Shure Beta 52A Bass Drum Microphone

Description

Capture powerful low-end sound with the Shure Beta 52A Bass Drum Microphone, a professional dynamic microphone engineered for kick drums, bass guitar cabinets, and other low-frequency instruments. Designed for live performances and studio recording, this microphone delivers outstanding clarity, punch, and durability in demanding environments. The Beta 52A features a supercardioid pickup pattern that focuses on sound directly in front of the microphone while minimizing unwanted noise and feedback from the sides. This ensures clean, accurate audio reproduction even on loud stages and in busy recording environments. Built specifically for bass-heavy applications, the microphone delivers deep, tight low frequencies with clear midrange response, making it ideal for kick drums, bass amplifiers, floor toms, and other high-impact sound sources. Its exceptional sensitivity captures subtle details while handling extremely high sound pressure levels of up to 174 dB SPL without distortion. The rugged all-metal construction provides outstanding durability for touring musicians, sound engineers, churches, studios, and rental companies. An advanced pneumatic shock-mount system reduces handling noise and mechanical vibrations, resulting in cleaner recordings and more stable live performances. For added convenience, the Shure Beta 52A includes a built-in stand adapter with an integrated XLR connector, allowing quick installation and secure positioning during performances or recording sessions. With a 20 Hz to 10,000 Hz frequency response, 150-ohm output impedance, and professional-grade performance, the Shure Beta 52A is a trusted choice for musicians and audio professionals who demand reliable, high-quality bass reproduction. ### Key Features • Professional dynamic microphone for kick drums and bass instruments • Supercardioid pickup pattern for excellent sound isolation • Optimized frequency response of 20 Hz–10,000 Hz • Handles sound pressure levels up to 174 dB SPL • High sensitivity for detailed low-frequency capture • Pneumatic shock-mount system minimizes handling noise • Built-in stand adapter with integrated XLR connector • Rugged all-metal construction for long-lasting durability • Ideal for live performances, studio recording, churches, and events • Weight: Approximately 0.605 kg
