Shure SM57 Dynamic Mic Review / Test HD

It also does an excellent job at background noise rejection. 00:00 - Intro / Price 00:21 - Setup / Disclaimers 00:32 - What’s in the Box 00:50 - Build Quality 01:16 - Specifications 01:30 - Handling Noise 01:39 - Polar Pattern Test 01:47 - Background Noise Test 01:59 - Distance Test 02:11 - Mic Activator Test 02:24 - SM57 vs SM58 vs SM7b 02:50 - Windscreen Tests 03:22 - Music Test 03:55 - Pros & Cons 04:34 - Overall Sound 04:52 - Recommendation 05:15 - Outro Buy the Shure SM57 Global: https://geni.us/sm57 Buy the A81WS US: http://amzn.to/2gStxuD UK: N/A CA: http://amzn.to/2yBZjUv DE: N/A Buy the A2WS US: http://amzn.to/2xan5Wd UK: N/A CA: http://amzn.to/2yB0ghy DE: N/A Buy the A55M US: http://amzn.to/2znqCkL UK: N/A CA: http://amzn.to/2gSutiX DE: N/A Buy the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 (2nd Gen) US: http://amzn.to/2vDFbzK UK: http://amzn.to/2w8O2f6 CA: http://amzn.to/2wKGKfG DE: http://amzn.to/2hbtxsV My YouTube Kit: https://kit.com/podcastage/my-youtube-kit My Favorite XLR Mics: https://kit.com/podcastage/my-favorite-xlr-mics My Favorite USB Mics: https://kit.com/podcastage/my-favorite-usb-mics NOTE (FULL DISCLOSURE): If you purchase an item using my amazon link, it provides me a small referral fee.
