The Shure SM58® unidirectional (cardioid) dynamic vocal microphone is designed for professional vocal use in live performance sound reinforcement and studio recording. It has a tailored vocal response for a sound which is a world standard for singing or speech. 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.
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.
