The Shure KSM141/SL Microphones are a factory matched pair of dual pattern instrument microphone that deliver premium stereo recording performance with the flexibility professional engineers demand.
The Shure KSM141/SL Small Diaphragm Microphones are a stereo pair of dual-pattern end-addressed condenser microphones with a rotating collar, allowing easy switching between a consistent cardioid or true omnidirectional polar pattern for smooth and extremely focused sound reproduction. Designed for studio use, yet rugged enough for live applications, the Shure KSM141 can withstand extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL). Its low self-noise and extended frequency response make it ideal for recording musical instruments.
Shure KSM141/SL Microphone Applications
- Acoustic instruments -- such as piano, guitar, drums, percussion, strings
- Wind instruments -- brass and woodwind
- Low frequency instruments -- such as double bass, electric bass, kick drum
- Overhead miking -- drums or percussion
- Ensembles -- choral or orchestral
- Room ambiance pick-up -- guitar amplifier or drums
