Shure

Description

With an incredible maximum SPL (sound pressure level) rating of 152dB, a very low noise floor (9.5dB), and pristine 20–20,000Hz response, the Shure SM27 cardioid condenser mic is the "desert island" mic which is equally at home in a high-end recording facility or a personal project studio.

Superior transient response is provided by an ultra-thin, 2.5 μm, 1", 24 karat, gold-layered diaphragm. Add a Class A discrete preamp combined with premium electronic components, and the SM27 offers a pristine sound one would expect from a mic costing much more. The Shure SM27 includes a professional, rubber suspension shockmount and a velveteen soft storage pouch.

    I've had this product for over 6 years now, and I have loved this mic. I even use it for my acoustic guitar and get great full sounds out of it, and it records great from a foot away. I highly recommend this mic.

    I bought the microphone with the X2u bundle and its helped me alot with my vocals. Being able to listen to myself directly. The condenser is amazing for voice clarity and recording acoustic. I would recommend it to any new musician or anyone wanting to improve their vocals

    Most of the comments seem to be related to recording studio work, etc. We are a working band, playing indoors and outdoors in all kinds of conditions. We play Bluegrass music so it is acoustic instruments through separate mics or DI with multiple band members clustering around a mic and singing together on the chorus, etc. Does anyone have experience with the Shure SM27 for that kind of situation? Any input that you can provide will really be appreciated. Thanks.
