Alctron Microphone Beta 5

BETA5 Professional Gold Diaphragm Studio Condenser Microphone The Beta series of microphones from Alctron has a great appeal to musicians, engineers and producers who require a mic that has a musical sonic character with a wide dynamic range. It delivers an eloquent, well-focused, musical sound with reliability and consistency. Ideal for vocals and stringed acoustic instruments, it is also practical for a large range of sonic sources. Included is a hard case, shock-mount, windsock and a protective leather bag. 34mm Gold-Sputtered Diaphragm The large golden diaphragm provides accurate reproduction of even the subtlest sounds without sacrificing high-frequency performance. A gold sputtered diaphragm has a very thin layer of gold on its surface, which makes the surface a much better electrical conductor. The diaphragm remains very rigid, yet very agile in terms of being able to be quickly moved by small and/or sudden air movements (i.e. transients); and remains very efficient electrically, all of which are important for accuracy over a wide range of audio dynamics.
