Description

A snare crack. An arpeggiated chord. A powerful saxophone solo. Whether on stage or in the studio, the notes that flow from your instrument connects your audience on a visceral level. And such sounds need a mic that can handle its strength. For every acoustic condition, the SM57 delivers the power of your playing to every fan in the house. What is the SM57 best suited to? It’s the most popular choice for a professional musician who wants to mic up their amplified or acoustic instrument such as a guitar amp or bass amp, saxophone, trumpet or drums. It is used on stages and in studios around the world. How does it sound? The contoured frequency response with its presence rise, helps the instrument cut better through the main mix. The extremely effective cardioid pickup pattern isolates the main sound source and will simply record what you point at it while rejecting sound from the rear.

Can’t go wrong with it for snare. It is a industry standard, every studio in the world have at least one unit 🤣, if it doesn’t sound good, it is not the mic, it is you 😜

  • Great microphone
Style: SM57
The best bang-for-your-buck, versatile microphone you can use to get started. I have used it for guitar amps, acoustic guitar, drums, and occasionally vocals. The sound is professional and the design is robust.

  • One of the Best Microphones Money Can Buy!
Style: SM57
Anything I say would probably fall short of how great this microphone is and how reasonably priced it is for small churches with smaller budgets. We have this on drums, amplifiers, and use it for training vocalists. Such a reliable and excellent microphone.

  • Perfect for specific applications.
Style: SM57
I've used the Shure SM58 for 35-years now, and wanted to try this mic out just for the hell of it. Here's my take. For recording or amplifying instruments, this is a real work horse and ideal for the job. Its reliable and tough as nails. It's can also be good for vocals when used at high volumes with a loud band. But for primarily vocal use, I would definitely suggest the SM58 (the one with the "On/Off" switch to instantly stop any annoying feedback issues). The incredible sound of the 58 for amplifying the human voice simply cannot be beat, and I've tried them all, even mics five times the price. So my suggestion is, the SM57 for miking instruments, the SM58 for vocals. ... show more
