The Shure
KSM27 is a side-address condenser microphone with a cardioid polar
pattern. Designed for studio use but rugged enough for live applications, the KSM27
has an externally biased 1-inch diaphragm, extremely low self-noise, and an
extended frequency response specially tailored for vocal tracking and instrument
recording.
