OPERATION Position the microphone so that the side marked “Shure”—the side opposite the switches—faces the sound source. Power The KSM32 requires phantom power. Optimal performance will be achieved when using a 48 Vdc supply (IEC-268-15/DIN 45 596). The microphone oper- ates with supplies as low as 11 Vdc. Mounting The ShureLock swivel mount and elastic shock mount provide a secure means of fastening the microphone to a floor or boom stand. When using the swivel mount, the internal shock mount p

Setting Attenuation The attenuation switch on the back of the KSM32 reduces the signal level from the cartridge by 15 dB without altering the frequency response. This can prevent extremely high SPL from overloading the microphone. To activate atte- nuation, move the switch to the “–15 dB” position. In situations where the high output capability of the KSM32 might overload the microphone preamplifier of a console or mixer, use an attenuation switch (pad) in the mixer or an external inline attenua
