PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
• Extended frequency response
• Low self-noise
• Can withstand high sound pressure levels (SPLs)
• High output level
• No crossover distortion
• Uniform polar response
• Superior common mode rejection and suppression of RFI (radio frequency
interference)
APPLICATIONS
The KSM109 will produce superior results in any application requiring a high
quality microphone. Typical applications include:
• Close miking of acoustic instruments such as piano, guitar, violins, drums, and
percussion
• Overhead miking of drums and percussion instruments
• Electric guitar amplifiers
• Brass and woodwind instruments
• Orchestras, choirs, and wind ensembles
Note: Sound quality is strongly affected by microphone location and room acoustics.
To achieve the best overall sound for a particular application, it may be necessary to
experiment with microphone placement and room treatments.
