Description
The Shure SM86 is a unidirectional (cardioid) condenser vocal microphone for professional use in live performance. An extremely rugged microphone, the SM86 withstands the rigours of touring while delivering a clear, studio-quality sound.
A cardioid pickup pattern isolates the main sound source while minimising unwanted background noise. The built-in three-point shock mount minimise handling noise, and a two-stage pop filter reduces wind and breath “pop” noise. Unidirectional (cardioid) microphones progressively boost bass frequencies by 6 to 10 dB below 100 Hz when the microphone is at a distance of about 6 mm (1/4 in.) from the sound source.
