Shure BETA 87C Cardioid Condenser Vocal Microphone
Shure BETA 87C
With its excellent rear rejection, the cardioid polar pattern of the Beta 87C helps to compensate
for the noise bleed often associated with the use of personal monitors.
The Shure BETA 87C is a high output condenser microphone that provides touring professionals with studio-quality sound.
Vocalists who use in-ear monitor systems such as the Shure PSM Personal Monitor System will appreciate how effectively
the BETA 87C rejects ambient sound from the rear of the microphone. The BETA 87C maintains its cardioid pattern throughout its frequency
range, ensuring maximum isolation from other sound sources and high gain before feedback. Its warm, natural sound is
the result of an exceptionally smooth frequency response that includes a slight presence rise. A controlled low–frequency roll-off
compensates for proximity effect and prevents the “boomy“ sound often associated with close-up use.
The BETA 87C is an excellent choice for professional studio recording, yet it is built to withstand the rigors of touring. It maintains its performance characteristics even at sound pressure levels as
high as 139 dB SPL. Plus, the cartridge is protected by a proven shock mount system. A hardened steel mesh grille with a built-in pop filter provides added protection
