Micro vocals / guitar amps transplanted

OVERALL OPINION

A micro everything from classic in a set, to have if you want no shit. It's solid, it's cheap (100 € for equipment used professionally, it's not every day), it does the job.
It's OK not the best, and notices say it well, but it's still one that all sounds familiar ingestion and resolve fastoche know.
This is one of its great strengths and already just for that, must at least have tried.
I used plugged into multiple consoles, through effects and multi-effects voice, it still holds the road.
This is not a Rolls, it's not a tank, it's not an F1 car, but it's a good big jeep families: it goes almost everywhere.
That is: no surprises when you know, that's a lot when we should focus on other things (the music)

Micro Dynamics

Versatile enough for a hand vote.

Technology Exceeds from competition

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 10 years

I tried many other models from other manufacturers

What I like most: The micro reassures the client of its reputable

What I like least in the song: A spectrum evil rponse refund the curve, its proximity effect too pronounced. Feedback Resistors to its low, its lack of precision, its lack of clarity of the low return of the high mid and treble its price ...


It can dpanner for some instruments but it is highly adconseiller for singers (EUSES). Today almost all other brands are better (Sennheiser, Beyer, AKG, Tbone, etc ...) and often for less.

The report quality price is not terrible, it continues to sell expensive because of its reputable dating of the 60's when it's low end.


I do Achteras probably by far the most prfrant Sennheiser E840, E835 and AKG D5.

7 / 10 because of its price so that you can find cheaper and as well
cardioid dynamic microphone.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it on stage for a longer than two years and I am bought a year ago and a half.
I tried the worst shit that exist and it is true that through a 58 sm, we see the difference.
micro very robust, but what good because a microphone is not doing to be thrown to the ground. one can shout it, want it the way I sang in the rain with, he never do wrong right. we must have a microphone in his set of micro but do not be blinded by the legend of 58 sm, other products are also good for 3 x cheaper such as the prodipe tt1 I use for six months and put my 58 sm in hibernation since.
That said, there is a very good vocal mic that I recommend to everyone.

Micro singing only other tests that I have passed never shown conclusive, it's the porridge in general it is shit for nothing much to look at the sm57 that did it for (and very very good)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it always, ie at least since 15 years.
Currently I have 4 on hand, including my first copy, which must be at least 20 years old and still works like new (to give you an idea, there is no paint at all the body due to wear)

It is a micro in which I screamed, spitting, rapping in the rain, sweltering in the sun, etc. in the cold night, never had any trouble.
A great value for most of the singers, the howler postilloneur eat the micro rapper who locks him in his hand, to the singer thin voice.

He has obviously its limitations, we will say that it is a micro ultra-close, my it's still the most successful of shure, with a quality / price staggering.

THE universal micro C'e'st
It covers a wide band frequency drives, from grave to acute and a trs warm in his home studio
It almost indestructible rsistera to liters of beer and tons of baboons who wallow top

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 10 years in concert for the voice or the guitar amplifiers for home and studio.
What is the best with what micro is that there are never any surprises: it can not be of virtually.
No microphone on the market has such solidity such versatility at a price so low (less than 150 euros).
Tip: if you enregisterz a guitar you can remove the cap to approximate the sound of the SM57

For résumé if you're wondering what to buy first micro, take the one without hsiter

Dynamic omni-directional I think.

Frankly, a good microphone, super tough, REFERENCE ...
But the sound of certain voices is spcial and the grain is not the most Capt. honntes.

I find that the condition of references, it's like for NS10M.
Not always justified ...

OVERALL OPINION

6 years that I have. Concert / homestudio / etc ...

Twisted Grille several times (I also know the scope of the indoor screwdriver to straighten!) And always VLOC.

I modremment the grain when it is coupled to a single console, and there is not a good prampli to warm the sound. Problem disappeared since I have a wonderful and VLZ mackie1402 pramplis ...

Microphone for voice (REFERENCE)
Technology cardioid

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 ½ years.
Its more: robust, trs good return of live voice, larsers Reduces Risk for taking an acoustic guitar for example.
Its least: can versatile has not used a guitar amp to use, it is better to choose the SM57 a.
I know many microphones and it is true that the SM58 is particulirement good. But beware: this dpend voice because even if the SM58 allows good decision by a majority of votes, some soneront better with Sennheiser for example, while dpend stamp.
The report quality-price is right.
With the exprience, I would do without this choice because it allows the hsitation trs good return for virtually all the voices!

