Experienced recording engineers know that the mixing process actually starts with the selection of microphones for tracking and overdubs. Tracks captured with the right mic tend to sit perfectly in the mix without needing extensive processing, making for fewer headaches at mixdown. But these days, you don’t need expensive, exotic mics to reap these benefits. Enter the Shure KSM32C, a state-of-the-art cardioid large-diaphragm FET condenser mic with a precision-engineered 1-inch capsule that renders any source in crisp, nuanced, high fidelity. The KSM32C exhibits a robust low end and a sweet, detailed high end that’s not overly bright, even on shrill sources, thanks to a proprietary back-plate design that controls diaphragm behavior to eliminate harsh resonances. Like all great LDCs, the Shure KSM32C excels on vocals and acoustic instruments, and thanks to its selectable -15dB pre-attenuation pad, you can deploy it on a kick drum and guitar amps with stellar results.

<h3>Versatile, predictable cardioid polar pattern</h3>
Think about it: If you had to choose one polar pattern for all the mics in your studio, cardioid would be the one. Although we certainly recommend having omnidirectional and figure-8 microphones on hand for tricky recording setups and advanced stereo miking techniques, your cardioid mics will be your go-to mics for the vast majority of monaural applications, as well as for Spaced Pair (A/B), XY, and ORTF stereo capture. A well-designed cardioid polar pattern focuses the source while minimizing ambience and bleed from adjacent sources, making placement easy and predictable for multi-mic recording sessions or tight stage setups. A great-sounding cardioid condenser mic, like the Shure KSM32C, will enjoy constant use in your studio. It’s a sound investment.
<h3>Shure: an industry standard for performance and reliability</h3>
Shure’s legacy of MIL-Spec build quality goes back to World War II, when the company emerged as a prime government contractor supplying critical communications equipment components to the US military. Today, Shure products are omnipresent on premier stages and in recording studios, corporate conference halls, houses of worship, and educational facilities worldwide.
