Beta 27 Instrument Microphone |
|
|

Product Code: Beta 27 Instrument Microphone |
The Beta 27 side-address
condenser microphone is precision engineered for professional
sound reinforcement and project studio recording applications.
Its flat frequency response and low self-noise provide unerring
performance in demanding environments. A tight supercardioid
pattern ensures high gain-before-feedback and maximum isolation
from other sound sources.

|
Features |
- Supercardioid polar pattern specifically
targets the sound source consistently with greatly minimized bleed from
off-axis sound sources
- Tailored for superior transient response
from a low-mass, 1” externally-biased, ultra-thin 24 Karat gold-layered
Mylar® diaphragm
- Flat, neutral frequency response for
natural reproduction on stage or in the studio
- 3-position switchable low-frequency
filter helps reduce unwanted background noise or counteract proximity effect
for consistent, extended lowend
- -15 dB switchable attenuator handles
extremely high SPLs with ease
- Premium electronic components and
gold-plated internal and external connectors
- Internal pop filter with three separate
mesh layers reduces wind and breath noise.

1000 Ohm load: 2.0 dBV
2500 Ohm load: 8.5 dBV
THD of microphone preamplifier when applied input signal is equivalent to
cartridge output at specified SPL
- Self Noise (typical, equivalent SPL, A-weighted): 8.5 dB
- Polarity: Positive pressure on diaphragm produces positive voltage on pin 2
with respect to pin 3
