The legendary SM57 is an industry-standard, highly versatile cardioidPicks up most sound in front of the microphone and some from the sides. It is less susceptible to feedback in high volume environments. dynamic microphoneDynamic mics have a simple, rugged construction and can handle very high sound pressure levels.Read moreGo to the glossary tuned for the clean reproduction of amplified and acoustic instruments. The SM57 is ideal for sound reinforcement and recording applications.
- Contoured frequency responseThis is the range of frequencies, from the lowest to the highest, that a mic can pick up. for clean, instrumental reproduction and rich vocal pickup
- Professional-quality reproduction for drum, percussion, and instrument amplifier miking
- Uniform cardioidPicks up most sound in front of the microphone and some from the sides. It is less susceptible to feedback in high volume environments.Read moreGo to the glossary pickup pattern isolates the main sound source while reducing background noise
- Pneumatic shock-mount system cuts down handling noise
- Extremely durable under the heaviest use
- Frequency responseThis is the range of frequencies, from the lowest to the highest, that a mic can pick up.: 40 to 15,000 Hz
