Shure BETA 87C Vocal Condenser, cardioid £239.98
Description
Developed in response to professional demands associated with the use of personal monitoring devices like the Shure PSM series, the Beta87C premium vocal microphone delivers studio-grade performance and a smooth, extended high-end frequency response in a cardioid condenser design.
The Beta 87C has an extremely smooth, tailored response for a warm, natural sound. The uniform cardioid polar pattern rejects ambient noise arriving at the rear of the microphone, while compensating for the isolation often associated with the use of personal monitors. This can minimize potential undesireable sounds that may bleed into personal monitor mixes.
Beta 87C - Includes stand adapter. Cable not included.
