Shure

Microphones trusted by musicians and creators everywhere.

About Shure

Shure has been building microphones in Chicago since 1925. They're the standard in live sound, broadcast, and studio recording because their gear works and keeps working. The SM57 and SM58 are industry benchmarks, you'll find them on stages, in studios, and in broadcast booths around the world. Shure's approach is straightforward: build tools that sound good, handle abuse, and don't need babysitting. Their wireless systems set the bar for reliability in professional touring, and their headphone and in-ear monitor lines bring the same no-nonsense engineering to personal monitoring.

Shure - Microphone Technology and Innovation

Dynamic Microphones

Shure's dynamic mics are workhorses. The SM57 handles snare drums, guitar cabs, and brass without breaking a sweat. The SM58 is the vocal mic every sound engineer knows how to dial in. These mics don't need phantom power, they reject feedback, and they survive drops, sweat, and years of road use. The Beta series adds more output and a tighter pickup pattern for louder stages. If you need a mic that works every time, this is the line.

Condenser Microphones

Shure's condenser mics bring studio detail to live and recording environments. The KSM series captures vocals and acoustic instruments with clarity and low self-noise. The KSM32 is a go-to for overhead drum mics and acoustic guitar. The KSM44A offers multiple polar patterns for flexible studio work. These mics are built like dynamics but deliver the sensitivity and frequency response you need for detailed source material.

Wireless Systems

Shure wireless is trusted on major tours because it doesn't drop out. The ULX-D and QLX-D systems offer digital transmission with rock-solid RF performance and rechargeable battery options. The Axient Digital line is the top tier for large-scale productions that need interference-free operation across dozens of channels. Bodypack transmitters, handheld mics, and instrument systems all share the same reliable platform. You set your frequencies, do a quick scan, and the system handles the rest.

Headphones and In-Ear Monitors

Shure's headphone and IEM lineup is built for monitoring, not casual listening. The SRH series delivers accurate frequency response for mixing and tracking. The SE series in-ear monitors isolate sound and provide clear detail for live performers and studio engineers. The SE846 uses quad drivers for extended low end and precise imaging. These are tools for hearing what's actually there, not what sounds flattering.
