3 Pin XLR

The Shure BETA®57A is a high output supercardioid dynamic microphone designed for professional sound reinforcement and project studio recording. It maintains a true supercardioid pattern throughout its frequency range. This insures high gain-before-feedback, maximum isolation from other sound sources, and minimum off–axis tone coloration. 

Excellent for acoustic and electric instruments as well as for vocals, the extremely versatile Beta 57A dynamic microphone provides optimal warmth and presence. Typical applications include drums, guitar amplifiers, brass, woodwinds and vocals.

The Shure BETA®87A is a premium quality supercardioid hand-held electret condenser vocal microphone with exceptionally smooth frequency response and high sound pressure level capability. Used for professional sound reinforcement, broadcasting, and studio recording applications, the Beta 87A combines superb performance with the ruggedness needed for touring and field production.

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 characteristic Shure presence rise brightens the upper midrange. The tight supercardioid pattern, with null points at approximately 125 degrees, provides maximum isolation from other vocalists or instruments while offering minimal off-axis coloration. The Beta 87A operates on phantom power.

Hypercardioid

Subcardioid

"The Shure KSM9HS is a great-sounding mic, offering two distinctly different polar patterns for a variety of sound reinforcement applications. The hypercardioid pattern is ideal for discrete audio capture, especially in high-level situations where isolation and high gain before feedback are desired." 


Church Production Magazine, 25.02.2013

"The sound of the KSM9HS is similar to that of its sibling - clean, open and smooth, but the hypercardioid mode's tightness also gives it a nice forward punch"


Recording, Feb. 2013

"What Shure has done here is add to an already amazing package and make it even more adaptable."
