good price great mic
If you know the sure 57's then you know the timeless quality of this mic for snare and guitar cab micking. Good price
Best value in the industry. Great for more serious podcasters.
I am a podcaster, and purchased one of these used for $60. What a steal! I also spend over $300 on a good quality
Shure
KSM27, and I feel I should have just saved my money and stuck with the
SM57
.
If you're into podcasting, but want to step up to interviewing others with multiple mics, I highly suggest you buy a few of these, or the SM58 model, to add as additional mics to a small mixer board. They are just so versatile, and sound through so clear. If you want to add some more bass to your voice, you just move in closer (make sure you have a pop filter). They don't require phantom power (phantom power does not equal a better mic).
Really, to get the benefits of the better large-diaphram condensers, you need to spend lots of cash on a good mic preamp. The Shure SM57 will get you the most out of your basic mic preamp, and give you the best sound for the money. I highly recommend it for the podcaster like me, and don't blow your money on higher-priced condensers or cheap condensers that sound muddy and just pick up more room noise, anyway. The higher-priced condensers are great mics, but really need a lot of money spent on other equipment (and room treatment) to be useful. The Shure SM57 does a very good job of recording what's in front of it without all of the proximity effect. It really is a great value.
If you want to get into serious podcasting interviews with multiple mics, get this or the SM58.
Highly recommended!

Great for vocals or instruments!
People will try to tell you that the sm58 is a better vocal mic, it's not true. The sm58 is designed to enhance only the sounds that fall within a certain range (the vocal range as decided by
shure
). This mic accurately portrays both vocals, miked instruments, acoustic instruments, and even some drums. I say some because we haven't tried the bass drum, might work for that as well, or might be too much, I don't know. Regardless, for a versatile mic that will last you as long as you need it to, buy the
sm57
.
good of course
What else is there to say other than legendary? It is sturdy, but does not get as good of a sound as I expected. Maybe, it was too hyped up by everyone. I often use it for vocals during practice. When it comes to recording, I found my MXL condenser sounds warmer and more full.
