The Beta 98AMP/C instrument microphone combines an integrated preamplifier with a miniature condenser capsule to provide a smooth response for percussion. It features a flexible gooseneck and the A75M microphone mount for secure placement in many configurations.
The Beta 98AMP/C is a cardioid condenser instrument microphone and comes complete with an integrated preamplifier and the A75M universal drum mount. None of the other versions of the Beta 98 contain an integrated preamplifier. The Beta 98AMP/C has a wider dynamic range with a SPL level 7dB higher than Beta 98AD/C and the Beta 98A/C. This premium drum microphone is ideal for use with snares and toms.
