Shure Beta 98H/C Miniature Cardioid Condenser Instrument Mic
The Shure Beta_98H/C is a compact, high-performance miniature cardioid condenser microphone designed to deliver clear, detailed sound from acoustic instruments, horns, woodwinds, percussion, and strings. Featuring a low-profile mount and superior transient response, it?s ideal for both live performance and studio recording.
The Beta_98H/C offers a smooth, well-balanced frequency response tailored to musical instruments. Its cardioid polar pattern reduces ambient noise and feedback while providing clean, accurate reproduction of acoustic nuances, tone, and articulation.
