Professional recording demands nothing less than perfection, and the KSM44A stands as the pinnacle of large-diaphragm condenser microphone engineering. This premium side-address microphone offers versatile polar pattern selection including cardioid, omnidirectional, and bidirectional configurations, making it an essential tool for discerning audio professionals.
The sophisticated construction centres around externally biased dual 1-inch diaphragms, complemented by comprehensive internal pop filtering systems. This refined design approach ensures exceptional audio capture across all recording applications, from intimate vocal sessions to complex instrumental arrangements.
At the heart of this microphone lies Prethos® Advanced Preamplifier Technology, representing a significant milestone in sound reinforcement innovation. The transparent internal circuitry architecture achieves an industry-leading threshold minimum for self-noise, whilst maintaining unprecedented audio quality and performance standards that make the KSM44A the premier choice for top-tier professional studio and stage applications.
- Prethos® Advanced Preamplifier Technology: Class A, discrete, transformerless preamplifier provides transparency, extremely fast transient response and no crossover distortion. Minimises harmonic and intermodulation distortions
- Groundbreaking specifications: 4dB of self-noise and max SPL of 131 dB for a total dynamic range of 127 dB – an increase of 7 dB that defines the new standard for cleanly nuanced audio capture
- Multiple polar patterns–cardioid, omnidirectional and bidirectional–for maximum flexibility in a wide variety of recording applications
- Dual 1 inch, externally biased, ultra-thin, 2.5 µm, 24 Karat gold-layered, low mass diaphragms provide superior frequency response
- Premium electronic components and gold-plated internal and external connectors
- Subsonic filter eliminates rumble from mechanical vibration below 17 Hz
- Switchable 15 dB pad for handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPLs)
- 3-position switchable low-frequency filter helps reduce unwanted stand vibration noise or counteract proximity effect
- Integrated three-stage “pop” protection grille reduces plosives and other breath noise
