Ribbon microphones are known for being extremely delicate. Two aspects make the KSM313 different:
- The high strength, tensile strength, and shape memory of the KSM313/NE's Roswellite™ ribbon material replaces traditional aluminum foil ribbons, resulting in increased robustness at extreme sound pressure levels and longer microphone life.
- Bi-directionality means that one side of the KSM313/NE offers a brighter character, making vocals stand out from the crowd, while the other side of the microphone delivers a rich, full sound, ideal for amplified instruments.
