BETA53 BETA54

Headworn Vocal Microphones

General Description

Shure models BETA53 and BETA54 are subminiature, electret condenser headworn microphones. They provide uncompro

mised sound quality and reliability with minimal visibility in applications such as broadcast, theater, and touring. Despite their

small size, each microphone’s condenser element delivers full, clear, and natural reproduction of speech and vocals. The mi

crophone features a durable, lowprofile wire frame headband which is fully adjustable for stability and comfort. A plastic carry

ing case protects the microphone and its accessories.

BETA53 Features

Omnidirectional polar pattern for minimal handling noise and flexible microphone placement

Extended, flat frequency response provides accurate speech and vocal reproduction

Two interchangeable protective caps for response shaping

Foam windscreens minimize breath noise and “popping”

Available with an in-line preamp or with a TA4F connector for wireless applications

Choice of black or tan finish to suit your performance environment

BETA54 Features

Supercardioid polar pattern provides maximum gain-before-feedback and ambient rejection

Extended frequency response tailored for vocal performances

Able to handle extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL)

Snap-fit foam windscreens stay in place during intensive movement

Available with an in-line preamp or with a TA4F connector for wireless applications

Choice of black or tan finish to suit your performance environment

Windscreens

Care and Maintenance

Foam windscreens may be cleaned with soap and water.

For the best sound quality, replace damaged or clogged protective caps and windscreens.

Windscreen

Grip the internal frame of the windscreen firmly when connecting or removing. Do not pull on the foam itself.

To connect, push the windscreen until it snaps into place over the cartridge.

To remove, pull the windscreen directly off of the cartridge.

Protective Caps

Standard protective cap:

Gold mesh

No attenuation

Filtered protective cap:

Silver mesh

Attenuates high frequencies

Always use the BETA54 with the standard protective cap only. Using the microphone with no cap, or with the filtered cap, will

degrade sound quality and alter the microphone's polar pattern.

Positioning the Microphone

BETA53/54

Position the omnidirectional BETA53 or directional BETA54 microphone near the corner of the mouth

If necessary, roll the boom to avoid contact with skin and facial hair
