ShureSM58 Pro XLR Dynamic Microphone - Professional Studio & Live Performance Cardioid Mic for Vocals, Podcasting, and Recording (SM58-LC)

I couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase of the Shure SM58 Pro XLR Dynamic Microphone Stage Performance Kit! The microphone itself is fantastic—clear, crisp sound with excellent noise rejection, making it perfect for live performances. It captures my vocals with impressive clarity, and the cardioid pattern does a great job of minimizing unwanted background noise.The kit includes everything you need to get started: a 15-foot XLR cable, a sturdy stand, an A25D clip, and a convenient carrying bag for easy storage and transport. The build quality of all the components is top-tier, and I’ve been using it both on stage and in the studio without any issues.Shure’s reputation definitely holds up with this model, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, professional-grade microphone. Whether you're a performer or a content creator, this microphone will elevate your sound!

SM stands for Studio Microphone, so while most think of this as a live performance mic, which don't get me wrong it excels at, many people think it's a poor choice for studio work. It was built with studio work in mind, and just happens to be durable enough to withstand the torture of touring and being brought out for every event.It's a cardioid dynamic mic so if you aren't in a supremely sound proofed environment, say a bedroom you've done no sound dampening or minimum sound dampening work to, this is fantastic. It will cut out the immediate echos that can muddy recordings that otherwise would be picked up by a condenser mic. It's also great for talk shows for the same reason. Most things on the butt end of the mic will be seriously cut out. Maybe not 100% but enough that you can hide it in a mix or cut with a sound gate without hurting the thing you're actually recording.I recommend this with the focusrite audio interface, but anything that takes XLR cable and let's it talk to a PC is fine. I recommend every home musician have one of these. Or podcaster, as the only difference between this and is larger big brother you see on every show is basically a well endowed wind screen. Everything else is identical internally.I worked in a recording studio for a college for a few years and while condensers have their place and can get extremely crisp amazing quality, that can be a WORSE choice if it's used in the wrong environment. You don't need to hear your roommates phone call in the next room while you record vocals, or the backing track/metronome you're singing along with. This mic will let you record at home and give you more than enough quality for professional sounding mixes.

It’s tough, sounds great and is built like a tank.

The only mic I ever bought.I'm not much of a singer. I sing backup harmonies. I was using another quality mic the drummer had, but it had no depth and didn't sound like me. Since I've been doing more singing, I wanted something with better sound,.This is not a lightweight like the other. It's solid and strong, It fits any standard mic holder and comes with it's own. The XLR connector is solid, with a crisp snap when you connect it. Since it's XLR you can use Phantom power if you have to, no battery required. The classic Shure sound, and I love the all black finish.I got it on sale at a fantastic price. Worth every penny

Very great product for the price super quality for vocals.

I recently did bought the Shure SM58 Pro XLR Dynamic Microphone, and while it’s a fantastic mic with excellent sound quality, especially for vocals, I found myself drawn to the new SHURE MV7+ USB-C model. The SM58 has a classic, robust design and delivers clear, professional audio, but the MV7+ offers the convenience of USB-C, making it incredibly sleek and easy to use with both USB and XLR options. The MV7+ is perfect for those who want high-quality sound but with the added flexibility of modern connectivity, especially for podcasting or streaming. While the SM58 is still a great choice for stage performances or professional setups, the USB-C feature of the MV7+ makes it a more convenient and versatile option for those working from home or on the go. Both are great, but the MV7+ just edges out for practicality

Even with a cheap mixer, this mic sounded great for my vocals, and picked up my drums well. Basically plug-n-play. Doesn’t come with a cord, as explained. Perfectly sensitive, reacts well to my voice. The mic clip was a bit tight, takes a bit of force to set it. Works amazing!

High quality mics
