yet keeps them smooth and Easy On The Ears. It's no surprise that the SM58 is the most popular mic in the world. The SM58 has a cardiod (unidirectional) polar pattern, 50-15,000 Hz frequency response, and is a low-impedance microphone. Shure includes a mic stand adapter and a zippered storage pouch. Consistently the first choice of performers around the globe, the SM58 vocal microphone is a genuine world standard and a true audio legend. The Shure SM58 is a unidirectional (cardioid) dynamic vocal microphone designed for professonal vocal use in sound reinforcement and studio recording. A highly effective, built-in, spherical filter minimizes wind and breath 'pop' noise. A cardioid pickup pattern isolates the main sound source while minimizing unwanted background noise. The SM58 has a tailored vocal response for a sound which is a world standard. Rugged construction, a proven shock mount system, and a steel mesh grille ensure that even with rough handling, the SM58 will perform consistently. Outdoors or indoors, singing or speech - the SM58 is the overwhelming choice of professionals worldwide. Shure SM58 Features Smooth, mid-frequency presence rise provides the distinct, world-famous SM58 sound Uniform cardioid pickup pattern isolates the main sound source and minimizes background noise Pneumatic shock-mount system cuts down handling noise Rugged construction for extreme reliability in demanding applications Effective, built-in spherical wind and pop filter Frequency response: 50 to 15,000 Hz Supplied with break-resistant stand adapter which rotates 180 degrees Legendary Shure quality, ruggedness, and reliability Variations: SM58 or SM58S (With On/Off Switch) PROXIMITY EFFECT When the sound source is less than 1/4 in. from the microphone, the microphone boosts bass frequencies (by 6 to 10 dB at 100 Hz), creating a warmer and richer bass sound than when farther away. This effect, known as proximity effect, happens only in unidirectional dynamic microphones like the SM58. The SM58 low-frequency roll-off provides greater control, allowing the user to take full advantage of proximity effect. APPLICATIONS AND PLACEMENT The SM58 is ideal for close-up vocals and can be held in the hand or mounted on a stand. Some of the most common applications and placement techniques are listed in the following table. Keep in mind that microphone technique is largely a matter of personal taste—there is no one correct microphone position. Lead & Backup Vocals SUGGESTED MICROPHONE PLACEMENT  (less)
