Natural audio reproduction
Thanks to the 1-inch brass dual-diaphragm, the SM4 delivers clear, precise lows and smooth, detailed highs. The uniform cardioid polar pattern provides excellent off-axis rejection, and the large "Sweet Spot" reduces proximity effect.
Patent-pending Interference Shielding Technology
Shields disruptive RF interference from wireless devices such as smartphones, laptops and Wi-Fi routers. This exclusive system features a built-in pop filter and a woven Faraday cage that protects the microphone capsule and enables a clear sound capture.
Effortlessly to mix-ready audio
The integrated pop filter ensures clear, plosive-free recordings without low-frequency rumble, making post-production easier. Compression or EQ can be adjusted to taste without emphasising low-frequency artefacts that can affect recordings and mixes. Furthermore, the SM4 can be connected to any interface and guarantees professional recordings regardless of the environment.
Exceptional flexibility for vocal and instrument recordings
Designed to capture a wide range of sound sources, from gentle vocals to loud instruments such as drums, guitar amplifiers and brass, thanks to exceptional SPL handling (max. SPL of 140 dB).
Legendary reliability and camera-friendly design
Robust metal construction and an exceptionally high sound-pressure tolerance from a brand with decades of experience producing reliable gear for stage and studio. The sleek, unobtrusive design does not obscure the performer or the surroundings.
