Shure Beta 57A Dynamic Microphone - Secondhand

Full Description

Sonic versatility

More than just an instrument microphone. The Shure Beta 57A lets you capture a huge variety of sources with legendary Shure sound quality. With a frequency response tailored to add definition and presence, it's the perfect match for drums, amps, horns, and vocals – on stage or in the studio.

A uniform super cardioid polar pattern provides outstanding isolation, making it ideal for capturing spill-free drum tones. What’s more, because the Beta 57A is so good at rejecting off-axis sound, you don’t have to worry about feedback issues from stage monitors or speakers.

Plus, the Neodymium magnet provides much greater sensitivity, which is ideal for capturing those quiet details. With the mic’s higher output, you can take advantage of a hotter signal to really cut through any mix.

Noise-free performance

Handling noise can be a real nuisance. The Beta 57A takes away that worry. Equipped with an advanced pneumatic shock mount system, the transfer of mechanical noise and vibrations is dramatically reduced. The result? A supremely clean and crisp sound.

Legendary Shure construction

When it's made by Shure, you know it's going to last. The Beta 57A Dynamic Microphone is no exception. The microphone's handle is crafted from robust die-cast metal with an enamel-coated finish. At the top, a dent-resistant steel mesh grille keeps your capsule safe from harm. Combined with high-quality components and decades of microphone building expertise, you can be sure that your Beta 57A will provide you with years of reliable operation.
