More seriously, the sm57, like the sm58 are pure shit. People stick to them cause they are not expensive and because they see their 70’s band with it, and also the sound guy said it his good cause he read it in his school book.
The sm7b is a crappy mic too, it has no gain at all, you will be surprise is you try a real one if you haven’t tried one already . Yeah “Michael Jackson used it” … in his studio, even a 10 buck mic worked because of the rest.
Speaking about shure mics, the beta series is 10 times better and the ksm ones too, I have compared them for hours. But people stick to the same old shit because of the past.
With all the technology human can do, they stick with a sm57 you know
. Is like asking for a boss pedal in an axe fx, we are all fucked men.
