Description
Shure SM58 Cardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone: If you’ve ever heard someone sing or speak into a live microphone, there’s an excellent chance it was an SM58. Rock stars. Pop idols. Comedians. Presidents. Popes. Immortal words have passed through its iconic grille for generations. And with engineering and durability that set the world standard, it’s sure to keep turning up at legendary performances.
- Frequency response tailored for vocals, with brightened midrange and bass rolloff to control proximity effect
- Effective built-in spherical wind and pop filter. Frequency response: 50 to 15,000 Hz
- Pneumatic shock-mount system cuts down handling noise.
- Uniform cardioid pickup pattern isolates the main sound source and minimizes background noise
Breakfast Puppies Notes: We regularly use a mix of both these mics and the Behringer Xm8500 mics both in our studio and on the road. They’re both solid workhorse vocal microphones, and virtually indistinguishable in standard mixed-down podcast recordings.
