General Description

This premium side-address, cardioid condenser microphone features a large

dual-diaphragm optimized for world-class vocal recording and performance

applications. With a tailored frequency response and extensive internal and

external pop filtering, the single-pattern, dual-diaphragm design of the KSM42

exhibits an exceptionally smooth frequency response and ultra-wide dynamic

range. The KSM42 is the premier choice for capturing sophisticated and inti-

mate vocal performances.

Features

• Highly consistent cardioid polar pattern creates a broad "sweet spot" and

natural off-axis response

• Dual-diaphragm design with an active front, ultra thin (2.5 micron) 24-

karat gold, low mass, 1-inch Mylar

®diaphragm

• Passive back diaphragm delivers exceptional control of low frequency

proximity effect

• Tailored low-frequency roll-off minimizes low frequency room noise

• Integrated three-stage mesh grille guards against wind and breath

noise—magnetic pop filter attachment for additional pop protection

•Open cage ShureLock®rubber suspension shock mount with low-profile

magnetic pop filter produces a natural space between performer and

microphone

• Extremely low self noise for critical studio vocal recording

• Advanced preamplifier technology exhibits extremely low self-noise with

superior dynamic range, transient response and ultra-low distortion for

transparent recording

• Premium electronic components and gold-plated internal and external

connectors

• Durable zince die-cast housing and hardened low carbon steel grille

• Internal shock mount to reduce unwanted handling and stand noise

Performance Characteristics

• Consistent frequency response, irrespective of distance

• High output level

• Extensive pop filtering protection system (internal and external)

• High input SPL capability

• Ultra-low distortion

• Uniform polar response

• Superior common mode rejection and suppression of radio frequency

interference.

Applications

The KSM42 is designed primarily for:

• Solo and backing vocals

• Voice-overs

• Speech

Secondary uses might include:

• Ensembles—choral or orchestral room ambiance pick-up

• Acoustic instruments—piano, guitar, and stringed instruments

• Wind instruments—brass and woodwinds

Operation

Power Requirements

This microphone requires phantom power and performs best with a 48 Vdc supply (IEC-61938). However, it will operate with slightly decreased headroom and

sensitivity with supplies as low as 11 Vdc.

Most modern mixers provide phantom power. You must use a microphone cable: XLR-to-XLR or XLR-to-TRS.balanced

Suspension Mount

Use the supplied ShureLock rubber suspension mount to secure the microphone to a floor or boom stand.®

Important: Thread the knurled locking ring securely to the base of the microphone. Do not overtighten.

Positioning the Microphone

The front of the microphone is marked by the Shure logo. Position this side toward the sound source.

Pop Filter

An integrated three-stage mesh grille guards against wind and breath noise. Use the included pop filter accessory for additional protection against breath and

"plosive" noises. The pop filter magnetically attaches to the front of the shockmount ring.

Reduction of Proximity Effect

To counter proximity effect, the KSM42 uses two diaphragms, one active and one passive, to create an acoustic phase shift at the rear of the microphone. This

produces a broad "sweet spot" of uniform low-frequency response, allowing the performer to move closer or further from the microphone with minimal changes

in sound quality.
