Description

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.Superior build quality ensures top-shelf sound Over 90 years of mic-building experience went into the KSM32’s design, and it shows.

Class A, transformerless preamplifier circuitry eliminates crossover distortion for improved linearity across the entire frequency range. On top of that, the KSM32’s rock-solid build construction can easily withstand daily use onstage and in the studio. A time-tested studio workhorse with pro-level features The Shure KSM32 is jam-packed with the pro-level features you’d expect from a microphone of this caliber. An internal shockmount minimizes handling and stand noise, while an integrated 3-stage protection grille reduces plosives and other breath noises. A -15dB pad tackles high-SPL sources like a champ, while a variable highpass filter counteracts proximity effect and mechanical rumble. At Sweetwater, we’ve found the KSM32 to be a top performer in critical applications. It captures a variety of sources — vocals and instruments alike — with the utmost in transparency, and can handle loud sources like drums, percussion, and guitar amplifiers. If you want crystal-clear recordings, use what pros have used for decades — the Shure KSM32.