Dynamic mic singing
Cardioid
Prdilection field: the scne

OVERALL OPINION

I for two years. I had the opportunity to use previously seen that team a lot of studios and rptition scne. I also chant Sennheiser E845 and E855. Group / scne of the voice is much more intelligible than the Sennheiser. It means a better and less feedback.
on the other hand, for the home studio, the shure sounds less "Fidler" that sennheisers.
Trs is solid ... it may fall on the tile, no problem (for cons after a moment the hull pod).
All technicians are familiar with this mic, very soon galre ...
The report is qualitprix is ​​the standard tool scne.

The SM58 is essentially a microphone for singing scne.
It's a dynamic mic cardiodide.
To my knowledge, references.
I have not had the opportunity to compare the top range of microphones. But a lot below 150 euros. And it comes out first every time, whether on rponse frequency drives, rendering progressiv dynamics and dynamic depending on shooting distance.
Especially it is to be rput road. "See below.
I have used for the sound of instuments home. That is correct. No more.

OVERALL OPINION

I got mine for 5 years and it runs on scne with me for 4 1 / 2 years. Never any trouble with. Yet it took shovels (high Paske I am tall and my pole is always high). I have several times rectified the grid (with a screwdriver handle the indoor, if so!)
It still works impeccable.
In short, pay nine 800 F, no complaints at all!

Think clean or change from time to time Bonette foam is in the grid: it picks up a pack of crap when you turn a lot!
Tip: Soft tissue on the tip end of a vacuum cleaner and suck the foam out of the grid (the fabric prevents the suction of the mouth) The microphone is regaining clarity.

For the scene for a singer in all styles (up to mediums and highs of 2 kb and down low like and you have a hallucinatory quality)

For the home studio, the microphone have to start if you can not have a good static .. A beautiful album and distributors around the world does not recorded with this mic in a room (The Headphone Masterpiece) http://www.mcm.net/chroniques/index.php/37014/

To say that this mic is indemmodable 30 years and is not crazy!!

If you take another, because you want to spend the cot must, but it is a vision of the mind!

OVERALL OPINION

Use often on stage, a little home studio (but I prefer my C1) it takes a lot of vocal nuances and its interest is primarily the
There is obviously the bump Shure, but I like it because it corresponds to the sounds of today

It's really a micro dedi vocals, much less to transplant a scratch amp electric. (Prefried the sm 57)

I am willing to pay more but for a wireless microphone and a superior quality, if not! But it gets into the mind-blowing budgets

Do not hsiter

Microphone for singing even if most of the instruments can be transplanted with (but you must remove the grill if the effect of proximity makes the sound too dull). Is the most cardio unidirectional clebre, we meets all the scenes (even if the beta 58A happens more and more) for 20 years. Least in the studio except for backvocals.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 year for some scnes and especially to record in my home studio. Ds I used the sm58 BINGO! c'tait exactly my voice coming out of the monitors. APRS is good on the need to cut a little low and climb high mdium because it is a little dark but a plug for anything just then! A micro trsrsistant Fidler and therefore quite well.

This is THE choice that we do not really know when not too many As and when we make lives without ...
(Because if it's for the studio There's more to the same price, it's a grandpa when the same micro)

Good microphone, making it lived 35 years and it is always there is always heard
True, he begins to be exceeded by the Beta 58 and Beta 87 (condenser)
But it remains in our mind as the legendary micro ... It remains in our hands, too, is a pleasure to sing with.

OVERALL OPINION

Very good microphone, I use it recently for rehearsals in a small piece (15 to 20 m2)
and must say I am impressed, the feedback loop are almost non-existent ... The sound is really good
And while I plug in a bass amp 50 watts, the sound is very clear and pleasant ... I expect to see that he gives on stage, but for now I am impressed, just a flat for transplant instruments ... even on 500 watts, my folk guitar does not really feel ...
But it will be good for the song is crazy !!!!!!!!!
