## Description

The Shure BETA 57A is a high output supercardioid dynamic microphone designed for professional sound reinforcement and project studio recording. It maintains a true supercardioid pattern throughout its frequency range. This insures high gain-before-feedback, maximum isolation from other sound sources, and minimum off–axis tone coloration. Excellent for acoustic and electric instruments as well as for vocals, the extremely versatile BETA 57A dynamic microphone provides optimal warmth and presence. Typical applications include drums, guitar amplifiers, brass, woodwinds and vocals.

Review: All-Around Awesome Mic - I bought this mic for it's reputation as a workhorse both in the studio and in a live gig setting. So far I've put it through some use in both contexts and it's performed wonderfully. In a live application, I've used it as a vocal mic- there seems to be some debate over whether this or the Beta 58 is a better choice for live vocals, and I'd say that having heard both used onstage, I like the 57A because it cuts through the muddiness of most small venues a lot better. If you're playing a killer sounding room like, I don't know... the Ryman, it likely won't matter, but in the brewery barroom that resembled a really crowded hallway that we played the other night it made all the difference in the world over even an SM58- it was nice to hear myself sounding more like myself in the monitor. I've also noticed a few musicians that I respect a lot using it, and even Obama had one in his hand the other night while giving a speech. In my home studio, I've used the 57A to mic a snare (sounds killer, tons of snap and body), acoustic guitar (not bad at all, although I prefer an SDC mic here), and a guitar cabinet (sounds great.) Overall, I don't think you can go wrong with this mic. I'd like to add a Beta 58 to the collection as well, but after a lot of research I think the 57A is the most versatile of the two so if you're on a limited budget as most musicians are, I'd go with this. You won't be disappointed, and I'd be surprised if I find a dynamic mic that replaces it in my every-day, go-to gear case anytime soon.
Review: Shure Beta52 - Great Shure quality as always.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this really a triple pack?**
A: Amazon ripped me off. Paid for a triple pak listed in the ad, and only got one mic... obviously they still haven't fixed it.. they brushed it off, blamed the supplier and refused to deliver the product paid for... terrible experience... yes it says triple-pak, but it is most definatley not... shame on amazon for passing the buck and not taking responsibilty and/or appropriate action/service response to their own admitted error... All their billions, and they can't honor an ad They Listed and instead blame the supplier...?   Poor... I'd think twice about ordering

**Q: I'm shopping for an aspiring singer-drummer and I already purchased this, but is there anything else I need for him to get started?**
A: A mic cable and a mic stand would be something they'd need. Unless they have them already.

**Q: Does this mic need a interface? Like the Scarlett 2i2?**
A: This mic is for live sound or studio. If you want to run directly into a computer, then yes you would need an interface. There are other mics that are already set up for this with usb connection. Send an email to hmtmail@hmtrad.com with your inquiry. Thanks, David

**Q: My instrument condenser mic requires that phantom power be on, and when it's on, both channels have 48v. Will phantom adversely affect this mic?**
A: The phantom power is necessary to drive the preamp in your condenser. Your Beta 57 has no preamp, so there is no effect... and no harm. Being able to turn the phantom power off, with the switch, allows you to plug in your condenser without getting that loud pop from your speakers. Just plug in any mic or instrument that has a preamp, before switching on the phantom power.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shure Beta52
*by R***E on October 27, 2025*

Great Shure quality as always.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than the SM 58 for my female voice
*by C***L on December 13, 2025*

I get less feedback with this BETA 57 mic. It’s very clear and for a female like myself it gives me a little more bass & less feedback. Use it for all my pro gigs.
