Looking to faithfully capture the natural sound of your source? The Shure SM137 is perfect for a huge range of applications. With its ultra-thin diaphragm, the SM137 boasts a rapid response that enables it to capture every detail with outstanding accuracy. This diaphragm design also provides a smooth high-end and a tight, controlled low-end, giving you a natural sound without over-hyped frequencies.
With an extended frequency response, the SM137 is ideal for almost any sound source - brass, woodwind, strings, drums and percussion, guitars and cabinets, vocals, and more. The uniform cardioid polar pattern gives you excellent isolation whilst preventing the pickup of unwanted off-axis sounds.
And if you happen to be in a room with beautiful acoustics, the SM137 is an ideal choice for a room mic, letting you capture the ambience and unique sonic signature of your space. This is perfect when using two SM137s simultaneously, particularly for drum overheads. Their crisp, natural sound brings out the shimmer of cymbals and the crack of snares. Whether you're on stage or in the studio, the Shure SM137 lets you record with confidence.
