## Long description

The Shure BETA 87A is a professional studio microphone designed for live performance, broadcasting and studio recording. This wired electret condenser microphone features a supercardioid pickup pattern and a smooth, tailored frequency response (50–20000 Hz) that captures vocal detail while providing high isolation from ambient noise. It operates on phantom power and offers a rugged build suitable for touring and field production.
Advantages
The Beta 87A provides a smooth frequency response with a gradual presence rise to enhance upper midrange clarity, a controlled low-frequency roll-off that compensates for proximity effect, and a consistent supercardioid polar pattern for superior gain-before-feedback and isolation. It delivers a wide dynamic range (117 dB), low distortion, low susceptibility to RFI and electromagnetic hum, an advanced cartridge shock-mount to reduce handling noise, and a built-in pop filter to minimise wind and breath sounds.
Suitable for
 Live vocal performance on stage
 Studio vocal recording
 Broadcast and voice-over applications
 Touring and field production where rugged reliability is required

How to use
Connect the microphone to a mixer or preamplifier using a balanced XLR cable and ensure phantom power is supplied. Position the microphone with its grille pointing towards the vocalist and maintain an appropriate distance to avoid excessive proximity effect; use the low-frequency roll-off feature implicitly present in the microphone’s design. For live use, orient the microphone to take advantage of the supercardioid null points to minimise bleed from other sound sources. Handle the mic by the body to reduce handling noise and use the built-in pop filter to reduce plosives.
Usage recommendations
For best results in studio and live settings, use a high-quality mic preamp and balanced cable, enable phantom power before sending signal, and position the mic to exploit the supercardioid pattern for isolation. Regularly check mounting and shock-mount condition to maintain low handling noise.
