Product information

Product no: TM-BETA91A

General

Introducing, the new and improved Beta 91. Shure hasn't changed a thing about the exterior design of this microphone; instead, they spent their time improving the technology inside it. Its unique design was already successful because it eliminated the need for mounting materials. You can simply place it inside a bass drum or piano for precision recording. Distortion is the least of your worries thanks to this mic's ability to perform at very high SPLs.

Furthermore, it's ideal for recording lower frequencies and is easily operated thanks to an integrated preamp, XLR connector, and improved microphone capsule. Despite the incredibly high sound pressure inside a bass drum, this mic retains a superior audible attack and punch.

Bax Music Warranty This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

Shure Beta 91a Condenser Boundary Microphone for Kick Drum

Waarom wist ik dit niet eerder.... Jarenlang gepield met de juiste microfoon en de beste plek om hem te plaatsen voor mijn LP cajon. En toen hoorde ik van de Shure Beta 91a. Wat een geweldig handige mike. Gewoon in de cajon leggen en een mooi betrouwbaar en prima te versterken geluid.

Shure Beta 91a Condenser Boundary Microphone for Kick Drum

Ik heb deze microfoon gekocht om een kick te versterken en op te nemen.
Hoewel het prima kan, mist de microfoon wel ietsje laag als je hem als enige mic gebruikt.
De microfoon brengt vooral de attack goed naar voren.

Shure Beta 91a Condenser Boundary Microphone for Kick Drum

Nice mic! Ik gebruik deze voor m'n cajon en hij versterkt deze geweldig uit. Diep laag en sprankelend hoog. Makkelijk te positioneren en hij heeft een schakelaar voor snelle EQ. Ook wel eens voor kickdrums gebruikt... ik ben fan!

Shure Beta 91a Condenser Boundary Microphone for Kick Drum

Een pracht microfoon
Doet waarvoor hij ontworpen is
Namelijk geluiden omzetten naar elektrische signalen

Vind enkel dat de verpakking beetje herzien mag worden
De microfoon wordt geleverd met het bekende shure zakje
Echter wanneer men meerdere van zulke zakjes heeft is het een beetje zoeken naar welke microfoon waar verpakt zit
