Shure SM86
Cardioid Condenser Microphone
The Shure SM86 is a unidirectional (cardioid) condenser vocal microphone designed to withstand the wear of stage use.
The frequency response is tailored for vocals. A built-in three-point shockmount minimizes handling noise, and a two-stage pop filter reduces wind and breath noises.
