Shure KSM32/CG Cardioid Condenser Microphone

The Classic Choice for Transparent Sound Reproduction When pro engineers need transparent sound reproduction, the Shure KSM32 is one of the first mics they reach for. This super-clean large-diaphragm microphone boasts a gold-layered, low-mass Mylar diaphragm for superior transient response, along with a transformerless preamplifier for crystal-clear sound.

What’s more, its embossed, high-compliance diaphragm exhibits extended low-frequency response and consistent off-axis rejection. The KSM32’s cardioid polar pattern rejects unwanted sounds, while an internal shockmount minimizes handling and stand noise. You also get an integrated 3-stage protection grille to reduce plosives. A -15dB pad and variable highpass filter round out the KSM32’s impressive feature set.

The KSM32 has been a studio workhorse for decades — it’s a must-have for every microphone locker.
