Good allround mic
TOTAL
I've been using this mic in the studio 8 years. I do understand why SM57 considered industry standard for many applications. But the fact that theese are industry standard doesn't mean they are the best mics available. Its reputaion for being very reliable, fairly cheap and good for many situations made me choose SM57 for close micing of some of the drums and guitar amp when i started out and i don't regret it!.They do colour the sound a bit. I'm sure theese work good in live situations too.Very good starting point for recording snare drums, toms and guitar cabinets for the inexperienced user.
FEATURES
No features, no on/off switch. But then again there are few situations where i would need one.
SOUND
I've tried recording many diferent instruments with my SM7s mostly drums, guitar, bass and accordion with positive results. I find the sm57 in particular well suited for
Recording drums:
- Snare drums gives me a nice and dry sound reminding of the sound of queens of the stone age. I place the tip about 5 fingers above the rim and about 2 inches inwards from the rim. I direct the tip towards the center of the drum.
- Good with toms.
- Kick drum (beater side) for higher frequencies together with a mic picking up low frequencies better than sm57 on the front
Recording guitar speaker:
- I find it easy for any situation involving both clean and heavily distorted guitar sound. It adds some warmth and mellowness.
- The SM57 sounds good, but it does colour the sound. This is not a good or bad thing. The mid-low frequencies is more present in the signal and it lacks some hi frequencies. I get the best result when keeping this in mind when dialing the amp settings.
Bass guitar speaker:
- Good additional mic for the bass cabinet. Gives a clean sound.
-Lacks low frequencies needed for the bass guitar. I don't use it alot for bass guitar because i get better results with another mic(beta 52) combined with direct in when recording.

Need high gain and for the purposes I need it I rarely use it and prefer other types of mics.

Gör det den ska
Funkat bra på virvel och gitarrstärkare i kombination med stormembransmick.

Shure SM 57
En klassisk slitvarg som fångat många gitarriff genom åren. Funkar fint till sång och annat också. Prisvärd.

tried and true workhorse
For live sound, this one is the one you put on anything, and it'll sound more than OK. every live sound technician should have these available to them.

Bra mick!
Shure SM57 LC. Ja, vad ska man säga? Detta är en vapendragare som är svår att klara sig utan. Trots sitt pris är Shure SM57 mycket mångsidig. Den går att använda till det mesta och jag är mycket nöjd med den!

Mångsidig mikrofon som alltid är bra
Mycket mångsidig. Har använt till gitarrförstärkare, virvel, pukor, akustisk gitarr och antagligen mer genom åren. Den gör alltid sitt jobb, men det finns helt klart bättre mikrofoner rent ljudmässigt (men då till en annat pris...).
Har mestadels använt som virvelmikrofon vilket ger bra attack och ljud överlag, men ger samtidigt ett ganska stängt ljud som kan uppfattas som lite torrt och dött (men gör det ganska lättmixat).

Fungerar på det mesta!
Funkar på det mesta som låter. Har du inget annat så kommer det garanterat funka med en Shure SM57!
Precis som släktingen SM58 så finns det såklart mickar som låter mycket bättre men det går sällan fel med en 57:a!
Lång livslängd!

En klassiker
Finns det någon anledning att välja något annat om man ska micka en gitarrförstärkare? Perfekt ljudåtergivning och riktad verkan som gör att det inte ramlar med en massa sidoljud.
