The Shure SM57 is a legendary microphone that's perfect for musical instrument pickup and vocals thanks to a contoured frequency response that delivers a bright, clean sound.
Whether you need a microphone that's capable of sound reinforcement or recording, the SM57 utilises a cardioid pickup pattern that is extremely effective in its ability to isolate the main sound source while minimising background noise. For studio use, the Shure SM57 is suited to recording drums, guitar and woodwinds. Thanks to outstanding performance, proven reliability (thanks to rugged build quality) and an incredibly diverse range of applications that the SM57 can be used for, this is the microphone of choice for performers, producers and sound engineers.
The Shure SM57 is often referred to as a "workhorse" and with good reason, it's one of the most popular choices from professional musicians who need to mic up their instrument, whether amplified or acoustic, on stage or in the studio. The contoured frequency response helps instruments cut through in the main mix thanks to the presence rise and the cardioid pick up pattern is great at rejecting sound from the rear - ensuring you capture the source that you point the mic at!
