  • The Shure Beta 98A is a precision-engineered compact, high-output miniature condenser microphone for professional sound reinforcement and studio recording. An extremely uniform cardioid polar pattern provides excellent gain-before-feedback and off-axis rejection of unwanted noise.

    The Beta 98AD/C features high sound pressure level capability (SPL) and includes the A98D drum mount with flexible gooseneck that makes it an essential, accurate choice for toms, snares, and percussion.

    Features:

    • Uniform cardioid polar pattern provides maximum gain-before-feedback and rejection of off-axis sound for smooth high-end response and control
    • Frequency response tailored for drums and percussion applications with a wide dynamic range for use in high SPL environments
    • Precision-engineered design for unobtrusive microphone footprint
    • Ships with external in-line preamplifier for discreet cable placement, snap-fit windscreen, and zipper pouch
    • Ships with A98D drum mount featuring a flexible gooseneck for precise placement and secure attachment
