The Shure SM57 unidirectional dynamic
microphone is exceptional for musical instrument pickup or for vocals.
With its bright, clean sound and carefully contoured presence rise, 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. For musical
instruments or vocals, the SM57 is a consistent choice of professional
performers. It is also the standard microphone used on the podium of
the U.S. President for over 30 years. Its outstanding performance,
legendary reliability, and diversity of application make this
"workhorse" the choice of performers, producers, and sound engineers
the world over.
