Description

Overview

The Beta 98H/C miniature cardioid condenser microphone clamps onto the bell of wind instruments or onto the rim of percussion instruments. The integrated gooseneck and ratcheting swivel joint allows the mic to be easily positioned and secured, and an isolation shockmount reduces the transmission of instrument vibrations. A gooseneck angle brace is included to provide better retention of the desired microphone placement.

Featuring a highly consistent cardioid polar pattern, the Beta 98H/C provides high gain before feedback and smooth off-axis rejection. Its ability to handle extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL) makes it ideal for live sound reinforcement on a variety of instruments.
