SM58 LC : Great microphone, excellent sound

4 years ago

Aside from the obvious fact that this microphone is one of the lowest outputting mics out there (which you can gather from many reviews online) everything about this exceeded expectations.

Pros:

- Built like a tank

- Very good for noisy rooms, as 90% of the sound it picks up is from 0-50 cm in front of it

- Warm sounding, but you can manage that depending on how far from it you're speaking/singing

Cons:

- Will need some sort of a preamp or post production if it's not loud enough for you, it's really quiet unless you put the sound source right on top of the microphone's head while recording. I personally don't mind it, but it's more quiet than I expected initially
