Capture every nuance and detail of your vocals with Shure’s KSM9 Condenser Vocal Microphone. This handheld mic features a dual diaphragm design and can go between cardioid and supercardioid polar patterns with the flip of a switch, equipping it for stellar performances in live environments and recording studios alike. The KSM9 is a premium vocal mic that offers natural warmth and vocal subtlety, pristine articulation, functional flexibility, and more.

The KSM9 is the ideal vocal microphone for:

  • Lead and backup singers
  • Studio Recording
  • Live Sound Reinforcement

The KSM9 offers exceptional consistency across all frequencies, delivering more gain before feedback while simultaneously decreasing the proximity effect. Choose its cardioid polar pattern for live music where performers are using in-ear monitors to get a warm, full sound and to enjoy excellent gain-before-feedback with minimal off-axis coloration. Change to the supercardioid pattern for even better isolation from other audio sources—great for noisy live environments or where multiple artists are performing in close quarters.
