• The pickup pattern provides high gain-before-feedback and excellent rejection of unwanted noise.
• Its high maximum sound pressure level (SPL) enables it to handle the extreme demands of brass, woodwind and percussion instruments.
• The BETA 98H/C features a 3 m (10 ft.) high-flex cable with attached preamplifier (XLR connection)
• Tailored frequency response for open, natural sound reproduction
• Compact, lightweight construction provides a low degree of visibility
• Gooseneck, ratcheting swivel joint and gooseneck angle brace allow for optimum placement and fixed positioning
• Legendary Shure ruggedness and reliability
• Interchangeable replacement cartridges: RPM108 = Cardioid / RPM110 = Supercardioid

Details: DescriptionAmazon.comThe Beta 98H/C premium cardioid condenser instrument microphone that clamps onto the bell of wind instruments or onto the rim of percussion instruments, and its transformerless preamplifier circuitry improves linearity across the full frequency range. The pickup pattern of the BETA 98H/C provides high gain-before-feedback and excellent rejection of unwanted noise. Its high maximum sound pressure level (SPL) enables it to handle the extreme demands of brass, woodwind and percussion instruments.The clip-on Shure Beta 98H/C instrument microphone. The integrated gooseneck and ratcheting swivel joint allows the mic to be easily positioned and secured, and an isolation shock-mount reduces the transmission of instrument "key noise" and other mechanical noise. A gooseneck angle brace is included to provide better retention of the microphone placement during more active performances.Key FeaturesTransformerless preamplifier circuitry that improves linearity across the full frequency range.

Keep in mind that microphone technique is largely a matter of personal taste; there is no one "correct" microphone position. Saxophone Placement: Clamp the microphone onto the bell of the saxophone, so the microphone is a few inches from and facing into the bell. This will produce a bright tonal balance while minimizing feedback and leakage. Soprano Saxophone Placement: Clamp the microphone onto the bell of the saxophone and adjust the gooseneck so the microphone is facing the keys of the instrument, a few inches from the lower keys. This will produce a warm and full tonal balance. For a brighter tone, adjust the gooseneck so the microphone is facing into the bell, a few inches away. Trombone Placement: Clamp the microphone onto the bell of the trombone and adjust the gooseneck so the microphone is facing directly into the bell, a few inches away. This will produce a bright tonal balance while providing maximum isolation. Trumpet Placement: Clamp the microphone onto the bell of the trumpet and adjust the gooseneck so the microphone is facing directly into the bell, a few inches away. This will produce a bright tonal balance while providing maximum isolation. Drum Placement: Clamp the microphone onto the drum rim and adjust the gooseneck so the microphone is aiming a few inches above the drum head and an inch from the rim. This provides a full tonal balance.SpecificationsType: Condenser (electret bias) Polar Pattern: Unidirectional (cardioid) Frequency Response: 20 to 20,000 Hz Output Impedance: 1200 ohms Output Level (0 dB = 1 volt per Pascal): Open Circuit Voltage: -56.5 dB (1.5 mV) Output Clipping Level (at 1kHz, THD <1%): -9 dBV (0.35 V) Maximum SPL: 143.5 dB Dynamic Range: 112.5 dB Signal-to-noise Ratio: 63 dB at 94 dB SPL (IEC 651) Polarity: Positive pressure on microphone diaphragm produces positive voltage on pins 3 and 4 with respect to pin 1 (ground).
