All user reviews of 4/5 for the Shure SM58

Versatile cardioid dynamic vocal microphone.

OVERALL OPINION

I i used for a few years before moving knew a higher beta 58 model which I think is a bit thinner and less deaf
Otherwise it is a very good good solid microphone.
I tried other models as a Sennheiser E845 and TT1 prodipe and MC1

The SM58 is the best for me after beta 58 ....

Vocal microphone, but can be used as his brother the SM57 in sound amp.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since purchase, and always at the top!

I have several types of micro, but there is always room for the SM58 is a standard, it goes everywhere, against, it does not give effect to the voice, it will be rough, but after at arrange or after taken either with a pre amp

Personally, I use it in rehearsal, or live, it suits me.

Value for money, I would say bah (new) it's worth € 100!
In general, we always have an SM58 for vocals, and a SM57 for amp or even snare!

With experience, yes I would do it (already done!)

Singing with microphone (sm58s) or without switch (SM58) used by a lot of bands and singers. Rather directional, it does not take too much of his side which is useful.
But better to sing in front!
The Beta version is more expensive, with more output and especially a wider band.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for years, and in this price range (€ 110/120), it is in your head but of course there are better and more expensive.
I tried micro realistic years 80/90, cheaper more loyal and powerful but are found more, unfortunately! I think the brand has stopped.
Beware of fakes! on the internet there are nicks shures SM58 50 €, but fakes! they are very light! a first try.

Microphone type:

Cardioid dynamic vocal microphone, rather dedicated to the scene.

Everything has been said over the decades on the microphone, however, I was invited to give an opinion.
To be used as a singer and sound engineer, I know the two sides of its use.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
Two decades.

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
A bit of everything for 2 decades.




For a singer, it is a landmark, see a standard master. Indeed, it might not be the most accurate, or one that sounds in all circumstances, but it is undoubtedly that everyone know, that everyone know how to manage its proximity effect. It is a micro should not hesitate to attack to draw something, play with his chart and its effect prox depending on what you want to obtain. The hardest part with him is to figure out how to get a decent level of output without harming unintelligibility, and it is primarily the work of singer ...

At the console. I do not see what good can blame him. This is a pro tool, which is good in some circumstances, and if it is well controlled by the artist who uses only rarely pose problems. It has a big resistance to feedback, so can play with a high level of return (although not recommended, but everyone will want it well). I usually cut down to well back in the mix and not have an unpleasant effect Loudness will go eat on flowerbeds other instruments placed lower in the spectrum.

Studio, provide very good preamp to get something, and preference for a particular purpose, if not a tool to prefer more comfortable in this area.

According to the seller it is a micro stage, it is for her that I buy are.

Its versatility allows me to use in my recording studio (home), as well as on stage.

It utlise mainly for voice, but picks up ambient sounds great.

XLR connection.

OVERALL OPINION

I used a microphone array ba to sing before I finally thought I could not sing.

In fact, the mic does not accurately reproduisais my voice.
3I am falling one day before this scene Shure microphone and trying it at a friend I finally realized that I was not so bad.

So I finally bought and without regret, the quality is very reasonable compared to its ability to reproduce as faithfully as the sound of the voice.

I use this mic since mid-2011 and it has never disappointed. I SM58SE version, which is the same as the SM58LCE with a start / stop.
