Low self-noise and a supercardioid pattern
that delivers high gain-before-feedback
makes the Beta 27 ideal for critical live
and studio applications.

Features

• Supercardioid polar pattern specifically targets the sound source consistently with greatly minimized bleed from off-axis sound sources
• Tailored for superior transient response from a low-mass, 1” externally-biased, ultra-thin 24 Karat gold-layered Mylar® diaphragm
• Flat, neutral frequency response for natural reproduction on stage or in the studio
• 3-position switchable low-frequency filter helps reduce unwanted background noise or counteract proximity effect for consistent, extended lowend 		 • -15 dB switchable attenuator handles extremely high SPLs with ease
• Premium electronic components and gold-plated internal and external connectors
• Internal pop filter with three separate mesh layers reduces wind and breath noise.
