The legendary Shure SM57 microphone
is exceptional for musical instrument pickup and vocals. With
its bright, clean sound and contoured frequency response, the
SM57 is ideal for live sound reinforcement and recording. It has
an extremely effective cardioid pickup pattern which isolates
the main sound source while minimizing background noise. In the
studio, it is excellent for recording drums, guitar, and
woodwinds.
The SM57’s outstanding performance, legendary reliability, and
diversity of application make this "workhorse" the choice of
performers, producers, and sound engineers worldwide.
