Shure BETA27 Instrument and Vocal Microphone

The BETA 27 is ideal for a wide range of acoustic, wind, and electric instruments, including guitar and bass amplifiers, drums, percussion, and piano. The tight supercardioid polar pattern ensures high gain-before-feedback and offers maximum isolation from other sound sources, making it perfect for live applications. The BETA 27 is designed to deliver unparalleled transient response thanks to an ultra-thin, lightweight, externally biased Mylar diaphragm.

It also offers a flat, neutral frequency response for natural reproduction. The BETA 27 uses top-quality electronic components and gold-plated internal and external connectors. It includes a 3-position low-frequency filter that helps reduce background noise and counteracts proximity effect, as well as a switchable 15 dB pad that can easily handle extremely high sound pressure levels. The internal pop filter, consisting of 3 independent mesh layers, reduces wind and breath noise. The BETA 27 is a supercardioid mic, while the SM27 is cardioid. You can expect a more concise and full-bodied sound with the BETA 27.
