The 1” brass dual-diaphragm capsule is engineered to consistently reproduce every element of your performance with remarkable accuracy and exceptional low-frequency control. Patent-Pending Interference Shielding Technology blocks unwanted RF noises from wireless devices, and the low-profile design with all-metal construction delivers the perfect upgrade for your home studio.
Smooth and Natural Audio Reproduction:
Equipped with a brass 1-inch dual-diaphragm capsule, the SM4 captures clean, controlled low-end and smooth, detailed highs. The uniform cardioid polar pattern provides superior off-axis rejection of unwanted noise, and the large “sweet spot” reduces proximity effect.
Patent-Pending Interference Shielding Technology:
Block unwanted RF noise from common wireless devices including cell phones, laptops, and wi-fi routers. The proprietary system features an integrated pop-filter and woven mesh faraday cage that shields the microphone capsule for clean audio capture.
Mix-Ready Sound, Effortlessly:
Internal pop filter enables clean, plosive and rumble-free recordings for easier post-production work. Compress or EQ to taste without bringing forward unwanted elements that can plague recordings and mixes. Additionally, the SM4 works with any interface to achieve professional-quality recordings, no matter the environment.
