Shure SM58 Pro XLR Dynamic Microphone Stage Performance Kit with 15-Foot XLR-XLR Cable, Stand, A25D Clip and Bag - Professional Studio & Live Performance Cardioid Mic for Vocals (SM58-CN BTS)

A little background; I am a hobbyist singer. I do not do any professional singing. However, I have been singing as a hobby for 7 years now. So I am quite aware of how my voice should sound like. In addition, I spend a lot of my professional work life in meetings and calls. So a good microphone is beneficial to my work. I was originally using a yeti snowball for many years prior to purchasing the SM58. The reason why I swapped was because sometimes in voice calls background noise would pick up (even with a noise gate or sound remover). Condenser microphones in general are very sensitive to sound. I decided to purchase the SM58 because it was the most popular dynamic microphone I could find. Dynamic microphones have a more concentrated pick up pattern, meaning you have to speak directly into it for sound to be picked up. So naturally all my background noise issues in meetings were solved. The microphone itself is extremely sturdy. I can see it lasting for many years. Important to note; this is a DYNAMIC microphone. As previously mentioned, it does a great job at filtering out the background noise. But as a consequence, it also does a great job at removing vocal details. Compared to my old condenser microphones, the tones were not as clear. Especially with my higher and lower most notes. This is because dynamic microphones like this one cuts off at certain sound frequencies. But this is the pay off for having sound reduction from your environment. You will have this issue with all dynamic microphones. If vocal clarity is important for your recording projects, please obtain a condenser microphone instead. I reccomend the RODE NT1 or the NT1A if you want a brighter sound. I recently got the NT1 and the amount of warmth and depth it captures in my voice is *chefs kiss*. Don't forget to record with some sound proofing. I record in a closet. If you are singing live, that is a different story. Please stick to the dynamic microphone for live performances. That being said, you can still record songs or covers with a dynamic microphone, but for me personally, I know how I sound. I did not like how muddy this made my singing. So I no longer use it for recording vocals. I only use it in meetings/calls/live karaoke. This microphone is not a USB microphone and will require require an interface to set it up. Good news, if you ever get a new xlr microphone you can keep using the same interface. Most starters get the Scarlett, but I opted for the stienburg ur12. (Scarlett was sold out) I think the stienburg works lovely. Also because the sm58 is a dynamic microphone, the sound reduction also means it is very quiet. You will need a cloud lifter or some sort of Amp to boost your voice. The gain on the interface is not enough. TL;DR - Very solid microphone. - Good for everyday use/ Meetings/ Calls/ Live singing or performing - OK for vocal recordings (condenser microphones is better) - Needs an interface and preamp

The model is been around for so long. Always been reliable to me in quality of sound.

Excellent

The price is cheaper if you were to purchase it with the XLR cable. Therefore, It is recommended that you buy it with cable because if you just purchase the mic itself without the XLR cable package, it will be very much more expensive. Inside the box, there is a mic case, a mic head where you can screw onto the mic tripod. It came with a japanese tax invoice.
