Description

The KSM32C/HM is a cardioid condenser microphone crafted for natural, detailed sound capture in live performance settings. It features a precision-engineered 1-inch capsule that delivers rich low-end and smooth high-frequency response, allowing audio to sit comfortably in a mix without harshness. Its proprietary backplate design helps manage diaphragm behavior, reducing resonances and maintaining clarity across a wide frequency range.

This version of the KSM32C includes a hard mount, foam windscreen, premium carrying case, and a threaded adapter, offering a complete setup for stage applications. The microphone's uniform cardioid pattern focuses tightly on the intended source while limiting ambient noise and bleed. Its low self-noise and ability to handle high sound pressure levels make it suitable for capturing both subtle acoustic details and powerful instrument output. The lightweight aluminum housing and refined construction support consistent performance in a variety of live audio environments.
