Overview

The Beta 52A is a precision-engineered dynamic microphone with a tailored frequency response designed specifically for kick drums and other bass instruments. It provides superb attack and “punch,” and delivers studio quality sound even at extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL). An integrated, locking stand adapter simplifies mounting and adjustments.
