Shure AD2/B58 Digital Handheld Wireless Microphone Transmitter with Beta 58A Capsule, G57 470-616 MHz
The AD2/B58 comes equipped with a Beta 58A dynamic capsule designed for close-up vocals, with brightened midrange and bass roll-off to control proximity effect. The capsule features a supercardioid polar pattern that ensures high gain before feedback, maximum isolation from other sound sources, and minimum off-axis tone coloration

- Backlit LCD with easy-to-navigate menu/controls
- Low-profile, lockable power switch
- AA or SB900A lithium-ion rechargable batteries for convenient power options
- Audio Frequency Response: 50 - 16,000 Hz
- Optimized frequency response controls proximity effect and adds extra clarity to speech or vocals
- High-efficiency magnetic circuit using neodymimurion-boron magnet increases output, maximizes signal-to-noise ratio with any amplifier
- True supercardioid pattern remains uniform and symmetrical through out the vocal range to reduce feedback, off-axis coloration, and unwanted background noise
- Effective ball-type filter of extremely rugged construction reduces pop(explosive breath sounds) when used close to the mouth, and wind noise when used outdoors
