Shure Beta 91A
Product Description
The Shure Beta 91A is a half-cardioid condenser microphone built specifically for bass drum, offering strong low end and maximum gain-before-feedback. Its low-profile, precision-engineered design drops easily into the bass drum without external mounting, and a two-position contour switch lets you tailor the sound to the application.
- Half-cardioid polar pattern for maximum gain-before-feedback and rejection of off-axis sound
- Low-profile design with integrated preamp and XLR connector for fast, clutter-free setup
- Frequency response tailored for bass drum and other low-frequency sources, with a wide dynamic range for high SPL environments
- Two-position contour switch: "flat" for a natural sound or "low-mid scoop" for strong low-frequency punch with pronounced high-frequency attack
- Requires no external mounting
Best Suited For
The primary use for the Beta 91A is bass drum, but it also works well for other low-frequency sources, including piano.
Features
The Beta 91A is a half-cardioid condenser microphone tailored for bass frequencies. It delivers a strong low-end response and studio-quality attack and punch, even at extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL).
Difference From the Beta 91
The Beta 91A features a new, updated microphone capsule compared to its predecessor, the Beta 91. The new capsule provides a more natural high-frequency response.
Other Shure Bass Drum Microphones
The Shure Beta 52A is a supercardioid microphone also well suited for bass drum, and is an even more affordable alternative.
