Bridge the gap. Don’t lose the raw power of live drums with inferior mics. The Shure Beta 98AMP/C can capture that power through a huge 20Hz-20kHz frequency response.
Along with a lightweight diaphragm that can pick up the crack, snap, and punch of a live drum kit. The smallest adjustments can be some of the most time-consuming. Anyone who has used mic stands regularly knows how clunky they can be. But getting the right drum sound requires precision. And that’s what the Shure Beta 98AMP/C gives you. Precision.
The extremely flexible gooseneck combined with a compact clip-on design means you can make tiny changes without fuss.
Effortless positioning. Need more snap? A simple movement is all it takes. This mini microphone is built for getting into tight spots. Small precise adjustments are effortless. Simply fine-tune the mic’s position using the flexible gooseneck to locate the drum’s sweet spot. No more wrestling with cumbersome stands amongst drum hardware. The innovative A75M microphone mounts can be clamped onto any drum. And with 360-degree flexibility, it’s just as easy to mic the underside of your drum. And because the capsules have been engineered to be as small as possible, it’s easy to avoid getting in the way of stray drum hits.
Capturing what makes drums special. Drums are loud. When played hard, the sound pressure created is enormous. To record drums properly, you need microphones that can handle the peaks and pick up the quiet details. Because the Beta 98AMP/C can handle very high sound pressure levels, they comfortably capture the explosive sound of live drums. Combined with the lightweight diaphragm, the subtle idiosyncrasies of a live drummer will be faithfully reproduced in astounding detail. The Beta 98AMP/C translates the visceral experience of drums through your speakers.
Don’t lose detail to spill. Spill can make it almost impossible to mix your drums. To avoid it, you need microphones to pick up exactly what you intend. Which is why the Beta 98AMP/C has a uniform cardioid polar pattern which rejects sound coming from other parts of the kit. So when you mix a snare, you are mixing a snare and nothing else.
Legendary Shure durability. Don’t be fooled by the mic’s diminutive design. The Beta 98AMP/C boasts the rugged tour-tough construction Shure is renowned for. An enamel-coated metal enclosure and stainless-steel inner grille can handle the knocks and scrapes from any drum performance. Shure rigorously tests all their microphones to guarantee their durability in almost any environment. The Beta 98AMP/C has been subject to heat, cold, humidity, and the ‘Shure drop test’. A microphone that is built to last.
