Professional Supercardioid Condenser Vocal Microphone

The Shure Beta 87A is a professional-grade handheld condenser microphone designed for live vocals, broadcast, studio recording, houses of worship, touring productions, and corporate events. Known for its detailed clarity and smooth frequency response, the Beta 87A delivers studio-quality vocal reproduction in demanding live sound environments.

Detailed Vocal Clarity & Extended Response

The Beta 87A features a tailored condenser capsule that provides extended high-frequency response and precise vocal articulation. Its smooth presence boost enhances vocal intelligibility, making it ideal for lead singers, presenters, and spoken word applications where clarity and detail are essential in both live and broadcast mixes.

Supercardioid Isolation & Feedback Rejection

With a tight supercardioid polar pattern, the Beta 87A delivers excellent off-axis rejection, minimizing background noise and stage bleed. This focused pickup pattern improves gain-before-feedback, making it highly effective for loud stage environments, monitor-heavy setups, and professional live sound reinforcement.

Phantom Powered Professional Design

The Beta 87A operates on phantom power and is engineered with rugged Shure reliability for touring and installation use. Its built-in pneumatic shock mount reduces handling noise, while its durable grille and internal pop filter help control plosives and wind noise, ensuring consistent performance in live, broadcast, and recording applications.
