The BLX288/B58-S8 is a wireless handheld microphone system that delivers all the quality you expect from Shure. They’ve taken one of the most revered microphones in live music and made it wireless. Great sound. Tour-tough construction. But now you’re truly free when you perform.
And with the BLX88 dual receiver, you can run both Beta 58s at the same time. It’s perfect for singers and public speakers. Built to ensure rock solid signal from transmitter to receiver, Shure BLX Wireless Systems eliminate drop-outs and interference. And thanks to one-touch Quickscan technology, all the hard work is done for you. Locating the best frequency for your performance is as easy as pushing a button. No trial and error. No complicated set up. Just one press.
So how do I get set up? It’s simple. Plug both the mic outputs (found on the back of the receiver) into channels on your mixing desk. Just like normal wired microphones. Press the group button on the receiver to perform a Quickscan. This searches your environment to locate the clearest frequency for each of your transmitters. Finally, pair the transmitters to the receiver. Do this by using the transmitter’s group and channel buttons. The ready LED on the receiver will light up. And it’s as easy as that! You can now perform with wireless freedom.
Beta 58 Microphone Transmitter: Don’t let your vocals just sit in the background, let them take center stage. Give them authority. The Beta 58A handheld transmitter does exactly that. This premium microphone delivers punchy and clear vocals. Without exaggerated highs or muddy lows. Imbued with smart wireless technology, it automatically links with your BLX receiver for seamless frequency matching. And faithfully performs up to 30 meters (100 feet) away. When you’re moving around the stage, the BLX2/B58 focuses on you. The supercardioid polar pattern offers superior noise rejection, greatly reducing feedback issues from nearby stage monitors. It’s tuned to help your voice cut through the mix thanks to a smooth presence boosts at 4kHz and 9kHz. And those distracting pop sounds are tamed by the steel mesh filter. There’s also an advanced pneumatic shock-mount system for completely eliminating handling noise. Despite housing impressive technology, the Beta 58 is lightweight and durable. And the safely recessed on/off switch stays out of the way. Everything is in place so you can perform at your best.
Comprehensive monitoring: With a Shure BLX24 System, you get wireless freedom with total peace of mind. The receiver’s “ready” LED will tell you when your system is set up and secure. You don’t need to worry about signal dropouts. If the channel starts clipping, an LED switches from green to red, letting you know if you should activate the transmitter’s -10dB gain control. There is even an LED monitor to tell you when the batteries are running low on the transmitter. Everything is clear and simple for effortless setup straight out of the box.
Legendary Shure durability: Boasting the tour-tough construction Shure is revered for, the BLX288/B58-S8 has been rigorously tested to make sure it can handle any environment. All Shure wireless systems are subject to heat, cold, humidity, and the “Shure drop test”. They are built to survive the demands of life on the road. They’re ready for every performance.
