General

Certain situations really require a bidirectional microphone. Let’s say you need to record two toms by placing a microphone in between; in cases like this, and many others besides, the Shure Beta 181BI condenser microphone is a great solution. With this microphone, you will be able to record loud instruments without any problems, as it can take a very high SPL. The microphone is also durably constructed and can take a hit.
