The Beta 57A is a precision-engineered dynamic microphoneDynamic mics have a simple, rugged construction and can handle very high sound pressure levels.Read moreGo to the glossary designed for detailed reproduction of amplified or acoustic instruments. A tight supercardioidPicks up most sound in front of the microphone and very little from the sides, making it more directional than a cardioid mic.

Tailored frequency responseThis is the range of frequencies, from the lowest to the highest, that a mic can pick up.
provides drums, guitars, vocals, and horns with studio quality sound
Uniform supercardioidPicks up most sound in front of the microphone and very little from the sides, making it more directional than a cardioid mic.
pattern for high gain-before-feedback and superior rejection of off–axis sound
Hardened steel mesh grille that facilitates use of proximity effectWith a directional mic, more bass is added when the mic is closer to the sound source. and resists wear and abuse
Neodymium magnet for high signal–to–noise ratio output
Minimally affected by varying load impedanceThis describes how resistant an electrical circuit is to the flow of electricity passing through it.
Advanced pneumatic shock mount system that minimizes transmission of mechanical noise and vibration
Legendary Shure quality and reliability
