Shure BETA 58 A

Description

A stage beast!
Thanks to the exceptional quality of the air suspension installed inside its capsule, the microphone benefits from impressive insulation. This allows it to be held and manipulated without generating extraneous noise. In addition, its rigorous supercardioid directivity, totally coherent whatever the frequency, makes it very insensitive to feedback, a characteristic perfect for use with returns. These are all essential assets for unprecedented comfort in live use.
 
Remarkable versatility.
Although intended for live, the Beta 58A can however find its place in many home studio recording configurations thanks to its warmth and dynamic precision. Its fairly low sensitivity (-51.5 dBV / Pa) is, in fact, a decisive factor of great versatility. It can thus be widely used for recording guitar amps, brass, or even drum drums. In short, a real essential for sound recording, whatever it is!

Features:
- Directionality: Supercardioid
- Optimized frequency band for excellent use on stage
- High resistance against feedback and maximum background noise suppression
- Pneumatic shock absorber against impact and handling noise
- Frequency response: 50 - 16,000 Hz
- Impedance: 290 Ohm
- Sensitivity: -51.5 dBV / Pa (2.66 mV)
- Supplied with clamp, 3/8 "thread reduction adapter and carrying case
- Dimensions: 160 x 50 mm
- Weight: 278 g
Brand reference number: SSE BETA58A

I'm not a technician so I'm simply describing my feelings. I was lent a sm58, so I was able to make the difference between the beta58a and the latter which undoubtedly has a clearer sound, no need to put the mic against the mouth, like with the sm58 which forgives some interpretation errors whereas the beta58a requires more precision in singing, it can be nuanced even more. Basically the sm58 is made for rock, the beta58a for vocals such as jazz, new French song. I was bothered by the sound of the sm58, not convinced, lacked nuance, now I think I have the mic I need. Alright, that's enough, time to get to work now...

After having had Senheiser E955, Shure 57, Shure 58, AKG, .... and none of them pleased me (lack of gain, feedback, flat voice,...), I bought this Shure a bit reluctantly. What a surprise!!! Insane gain, I can't make it feedback unless I really try (when I see my singer whose Senheiser always feedbacks...), it's perfect. Beautiful tone. Only small flaw: no on/off button even if it's not useful since it never feedbacks and has no background noise. Buy with your eyes closed!!!! Lionel, singer for 20 years, powerful slightly hoarse (and rock) voice.

I want to thank woodbrass for the fast delivery. I received my package in 2 days flat. I thought it would take longer since I am in the DOM. Since I was absent, I will pick up my package tomorrow and I will test it at my rehearsal. I will give you my feedback afterwards. A big bravo to woodbrass

A high-end product derived from the legendary SM 58! On a Presonus studio channel preamp, it's really top quality, I am very pleasantly surprised... My first surprise, delivery in one day!!! Thanks to whom? Thanks MR woodbrass.com and all his team.

I thank woodbrass because I finally found the microphone I needed. The sound is so clear and crisp. A superb microphone that exactly reproduces everything you do with your voice. What to say, long live woodbrass and Shure microphones

Great mic, the sound is really clear compared to the Shure SM58, ambient noises are well attenuated and despite that, you don't have to be 0.1mm from the mic to be heard! Top!

A very convincing purchase. Perfectly matches the use I have for it, the sound capture is flattering in the bass and the Shure robustness is there... I really like it a lot.

Ideal microphone for voice, which highlights it well while avoiding low and high feedback. More powerful than the ones I used, it allows better adjustment. I recommend it.
