Description
The Shure Beta 52A Kick Drum Microphone provides low-frequency bass punch and SPL handling. It includes a dynamic locking stand adapter for easy setup, a steel mesh grille for durability, a shock mount for sound isolation, and a neodymium magnet for high signal-to-noise ratio. Therefore, it delivers reliable, high-quality results whether close-miking a kick drum or a bass amp.
The frequency response is shaped specifically for kick drums and bass instruments. Additionally, a built-in dynamic locking stand adapter, with an integral XLR connector, simplifies setup, especially inside a kick drum where space is tight. As a result, engineers can position the mic quickly without fighting awkward mounting hardware.

Built for High-SPL, Low-End Precision
The supercardioid pattern gives high gain before feedback, alongside superior rejection of unwanted noise. Therefore, the Beta 52A stays clean and focused even in loud, busy stage environments. Additionally, the hardened steel mesh grille resists wear and abuse, holding up to the demands of regular touring and rehearsal use.
An advanced pneumatic shock mount system minimises the transmission of mechanical noise and vibration, keeping the signal clean even when the kick drum is being hit hard. Combined with a neodymium magnet for high signal-to-noise ratio output, the Beta 52A delivers studio-quality performance night after night, wherever low-end punch and reliability matter most.
