Shure to Preview SM86 Wireless at Winter NAMM

Cardioid condenser mic capsule to be available with SLXTM, ULX, UHF systems

 

Introduced in the fall of 2002, the SM86 combines the ruggedness of Shure's live performance microphones with the studio quality sound of a Shure condenser. Representing the first new model added to the legendary SM family in over a decade, the hardwired vocal mic will soon be made available as a wireless capsule in Shure's SLX, ULX, and UHF systems in March of 2004.

 

Like the hardwired SM86, wireless SM86 capsules will have a cardioid pattern and frequency response of 50 Hz to 18 kHz. Delivering high gain-before-feedback and a tailored response for the clear reproduction of vocals, the wireless models will be an excellent selection for use with traditional stage monitors, as well as personal monitors. In addition, all wireless handheld SM86 transmitters will be equipped with an integral two-stage windscreen and pop filter, as well as a built-in, three-point shock mount which virtually eliminates stand and handling noise.
