SHURE / KSM44MP-J

Released August 2026. KSM44MP has a 1-inch dual-diaphragm capsule with three patterns, offering natural clarity and smooth highs for vocals and delicate instruments. Off-axis control supports multimiked sessions. Includes shock mount, pop filter, case, hard mount and thread adapter.

＜ features ＞
■ Selectable cardioid, omnidirectional and figure-8 patterns
Versatile applications include vocals, voice-over, instruments, stereo techniques and ensembles, retaining a refined, pure tone across all pickup patterns.

■ flat response with subtle high-frequency emphasis
Shure's 1-inch capsule subtly emphasizes highs while retaining smoothness and detail, capturing vocal air, faint harmonics and delicate instruments for modern production.

■ consistent polar pattern optimized across a wide frequency range
The dual-diaphragm design provides consistent sensitivity and directivity, improving low-frequency off-axis control for cleaner multimiked recordings.

■ very low self-noise
Provides headroom for clean tracks, capturing quiet melodies while allowing gain and compression with minimal hiss.

■ refined contemporary design
Discreet, lightweight all-metal construction with a steel grille simplifies boom placement. Precision machining highlights the gold-colored capsule and supports long-term studio reliability.

■ Shock mount, removable magnetic pop filter and premium accessories
Silicone suspension bands resist sagging and wear while isolating low-frequency vibration. A removable magnetic pop filter reduces plosives. Includes premium case accommodating the mounted microphone, hard mount, thread adapter and eight spare bands.
