All user reviews for the Shure SM58

Dynamic microphone for vocals, cardioid (polar diagram heart-shaped), a quip output transformer which provides a good level (mv / pa), o rjection of a pretty good feedback. Trs not end in the high, but hey, it's a microphone so scne rock'n roll above 10 kHz we do not care a bit. Recently sold a fairly reasonable price. Be careful to trs MODELS sold cheap, out of Mexican plants without CONTRL quality.

OVERALL OPINION

Utilisssrieusement 3 years, which is a micro default hypermarkets are known, a hump at around 240Hz and a voice duck if not size 3 to 3.5 kHz. trs not in the high end (compared sennheiser), especially over time, the bump in the lower medium can, however, some useful s'avrer voice a little slender at the bottom. Problem, y 'never two that sound the same! Strong enough, however, quickly becomes the grille dgeulasse (they rust). It is a good legends, but it may be time to change, not sound terrible most of the time. Prferer him if we take a B57A really have a micro amricain. Otherwise, the European are better (sennheiser, beyerdynamic)

Shure SM58

OVERALL OPINION

I use an SM58 on scne for 6 years.
Advantages:
great price quality ratio
good sound
pretty good attnuation of plosives
rjection of good feedback
good prsence

Cons:
does not return voice with perfect transparency
ct the "big sound" that is blowing in one of Shure's pubs, which is a little dtriment transparency and DEFINITIONS of ... fineness
for me the most regrattable parat: the effect of proximity as we approach the microphone, the bass becomes excessive and the sound loses a lot in the shade.

Overall impression: sre value, trs good micro (Obviously, do not compare a Neumann KMS 150, but the price is not the same!)

The SM58 is a dynamic vocal microphone cardioid directivity, the prdestin scne ...

One can find two versions of the microphone:
- Switched (rpt prconis in 'order to drink beers cushy ...)
- Without switch (better live to avoid errors in manipulation 'of singers)

OVERALL OPINION

This mic is a true legends in the Domaine sound particulirement live. It is a little dated, but it has not aged a bit ... We see it in many concerts and even sometimes stud '(MANU CHAO example but it is not the only one).

I'm going to throw stones but I think this microphone is not a lightning war in sound: the equalization will be carried out efficiently to get out a nice voice ... At the sound, I prfre a home SENNHEISER E855 is warmer ... BETA58 or, more natural. It even comes out when a finest signal that the majority of its competitors in the same price range!

on the other hand, from this same 855, what ease of use: Feedback, handling noise, ... are not absent but almost! Beginners on singers, who use a lot of plutt what this little trick in front of their mouth, I only give them the SM58, E835 plutt that will be uncompromising ...

In use, I prfre BETA58 is the best (although a trs is not "fashion" to say ...).

Everything has been said.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about two years now.

The two strong points to raise on this model are its robustness (do not fear the shock) and protection against feedback. Indeed, playing in a metal band, the noise level is quite high and he never fails, neither live nor repeated.

As for sound, it makes a very punchy sound which is very suitable for the metal. It does not, of course crystal clear sound for the song clear, but given the small side "bad" vote.

The price / quality ratio is excellent (currently ~ 155 CHF / ~ € 100), this choice I would do without hesitation!

Dynamic microphone for live voice

OVERALL OPINION

I bought six months ago because of his reputation and to sing live.
I am very disappointed I find it very stuffy and almost zero in the acute no details and password in addition it is very very average sensible.Comment this thing got such a reputation is a real mystery to me! probably for warmth in basses.je am passionate about her and I say good products but I found it!
I also tried registering and it's worse! (I expected because it is more suited for live: okay)
I know of to live is to avoid feedback but then to cut the treble to the point!
I have the old condenser microphones BST (ditto look at the Shure but better finished) that cost half that and are much better live without causing the feedback at any time.
For recording I bought two studio project B1 for almost the price of a shure and there so I am glad choice.The day and night.
For live I would have been well advised to try other mics in a nice store as I did for the studio project!
Not to be bought without a test this is what I can say now, there are many people who love this microphone that is why I do not write: to remove from office. Sorry but I agree that quelqun written on the product by adding a mixed review "I know I'm going to throw stones"

OVERALL OPINION

Hello,
Yes if it is actually not a Neuman ... it's still a microphone that I think owes its reputation to its universality. It is true that behind a console (good or average) it always happens at the level to get what you want. Now it is clear that micro "song" may not be suitable for all voices. It is not because a SM58 microphone as such a reputation that is necessarily done to everyone. I have been using a lot of years and I'm pretty happy, report it always makes me good service. In any case, the microphone that we must have in its fleet.

