3-Pack BETA 98AMP/C Miniature Drum Microphone

The Shure Beta 98AMP is a precision-engineered miniature cardioid condenser microphone for professional sound reinforcement and studio recording. Features an integrated XLR preamplifier with a flexible gooseneck and the A75M Universal Microphone Mount for accurate placement in any configuration of toms, snares, or percussion. An extremely uniform cardioid polar pattern provides excellent gain-before-feedback, off-axis rejection of unwanted noise, and high maximum sound pressure level (SPL).

Features

• Uniform cardioid polar pattern provides maximum gain-before-feedback and rejection of off-axis sound for smooth high-end response and control • Precision-engineered design features integrated preamplifier and XLR connector to maximize setup efficiency while minimizing stage clutter • Frequency response tailored for drums and percussion applications with a wide dynamic range for use in high SPL environments • Flexible gooseneck for precise placement and easy adjustment

• Ships with A75M Universal Microphone mount with quick release, for versatile and secure instrument and/or stand mounting • Furnished with snap-fit windscreen and zipper pouch Cartridge Type: Electret Condenser Polar Pattern: Cardioid Frequency Response: 20 to 20,000 Hz Output Impedance: 150 Sensitivity open circuit voltage, @ 1 kHz, typical C50.5 dBV/Pa[1] (2.5 mV) Maximum SPL 1 kHz at 1% THD[2] 2500 load: 157.5 dB SPL 1000 load: 153 dB SPL Signal-to-Noise Ratio[3] 63 dB Dynamic Range @ 1 kHz 2500 load: 126.5 dB 1000 load: 122 dB Clipping Level @ 1 kHz, 1% THD 2500 load: 12.5 dBV 1000 load: 7.5 dBV Self Noise equivalent SPL, A-weighted, typical 31.0 dB SPL-A Common Mode Rejection 10 to 100,000 kHz 60 dB Polarity Positive pressure on diaphragm produces positive voltage on pin 2 with respect to pin 3 Power Requirements 11C52 V DC[4] phantom power (IEC-61938), 5.5 mA Net Weight 130 g (4.6 oz.)
