Product Description

Shure Beta 58 A Bundle

*Bundle offer comprising*, Shure Beta 58 A

*Dynamic Vocal Microphone*

In the tradition of the SM58, the dynamic Beta 58A has become the first choice among singers and professional sound engineers.

The Beta 58A is a dynamic, high-output vocals microphone designed for professional audio amplification and use in the recording studio. The supercardioid polar pattern extends over the entire transmission range and guarantees high, feedback resistant amplifications, maximum isolation from other sound sources and a minimum of off-axis sound. The contoured frequency response is ideal for close-up vocals.

Due to its robust construction, proven shock absorber system, and hardened steel windscreen, its outstanding performance is not compromised even with rough handling. Typical applications of the Beta 58A are lead vocals, backup vocals, and speech.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Beta 58A has a more modern sound with increased output and a tighter pattern; the SM58 is more forgiving and has a slightly warmer tone.
While primarily a vocal mic, it can be used on instruments like guitar amps, but its focused response may not suit all sources.
A clean, mid-focused preamp will generally work well, though a little added warmth can help tame any potential harshness.
