Shure BETA 87A Live Vocal Microphone

The Shure Beta 87A features a controlled low-frequency roll-off that compensates for proximity effect and prevents the boom sound often associated with close pick-up. The tight supercardioid pattern, with null points at approximately 125 degrees, provides maximum isolation from other vocalists or instruments while offering minimal off-axis coloration. The Beta 87A operates on phantom power.
