The SM93 is an economical omnidirectional subminiature
lavalier condenser microphone designed for use in speech applications.
Despite its small size, the 93 microphone element provides full, clear
sound comparable to that of much larger microphones. Its frequency
response is tailored to body-worn applications, with low-end rolloff
and presence rise.
The SM93 is supplied with a sew-on mounting bracket, a
mounting block with attached tie bar, and an acoustic windscreen to
minimize wind noise in outdoor applications. The SM93 is also supplied
with a dual mounting block with attached tie bar.
The SM93 is powered by phantom power supplied by broadcast,
sound reinforcement or recording equipment, or an external phantom
supply. The SM93 operates over an extremely wide voltage range of 11 to
52 Vdc, covering both DIN and IEC phantom power standards. A
dual-channel power supply (Shure Model PS1A) is available for providing
phantom power to the SM93.
