Description
Get a clean, natural, and focused sound from your drums and percussion with this professional-grade, discreet microphone.
Product Description
The Shure Beta 98A is a compact, high-performance condenser microphone engineered to capture the dynamic sound of drums, percussion, and other instruments with incredible detail. Its super cardioid polar pattern provides superior rejection of off-axis sounds, allowing you to isolate your instrument from the rest of the stage for a cleaner, more focused mix. The integrated flexible gooseneck and a variety of specialised clips make it a discrete and versatile solution, eliminating the need for bulky mic stands.
The Beta 98A excels at capturing the “crack” of a snare drum, the rich tone of toms, or the intricate details of hand percussion. Its high SPL (sound pressure level) handling ensures that it can capture even the loudest sources without distortion.
This microphone is a perfect fit within a complete band backline package or alongside a full drum microphone kit.
