Product details

The Beta 56A is a top-of-the-line dynamic microphone designed for snare, toms, and percussion. It is compact, extremely robust, and has a present, powerful sound as well as the highest feedback resistance.

Where is the Beta 56A used?
The Beta 56A is a professional dynamic microphone, especially developed for use on snare, toms, and percussion instruments. It is often used by professional musicians and sound engineers on very loud stages. The Beta 56A is also frequently seen in studio recordings.

How does the Beta 56A sound?
The high-quality dynamic capsule with neodymium magnet produces a powerful, present sound that precisely transmits the punch of drums and percussion. Even extremely high volumes are transmitted without distortion. The very uniform supercardioid characteristic suppresses ambient noise, such as adjacent toms or cymbals, extremely effectively and fundamentally increases feedback immunity.

What special features does the Beta 56A have?
The compact design of the microphone saves space and can be easily attached so that it is not in the way when playing. The adjustable stand adapter with integrated XLR connector makes mounting extremely easy and fast. The extremely robust construction with hardened steel basket easily withstands every hit of a drumstick.

Summary:
Top-class dynamic microphone for snare, toms, and percussion instruments. Powerful yet present sound. Uniform supercardioid polar pattern provides maximum feedback rejection. Highest possible gain and maximum suppression of ambient noise. Transmits even extremely high volumes without distortion. Neodymium magnet for high sensitivity and high output level. Adjustable stand adapter with integrated XLR connector. Integrated pop filter reduces annoying wind noise. Pneumatic shock absorber minimizes impact sound and grip noise. Hardened steel basket and extremely robust metal construction protect against damage.
