Shure Beta 52A dynamic microphone for bass drum

The Beta 52A model has been optimized for low-frequency performance and handling high sound pressure levels. The microphone features a supercardioid polar pattern, ensuring maximum isolation from other signal sources present on stage.

What is the Beta 52A microphone best used for?

It is an ideal solution for professional musicians who want to amplify a kick drum, bass amplifier, or acoustic bass. Its sound quality and construction allow for its use both on stage and in the studio.

What is the polar pattern of the Beta 52A?

Supercardioid polar pattern limits interference from other sound sources present on stage and also prevents feedback. Frequency response is perfectly tailored for bass instruments with a frequency range from 20 Hz to 10 kHz and a 4 kHz presence boost to ensure better punch in the electric mix for bass guitars and kick drums.

The Beta 52A is available as part of the DMK57-52 Drum Mic Kit, which includes three SM57 microphones, one Beta 52A microphone, three A56D drum mounts, and a lightweight, durable carrying case.
