The deliberately neutral instrument mic
The Shure SM137 is a fixed‑cardioid electret condenser microphone that brings Shure's instrument condenser philosophy to a more accessible price point – neutral, detailed, and built for a wide range of studio and live applications. Part of Shure's long‑established SM microphone family, it applies the same purpose‑built approach to instrument capture as the KSM series, while offering one of the broadest application ranges in the SM instrument lineup. The ultra‑thin diaphragm delivers a neutral, balanced frequency response from 20Hz to 20kHz, with articulate high‑end reproduction and a controlled low‑end roll‑off. A ‑15dB pad raises the maximum SPL from 144dB to 159dB for close placement on loud sources. A swivel adapter, zippered pouch and foam windscreen are included as standard; 48V phantom power is required.
Capsule and circuitry
The Shure SM137's electret condenser capsule covers 20Hz–20kHz with a response that remains largely flat through the midrange, complemented by a gentle low‑frequency roll‑off from around 300Hz and two broad presence lifts across 3–6kHz and 6–12kHz. Self‑noise is rated at 19dB SPL‑A, with a 75dB signal‑to‑noise ratio – figures entirely in keeping with a professional instrument condenser. These are low enough for the quietest acoustic sources the SM137 is likely to encounter. Its transformerless Class A preamplifier minimises distortion and preserves fast transients, while the three‑stage integral grille provides built‑in pop filtering for close vocal and speech applications. The ‑15dB pad handles extremely loud sources – including close‑miked drums, horns, and loud guitar cabinets – without altering the frequency response. Output impedance is 150 ohms, compatible with any standard microphone preamplifier input.
A really reliable partner
The Shure SM137 is aimed at recording engineers, musicians, and performers who need a reliable, neutral condenser across a broad range of studio and live applications. The gentle low‑frequency roll‑off helps control boominess on close‑miked acoustic sources, while the broad presence lifts preserve attack, articulation, and upper harmonic detail without colouration. Its balanced response and extended frequency range suit acoustic instruments, drum overheads, brass, woodwinds, piano, guitar amplifiers, and ensemble recording, capturing harmonic detail and fast transients with greater accuracy than a dynamic microphone. Engineers requiring lower self‑noise, a higher signal‑to‑noise ratio, or the flexibility of a three‑position low‑cut filter should instead consider the KSM137 further up Shure's instrument condenser range.
About Shure
The American company Shure began developing microphones during the early 1930s and is one of the pioneers of the audio engineering sector. Models such as the 55 Unidyne – known to many as the "Elvis microphone" – and the SM57 and SM58 which appeared in the mid-1960s are still ubiquitous in live sound production today. They enjoy cult status among musicians and technicians alike. In the 1990s, Shure introduced the first wireless microphones and in-ear monitoring systems and became a market leader in this field. In addition to microphones, Shure offers a wide range of earphones and headphones for studio and live use, as well as various accessories.
From intimacy to intensity
The SM137 adapts easily to both studio and stage duties, whether it's suspended above a drum kit, positioned over a piano, placed in front of an acoustic guitar, or used as a room microphone. The ‑15dB pad extends its reach to close‑miked loud sources without distortion, while the three‑stage integral grille controls plosives and breath noise for occasional vocal or speech duties without requiring an external pop filter. At 195g with its supplied swivel adapter, it sits comfortably on conventional microphone stands for both permanent studio installations and live performance setups. Like the rest of the SM range, the SM137 is neutral by design, dependable in practice, and built to last.
