Beta 57A Instrument Microphone

The Shure Beta 57A® is a high output supercardioid dynamic microphone designed for professional sound reinforcement and project studio recording. It maintains a true supercardioid pattern throughout its frequency range. This insures high gain-before-feedback, maximum isolation from other sound sources, and minimum off–axis tone coloration. 

Excellent for acoustic and electric instruments as well as for vocals, the extremely versatile Beta 57A dynamic microphone provides optimal warmth and presence. Typical applications include drums, guitar amplifiers, brass, woodwinds and vocals.

PG81 Instrument Microphone

A sensitive, flat response condenser microphone ideal for acoustic instruments.

PG81-XLR includes a 15ft (4.57m) XLR to XLR Cable, Microphone Clip, 5/8" to 3/8" Thread Adapter, and a Storage Bag.
A sensitive, flat response microphone ideal for acoustic instruments.  Cardioid, Condenser.

Features

    * Flat frequency response is wide and uniform. Consistent sensitivity through frequency range.
    * Cardioid polar pattern picks up the most sound from in front of the microphone and some sound from the sides. Less susceptible to feedback in high volume settings.
    * Condenser cartridge has a lightweight, sensitive diaphragm. Precisely and smoothly captures sound nuances.
    * Powered by AA battery or phantom power supply.
    * Internal shock mount for reduced handling noise.
    * Durable metal construction.
    * On/off switch for onstage control.

KSM109SL

The Shure KSM109 offers incredible performance, combining an extended frequency response for natural sound reproduction with a smooth high end and a tight, controlled low end. It is all the microphone you need for studio instrument recording.

 
Some typical applications for the KSM109 are listed below, but the microphone may be used for a variety of applications other than those listed.

    * Acoustic instruments -- such as piano, guitar, drums, percussion, strings
    * Wind instruments -- brass and woodwind
    * Overhead miking -- drums or percussion
    * Ensembles -- choral or orchestral
    * Room ambiance pick-up -- guitar amplifier or drums

 
Both the acoustic environment and microphone placement strongly affect the sound obtained from miking a source. You may need to experiment with microphone placement and room treatments to achieve the best overall sound for each application.

 
The KSM109 combines an extended frequency response for natural sound reproduction with a smooth high end and a tight, controlled low end. It is all the microphone you need for studio instrument recording.  Cardiod, Condenser.
Features

    * A tight cardioid polar pattern
    * Transformerless Class-A preamplifier circuitry design
    * Outstanding transparency without crossover distortion
    * An extended frequency response (20Hz to 20KHz)
    * Natural reproduction of sound with a smooth high-end and a tight/controlled low-end
    * Switchable 15dB Pad allows the input of a wider range of SPL sources

    * KSM109/SL with windscreen and zippered carrying case.

KSM27/SL
