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.

    • Shure SM57 The Ultimate Mic in Value and Application
Style: SM57
I have been around SM57 for many years as a musician, and also as a sound person typically either with small groups, or in churches. Although the SM57 is touted as an "instrument" mic, and it is perfect for that use, it may also be used for vocals when some other mic is not available, or not working right. The SM57 also makes a fantastic mic for spoken word like with podcasts. For years i used this next to my PC as the input mic for online audio input of spoken voice. The upshot of this is that the Shure SM57 is an extremely versatile microphone and a fantastic value selling at roughly $99 (in beginning of 2024). This mic uses the Unidyne III capsule, which was an award winning advanced mic capsule design from the 1950's, and which appears in several of the most popular Shure microphones over the years including the SM57 and SM58. The SM57 was designed to be slim profile, extremely rugged, and to provide CARDIOID (heart shaped; this rejects side and rear sound quite well making feedback handling easier) pattern dynamic microphone use in a wide variety of applications. You will see this used on snare drums, on guitar cabinets, covering brass players and on lecterns (like at the White House which has hundreds of these mics along with the Shure windscreen). Part of the appeal of this mic is that it is not large, so it does not detract from the subject when doing video or filming of a person speaking into a microphone. I use this mic on spoken voice, trombone music performance, and on big band wind player parts (sax and brass). The output of the mic is not powerful but should work on most consoles with around 60db of channel gain. Output seems a bit better than the SM7B which is so popular with podcasters today. ... show more

    • still popular for a reason
Style: SM57
I’ve had my Shure SM57 for a while now, and I’ve got to say, this mic is like the Swiss Army knife of the audio world. It’s been through a lot with me—live gigs, studio sessions, and even some impromptu jam sessions in the garage. Honestly, if this mic could talk, I’m sure it would have some wild stories to tell. First off, the build quality is rock solid. I’ve dropped it, knocked it, and generally put it through its paces, and it just keeps on going. It feels like it’s made out of some indestructible alloy that laughs in the face of accidents. And the sound quality? Oh boy, it’s impressive. The SM57 captures instruments with such clarity and detail—it’s like it has a built-in magic filter that makes everything sound just right. It’s versatile too. Whether I’m miking up a snare drum or an electric guitar amp, the SM57 delivers every time. The dynamic range is fantastic, and it handles high volumes without distorting. It’s like having a reliable friend who always knows what to do, no matter the situation. One thing to keep in mind is that it’s not the fanciest mic out there, but for the price, it’s an absolute steal. It doesn’t need phantom power, which is a nice plus. If you’re looking for a mic that gets the job done without fuss, the SM57 is your go-to. In summary, the Shure SM57 is a classic for a reason. It’s tough, reliable, and always delivers top-notch sound. If you don’t have one in your collection yet, do yourself a favor and grab one—you won’t regret it! ... show more
