The Shure Beta 56®A microphone has a frequency response specifically tailored for drums and instruments. Its extremely uniform supercardioid pickup pattern provides high gain-before-feedback and excellent rejection of unwanted noise.
A built-in dynamic locking stand adapter with an integral XLR connector simplifies installation. The stand adapter keeps the microphone securely in place even if it is struck by a drumstick. Typical Beta 56A applications include close miking of tom-toms and other percussion instruments as well as guitar amplifiers brass instruments and woodwinds.
