Introduction

Shure models BETA 53™and BETA 54™are subminiature, electret condenser head worn microphones. They provide

uncompromised 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 microphone features a durable, low-profile wire frame headband which is fully adjustable for

stability and comfort. A plastic carrying case protects the microphone and its accessories.

BETA 53 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

BETA 54 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

English

Using the Windscreens and Protective Caps

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.

Always use the BETA 54 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.
