Introduction

Shure models BETA 53 and BETA 54 are subminiature, electret condenser headworn 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 du-

rable, low-profile wire frame headband which is fully adjustable for stability and comfort. A plastic car-

rying case protects the microphone and its accessories.

Adjusting the Headband and Microphone

①Adjust headband width

②Adjust boom height

③Adjust boom length

④Do not attempt to bend the microphone boom!

⑤“Roll” the boom for subtle adjustments of microphone position

4Using the Windscreens and Protective Caps

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

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.

Important: 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 micro-

phone’s polar pattern.

Positioning the Microphone

BETA 53

• Position the omnidirectional

BETA 53 microphone near the

corner of the mouth

• If necessary, roll the boom to

avoid contact with skin and

facial hair

BETA 54

• Point the directional BETA

54 microphone at the

corner of the mouth

6Wearing the Microphone on Either Side
