Shure KSM313 Dual-Voice Ribbon Microphone

The Shure KSM313/NE is a ribbon microphone that offers two distinct sonic characters in one bi directional package, making it a flexible choice for both studio sessions and live stages.

The microphone’s dual voice motor lets you tailor the sound by simply turning the mic. Aim the bright side toward a singer or narrator when you want extra presence and clarity. Flip it around, and the opposite side delivers a tone that feels warm and full, an ideal match for guitar cabinets, brass sections, or any source that benefits from added body.

At the heart of the KSM313/NE lies Shure’s Roswellite ribbon material. This advanced ribbon stands up to sound pressure levels as high as 146 dB without stretching or deforming, so you can position the mic in front of loud amplifiers or drums with confidence.

The microphone works passively and connects through a standard three pin XLR, so there is no need for external power. Each unit is hand assembled in the United States using machined steel and aluminum along with gold and silver components, a construction approach that helps the mic withstand the demands of touring and daily studio use.

Engineers and performers who need fast tonal options will appreciate how quickly the KSM313/NE adapts. Flip to the bright side for a vocal that cuts through a mix, or switch to the warm side for a thicker instrumental capture. The bi directional pattern also helps control room reflections and bleed, keeping the focus on the intended source.