It is a dynamic cardio (not omni!).
The microphone is dynamic legends.
it is at the microphone singing is what the strato guitar rock (tj as the classic and essential)

OVERALL OPINION

Used for 1000 years!
solid.
beautiful (A model for all other copies)
insensitive to feedback, noise gate is alone! (Useful for home recording ...).
trs useful on some voices in home and not home (!) studio ...
Poper few times a little narrower than a sennheiser, need a good prampli ... but the sound!
and cash! ... (Better than a Sennheiser).
you can even make big boxes with (there are lots of albums that t is as a con and it is no more than dgraisser and qualiser mdiums in the "micro kick "!...).
one of the few microphones that can hold hands in stud to rock and rap (prfrer nanmoins an anti-pop it's safer).
short, we need a 58 tj at home ...

OVERALL OPINION

This micro-dynamic makes no worthy of the name!
No-one's prsence so deaf!
-The price is theft because it is justified by its highly reputable that is Galvaude!

One day where I installed the gear for musicians, I am testing to see if all was well and especially that it worked!
There was a sm58 and beta57a!
going to the sm58 beta57a, I thought not bad, the sound is much better, he breathes!
By contrast, I felt to find myself in a pice deaf, I felt of being sick!
Briefly, at t-bone there is much better now and much less CHRE!
To say that the sm58 is a REFERENCE for vocals, a quivaut that a marshall MG50 dfx REFERENCE is the sound of guitars!

Micro cardio for recovery of voice or instrument. This is a micro legends. it is now far exceed. I think it sounds very rough. I put 5 / 10 because it is a microphone that can be found everywhere on stage and takes on a possder to know how it sounds and how to sing it.

OVERALL OPINION

I've used for 6 months, thinking that there was no better for live in this price range, and then it was good to come up with a Shure SM 58 ...

Most: Micro found everywhere. there should be presets for the microphones to the equalizers. good rejection of feedback. Low handling noise. hyper strong.

The -: sounds rough. Severe lack of energy, gain in fact. Lack of clartaigue.

Must love the color of his ...

Poor value / quality prices. Try T.bone Mb85Beta 39 euros

I do not have that choice would do.

Unidirectional microphone for singing on scne.

OVERALL OPINION

At the sound, I have mixed feelings he has trouble accommodate any type of voice. It is very well to sing the hard rock with such (and therefore for singers who have chest!) As it supports the acoustic pressures and is very sensitive, but conversely, do not expect him to speak for lack of tone, sensitivity and openness. An AKG D-Emotion 880S, for example, would be more appropriate for this as more sensitive and that the sound spectrum s'tand best in bass and treble.

Impeccable standard for micro scne. His lack of tone, sensitivity and openness allows him not to do too much and Feedback, a, for scne is The priority ^ ^

I cleaned the bottom filter which is under the grill (it's a real vacuum cleaner filter ^ ^) and since then he has won a little treble ^ ^

In addition, it would well in hand and is heavy-duty ^ ^

I believe there is a version with ON / OFF switch.

* Micro.
* Singing
* Cardioid.

OVERALL OPINION

Two opinions here:
* For our singer, who has a small voice, this microphone is not exactly synonymous with performance, in fact, it very difficult restransmet feminine voice and the power of his deminue considerably safe. This leaves only the treble and the sudden appearance gives a loud voice ... So really Bad.

* So, I used to do the voices back to me and surprise, it seemed to be another microphone. The report was very good and gives my voice has a more Rock!

In short, I think this microphone is best suited to persons with a chest larger, especially for the singers of rock or metal!
