The Beta 87A is a premium-quality handheld electret condenser microphone that excels in live performance applications. Electret microphones consist of a permanently polarized dielectric material with properties similar to the magnetic field of a permanent magnet.
This means that microphones like the Beta 87A can incorporate a condenser capsule comparable to those found in high-end recording microphones, without the need for a polarizing power supply. That’s what gives the Beta 87A its rich, detailed sound with exceptionally smooth frequency response and high sound pressure level capability. If you’re ready for a stage mic that delivers studio-quality results, the Shure Beta 87A is for you.
Recorded at Musician’s Friend in March of 2015.
