Efficiency and versatility turned into micro! The SM57 forms, with the SM58, the best known pair of dynamic microphones. Its optimized frequency response and its extremely efficient cardioid directivity are ideal for picking up brass instruments, winds, amps, batteries ... among many others! Robust and resistant to the most difficult conditions on stage, it fully provides sound reinforcement and recording of various sound sources.
The presidential microphone, please! Beyond its musical performances, the SM57 has forged an international reputation thanks to its use during speeches by the presidents of the United States, and this since 1965. Because it is indeed a couple of SM57, with two windshields, which have overlooked the desks of American presidents for several decades. The robustness of its directive SM capsule provides clear and precise voice pickup in all conditions. From Lyndon B. Johnson to the current president, all speeches were broadcast using this microphone. A reference.
Indispensable, to say the least! Its easily identifiable design can be seen on all stages around the world. If you see a copper section, the SM57 will never be far away. An amplifier picked up by a microphone? You will surely see it. A zoom on the battery? It will be near the snare drum or the toms. This microphone is a real asset for musicians. It is used for so many things, in so many situations, that it just became indispensable.
