The Beta 57® is a premium quality supercardioid, dynamic microphone,

superefficient magnetic circuit design utilizing a neodymium magnet

ideal for musical instrument applications. A provides maximum output voltage for improved signal-to-noise ratio in recording and sound reinforcement applications. Unlike many other supercardioid microphones, the Beta 57 retains a true supercardioid (unidirectional) pickup pattern throughout its frequency range.

The Beta 57 smooth wide frequency response is optimized for musical instrument recording and sound reinforcement applications. Additionally, many sound engineers prefer the Beta 57 as an alternative to traditional microphones for vocal applications. And the uniform supercardioid pattern greatly reduces off-axis coloration, increases separation between adjacent sources, and reduces feedback.

Several new Beta 57 features combine to reduce unwanted noises. The built-in humbucking coil reduces hum pickup in strong fields. Moreover, a newly designed electro-pneumatic shock mount effectively minimizes mechanically transmitted stand and handling noise. And, the gold-plated pins in the plug element ensure that efficient noiseless, energy transfer endures for the life of the microphone. The microphone's uniquely handsome and rugged grille is precisely machined from

durability.

extra-strong and dent-resistant steel for extended life and

High output, low electromagnetic hum pickup, and uniform supercardioid pickup pattern work together in synergy to optimize performance of the Beta 57.

Microphone features:

• Wide and smooth frequency response adds extra clarity and naturalness to microphone pickup
• High efficiency magnetic circuit using neodymium-iron-bo-ron magnet increases output, maximizes signal-to-noise ratio with any amplifier
• Supercardioid pattern remains uniform and symmetrical throughout the microphone's frequency range to reduce caxis coloration and feedback. while improving separation from other sound sources
