Shure Beta 98A/C Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Whether you're miking drums, wind instruments, pianos, or anything that requires placement in a tight spot, you'll love Shure's Beta 98A/C mini condenser microphone. Its diminuitive size makes the Beta 98A/C perfect for situations in which a full-sized mic just won't fit - but, this mini mic doesn't compromise on impressive, accurate sound. Its cardioid pickup pattern helps keep unwanted outside sounds at bay, while the included shockmount swivel adapter makes it easy to mount the Beta 98A/C to a standard microphone stand.
