Description

The SM137 is a cardioid condenser microphone built for instrument pickup. It uses an ultra-thin diaphragm, which gives a smooth top end together with a tight, controlled low end. The response is flat, so the sound it captures stays close to the source.

A 15 dB pad lets the microphone keep a consistent performance across a wider range of high-SPL sources, such as loud amplifiers or drums, as well as quieter acoustic instruments. The preamplifier circuit is transformerless and has low self-noise.

The microphone ships with a swivel adapter and a zippered pouch. Optional accessories listed for it include the A27M stereo microphone adapter, A3WS windscreen, A25D microphone clip, and the A55M and A53M shock mount clips.
