Description
Shure Beta 91 Microphone
The Shure Beta91 is designed for use with kick drums, as well as other traditional low-frequency applications including piano. The uniform half-cardioid polar pattern for maximum gain-before-feedback and rejection of off-axis sound. Precision-engineered low-profile design features an integrated preamplifier and XLR connector to maximize setup efficiency while minimizing stage clutter. The Beta 52A is a super-cardioid microphone and is also suited to kick drums. With the Beta 52A, you can expect an even more low end.
Frequency response tailored for kick drum/low-frequency applications with a wide dynamic range for use in high SPL environments. Two-position contour switch to maximize attack and clarity depending on the application: select the flat response setting for natural sound in most applications or the “low-mid scoop” setting for a strong low frequency “punch” with plenty of higher frequency attack. The primary use of the Beta 91A is kick drums. It can also be used for other low-frequency applications including piano.
The Beta 91A is a half cardioid condenser boundary microphone. You can expect a strong low-end response as it is specifically tailored for bass frequency applications, and superior attack and punch for studio-quality sound even at extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL). The Beta 91A features a new and updated microphone capsule. The new capsule will result in a more natural high-frequency response than the Beta 91.
