Shure SM27 Large Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone
The Shure SM27 Cardioid Condenser Microphone is a cost-effective large diaphragm solution for capturing vocals and instruments in project studio recording applications. Among the SM27's features is a cardioid polar pattern, -15dB pad switch and 3-position low-cut filter switch.
The cardioid capsule effectively minimizes off-axis noise while reducing feedback and a -15dB pad maximizes headroom, reducing peak noise and distortion caused by transient (peaking) audio signals. The SM27's 3-position low-cut filter switch minimizes low-frequency noise and proximity effect. Overall the SM27 is a modestly priced microphone that is sure to please musicians, vocalists, and experienced audio engineers alike.
