BETA 87 A Vocal Condenser Supercardioid Mic

The precision-engineered Beta 87A condenser vocal microphone has a smooth, tailored response for warm, accurate sound. Its supercardioid polar pattern provides maximum isolation from nearby vocalists or instruments.

The Shure Beta 87A is a premium quality supercardioid hand-held condenser vocal microphone with exceptionally smooth frequency response and high sound pressure level capability. It is ideal for a professional lead or backing vocalist either on stage, for live recording or in the studio.

The Beta 87A features a controlled low-frequency roll-off that compensates for proximity effect and prevents the “boomy” sound often associated with close pick-up. The tailored frequency responce with its presence rise , brightens the upper midrange and helps the vocals cut through the mix. The tight supercardioid pattern provides maximum isolation from other vocalists or instruments while offering minimal off-axis coloration. It operates on phantom power.
