Five years ago I uploaded a video comparing the Shure SM57 and SM58 microphones. Since then I have received a number of requests to compare the SM58 to it's more modern relative the Beta58A. This video does just that.

Excellent review well done. While I appreciate the benefits of the Beta 58A in a live sound / vocal environment, as a retired broadcast engineer, I have to say that I still prefer the richer mid to low end response of the SM 58. It will remain my goto microphone for remote broadcasts / podcasts. Thank you once again for an excellent review.

@alsacrime4806 4 жыл бұрын

I refer to the SM 7 and not the SM 57. If you believe the 57 and 58 have identical components then take that up with Shure. Whether you think the sound of a 57 and and a 58 on spoken word is the same, the 7 is in another class for spoken word, the proper tool for the job, not a stick mic.

@NamFlowEN 4 жыл бұрын

@@alsacrime4806 Ah, well SM7B is different story then :-) of course SM7b is going to be better than SM57/SM58. However SM57 and SM58 are pretty much identical. There are numerous videos on that topic and people generally recommend to use SM57 for instruments and SM58 for spoken word nowadays, from what I gathered. If you take the grill (which consist of foam and acts like a little in-bult pop filter) from SM58 and put it somehow on SM57, you have pretty much the same microphone. Now that doesn't apply to SM Beta 58A, that is a lot different than SM57 and SM58.

Thanks for watching John. The mic stand idea is a cool one - only thing to remember is that the pattern is 3-dimensional and is very dependent on the angle of the microphone relative to the ground, so the legs would only show the coverage when the mic was at the same angle as the legs themselves 😉

Great review. Agree on your assessment of the sensitivity between the mics. I think what sucks is the audio compression when videos are uploaded. I'm listening on a pretty decent rig with a set of ATH-M50xBB, and there are so many audio artifacts that clearly aren't your fault, just a result of compression and streaming. That aside, I'm def swayed to the Beta58a now. Thx.

Beta58A = more output. Less handling noise. Hardened grill. Cuts thru better - keeping the vocals upfront in the mix. ( both great ) I had the 58 and Sold it & Upgraded to the 58a.

@jemsshrestha2627 2 жыл бұрын

So are you satisfied? How’s the performance of beta 58a?

@ZooxMaze Жыл бұрын

Never had any handling noise with the SM58... don't know anybody who has, personally. It's not built like a tank just to be oversentive to moving around. Heck, how many lead singers/rock stars swing the thing 'round like a lasso... how many times to they fall or get smashed onto the floor (the mic - not the singer) ?? From my experience, the Beta58 absolutely cuts through in the mix, I agree - especially, in regards for heavy metal and rock or large bands, the clarity is built in - sure. But, its sound fits better into today's electronic (DJ) music world, than the SM58 - no question. However, as any other kind of vocalist (acoustic, jazz, folk, pop, spoken word...) to my ears, the SM58 is the only one of the two which 'connects' audio-wise with the texture of 1960's pop music, for example. And, it's great for standard jazz vocals. In situations like that, I find the Beta58A is way too 'crystaline' and edgier sound for those mediums - as opposed to the warmth and bass response of the SM58.

@charlesg5085 Жыл бұрын

So in depth. I've bought my Beta 58a a long time ago, and actually carry it with me whenever I go karaoke lol. It has superb handling, and I often times find it the best hand held mic I've used. Almost no noise from handling at all. As a singer who has a lot of lower register, the 58a is also better to cut through as you've said. I'm happy wit the choice, and the price is well worth what I've paid. Since I've started to do more recording stuff, I've prefer to use condensers now, and the 58a just sits in the box. Still one of my favorite pieces of hardware. It just feels solid in the hand.

Thank you sir, great review. I own and use a Samson R11 that i have had for 10 years. It is similar in sound to the SM58 in my opinion, after comparing the two with my voice and other peoples' too. I have used a Sennheiser e835 with good results, as well as the Beta 57A and 58A. They are all different sounding/behaving and that is cool and frustrating sometimes.

@GLBProductions 5 жыл бұрын

Yes - at the end of the day it's about having options. In the early years the entire live sound industry used basically two mics: SM58s for vocals and SM57s for instruments. Today we are spoiled for choice, which is a great thing. Remember that 99% of the audience doesn't know or care what mic you are using - as long as the sound is loud and clear, that's all that matters to them! All the best with your music :)

I was in a jam band 20 years ago. I tried singing into an SM57 but no mater how much pleading I did (TURN IT DOWN!) I could never get my voice's volume up over the rest of the garage band. I did some research and found the Beta 57. The neodymium magnet makes a very big difference. With the purchase of the neodymium (ND) mic the next jam went easier for me. I was getting a much better volume. Ever since I have bought ND or condenser mics.

I use all sorts of different vocal mics. For recording i pretty much use the Neumann u87ai’s. For live, I usually use the sm58’s, most of the time. They cut through mix (always use a hpf) and they sound more natural than the beta 58a in my own opinion. It also has a good frequency response. Both are good sounding mics though. I run music for all different types of genres/bands.

I'm old-school - you simply cannot go wrong with 58s for vocals and 57s for instruments. It's all you need for live sound. The minor differences in response are easily tweaked at your board. For the price of one beta plus $20 you can have a 58 and a 57. Nuff said.

I really enjoyed this video! I must admit, when I saw it was an almost 18 minute video, I thought there might be a good amount of dead air or fluff, but boy, was I wrong! Really enjoyed your comparing the frequency response graphs as well as looking at the polar patterns and how that translated to how they react differently depending on where your mouth is in relation to the mic. Great job! I have subscribed and look forward to any more videos you do comparing mics because I know they wil be very thorough.

Glad you enjoyed the video! I've done several other mic comparison videos - SM58 vs SM57 and SM58 vs SM86, just search the channel :)

Used a beta58a for years singing in metal bands and it was great when travelling around to random venues where the sound environment was not always ideal

Yup, ideal microphone for that type of music 🤘🏻

Thanks very much for the very comprehensive and informative review. The info was very useful in deciding which mic to buy. Does this also apply to the Shure wireless mics?

Yes it does - the capsules are the same. Thanks for watching!
