The Shure Beta 87A vocal microphone is precision-engineered to deliver an exceptionally smooth frequency response in a supercardiod condenser design. Built to withstand extreme sound pressure levels (SPL), the Beta 87A is ideal for professional sound reinforcement and studio recording applications.
The tailored frequency response, combined with a controlled low-frequency roll-off, makes this microphone ideal for close-up lead and background vocals—especially in high SPL environments. An advanced cartridge shock mount system, hardened steel-mesh grille, and superior build quality withstand the rigors of daily touring and sound reinforcement.
FEATURES
- Premier live performance microphone with Shure quality, ruggedness, and reliability
- Uniform supercardioid pick-up pattern for maximum gain before feedback and superior rejection of off-axis sound
- Smooth, wide frequency response with gradual presence rise and controlled proximity effect tailored for vocals
- Advanced cartridge shock mount system absorbs mechanical shock and minimizes handling noise
- Dent-resistant steel mesh grille and enamel coated metal alloy construction resist wear and abuse
- Effective built-in pop filter reduces undesirable wind and breath noise
- Very low susceptibility to RF and electromagnetic hum
HOW IT WORKS
One of the world’s best-selling, single-element, condenser mic, the BETA 87A puts singers on a pedestal. Tailored frequency response concentrates on the upper midrange to raise vocal presence in the mix. So voices cut through clearly and resonate deeply with your audience.
WHY IT'S BETTER
Set your singing apart
The supercardioid pattern provides maximum isolation of your voice, giving you the chance to shine.
Never overpowered
Get right up on the mic without overwhelming the sound. Electronically controlled low-end roll-off keeps your bass from blasting over the mix.
Resists rattle
The advanced cartridge shock-mount system lets you handle the mic a little harder while absorbing any mechanical noise.
