General

With the Shure Beta 98AC condenser microphone you can make excellent audio recordings with a wide range of instruments. This microphone is perfect for loud instruments like toms, snares and cymbals. Piano, wind instruments and strings can be excellently picked up by this cardioid microphone. The low tones are well picked up and a good amplification is the result. Crossover-distortion also isn't a problem with this model. You can use this microphone on stage and in the studio.
