Product Description

In the tradition of the SM58, the Beta 58A dynamic microphone has become a top choice among vocalists and touring sound professionals. The Shure Beta 58A is a high-output supercardioid dynamic vocal 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. The Beta 58A has a shaped frequency response that is ideal for close-up vocals. The superb performance of this microphone is not affected by rough handling because of its rugged construction, proven shock mount system, and hardened steel mesh grille. Typical applications for the Beta 58A include lead vocals, backup vocals and speech. Smooth, extended frequency response for outstanding sound for professional live vocal use Consistent supercardioid pattern provides the best gain-before-feedback among dynamic microphones Pneumatic shock mount reduces handling noise Frequency response: 50 to 16,000 Hz

Customer Reviews

Shure for sure!
Not much to say, Shure is THE brand. The Beta 58A is great for both vocal and acoustic guitar, in both studio and live environments.

For vocals alone, also check the SM-58 (live), the SM-7B (studio) and the Beta-58A (quite similar to the SM-58, a bit cheaper).

One thing I could never understand, though: why make two versions, one with a power swith and another (the one I own) without?
