Shure Beta 52 Dynamic Kick Drum Microphone

The Shure BETA 52 is a specialized dynamic instrument microphone with a tailored frequency response designed specifically for kick drums and other bass instruments. It provides superb attack and "punch," and delivers studio-quality sound even at extremely high sound pressure levels. The BETA 52 features a modified supercardioid pattern to ensure high gain before feedback and excellent rejection of unwanted sound. A built-in dynamic locking stand adapter with an integral XLR connector simplifies installation, particularly if the microphone is to be placed inside a kick drum. The stand adapter keeps the microphone position fixed and resists slipping, even when subjected to sharp blows and strong vibrations. A hardened steel mesh grille protects the BETA 52 from the abuse and wear associated with touring.
