Built to withstand the punishment of professional touring while capturing every nuance of your low-end performance, the Shure Beta 52®A stands as the industry standard for kick drum and bass instrument miking. This high-output dynamic microphone features a frequency response specifically tailored for bass instruments, providing exceptional attack and punch that maintains studio-quality sound reproduction even under extreme sound pressure levels.
The Beta 52A’s modified supercardioid pickup pattern operates consistently across its entire frequency range, ensuring maximum gain before feedback whilst providing superior rejection of unwanted ambient noise. Its built-in dynamic locking stand adapter incorporates an integral XLR connector, making installation straightforward — particularly when positioning the microphone inside a kick drum where the locking mechanism prevents slippage despite heavy vibrations and impacts.
Professional reliability comes standard with the Beta 52A’s hardened steel mesh grille that resists touring abuse, while an advanced pneumatic shock mount system minimises mechanical noise transmission. The neodymium magnet construction ensures high signal-to-noise ratio output with low sensitivity to varying load impedance, backed by Shure’s renowned build quality and dependability that professionals trust worldwide.
