Beta 87A Vocal Microphone

The Beta 87A is known as one of theworlds most durable and reliable vocalcondenser microphones. Its smooth,tailored frequency response offers detail,accuracy and warmth to any vocal.Its extremely accurate supercardioid patternat all frequencies provides maximumgain-before-feedback and minimizes off-axis tone coloration. A hardened steel meshgrille facilitates the use of proximity effectand resists wear and abuse.

Beta 87C Vocal Microphone

The Beta 87C offers a smooth, extendedfrequency response with slight presencerise and warmth for vocals. The uniformcardioid pattern provides excellent rearrejection, creating an ideal environmentfor in-ear-monitoring. As with the Beta 87A,the Beta 87C minimizes off-axis tonecoloration, and its hardened steel meshgrille facilitates the use of proximity effectand resists wear and abuse.

Beta 57A

Instrument Microphone

No instrument microphone can be allthings to all musicians, but the Beta 57Acomes close. Featuring a tailored frequencyresponse, the Beta 57A is at home onamplified or acoustic instruments.Its uniform supercardioid pattern pro-vides high gain-before-feedback andsuperior rejection of off-axis sound, whilethe advanced pneumatic shock mountsystem minimizes transmission ofmechanical noise and vibration. And thehardened steel mesh grille is toughenough to withstand years of drumstick

impact without missing a beat.

Beta 56 ASnare/Tom Microphone

Specifically tailored for snare and tom drums, theBeta 56A inspires long-time followers and new usersalike. Its built-in stand adapter with a dynamic lockingsystem and XLR connector simplifies setup andprovides greater flexibility.The uniform supercardioid patternensures superior rejection of off-axis sound. Along with a wear-resistant, hardened steel mesh grilleand an advanced pneumatic shock mountthat minimizes mechanical noise andvibration, the Beta 56A can withstandabusive environments both on and off stage.

Beta 52 AKick Drum Microphone

Designed to capture low frequency sound, theBeta 52A delivers a new level of low-end punch onkick drums and other bass instruments.Its built-in dynamic locking standadapter with integral XLR connectorsimplifies setup, especially insidea kick drum. The supercardioidpattern ensures superior rejection ofunwanted noise, while the advancedshock mount keeps mechanical noise andvibration pickup to a minimum. Featuring ahardened steel mesh grille, the Beta 52A isdesigned to withstand the wear and tear of life

on the road.

Beta 91Kick Drum Microphone

Designed specifically for kick drums, the Beta 91brings the power of a condenser microphone to yourpercussion. The Beta 91 combines superior attackand punch even at the extremely high soundpressure levels encountered inside a kick drum.Its boundary effect design produces a strong, solidlow-end response for heavy bassapplications. The low-profiledesign of the Beta 91eliminates theneed for externalmounting hardware.

Beta 98H/CInstrument Microphone

From the bell of your saxophone to the rim of yoursnare, the Beta 98H/C captures the nuances of yourinstrument. Its high maximum sound pressure level(SPL) enables the Beta 98H/C to handle the extremedemands of brass, woodwind and percussioninstruments. An isolation shock mount reduces thetransmission of instrument key noise and othermechanical noise; gooseneck, ratcheting swivel jointand gooseneck angle brace allow for optimumplacement and fixed positioning.

Beta 98D/SSnare/Tom Microphone

For toms, snares, and percussion instruments, noother microphone stands up to the performance andversatility of the Beta 98D/S. Its ultra-uniform super-cardioid pickup pattern provides high gain-before-feedback and excellent rejection of unwanted noise.The optional cardioid cartridge allows to easily adaptthe microphone to varying applications.The Beta 98D/S comes with the unique A98D drummount featuring a flexible gooseneck and clamp thatlet you position the microphone in practically anyconfiguration.

Beta 53Headworn Vocal Microphone

The Beta 53 provides clear and natural speechreproduction through an omnidirectional condensermicrophone. Its snap-fit foam windscreen stays inplace during intensive movement, and the thin,non-reflective wireframe is easily hidden underneathhair. The thin detachable microphone boom mountallows for right or left positioning. Interchangeablefrequency response caps (mild or high) included.

Beta 54Headworn Vocal Microphone

When staying in one place isnt an option, Beta head-worn vocal microphones provide total freedom ofmovement. The supercardioid condenser cartridge inthe Beta 54 provides maximum gain-before-feedbackand superior ambient rejection. Its ability to handleextremely high sound pressure levels (SPL) makes theBeta 54 the ideal choice for demanding live performanceapplications.
