Windscreens
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.
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
Always use the BETA54 with the
standard protective cap only.
Using the microphone with no cap,
or with the filtered cap, will de-
grade sound quality and alter the
microphone's polar pattern.
