM8/N Dualdyne Dynamic Handheld Vocal Microphone from Shure is a dual-diaphragm dynamic microphone crafted for vocal reproduction and sound-reinforcement in live performances and top-tier professional venues.

Featuring one of the most innovative cardioid polar pattern microphones that Shure has developed to date, the Dualdyne cartridge of the KSM8 virtually eliminates proximity effect and masters off-axis rejection while providing the signal clarity typical of condenser microphones without processing. This also provides reliability of a dynamic microphone feedback control.

Patented cartridge design featuring two ultra-thin diaphragms (one active and one passive) and groundbreaking inverted airflow systemExceptional control of proximity effect vastly increases working distance without on-axis colorationAccurate frequency response due to controlled proximity effect which allows for neutral mid-and-high frequency reproductionOff-axis attenuation is flat and broad resulting in superior quality of rejection of unwanted sound sources for increased vocal clarityShock Mount design for exceptional rejection of handling noise without any loss of low frequency responseDent-resistant, hardened carbon-steel grille design lined with hydrophobic woven fabric provides exceptional plosive and wind protection, while offering virtually waterproof protection.
