That's what I thought, but when I introduced the
topic to a music store owner and sound engineer I know, he said the good ol'
SM57s still sell better and are more popular. He didn't particular like the
newer Beta models. The old Sures are just work horses. For me it's either an
SM57/58, or jump to a $400+ microphone.

what about the beta
57 or something a little more expensive?

They also work good together. The Beyer has more bottom end, but
the SM57 is crisper in the high end. Some recording engineers use both to
record the guitar, arranging them in a 90 degree angle and mixing them
together. I don't know if it's a fact that the Beyer is a high end version
of the SM57, though...there's only a $50-$60 difference on average.
Each probably has its strengths depending on the application. I'd
consider both low-mid range mics.

Beyer M201. The "high-end-version" of the SM57.
Clearer sound (which means it will be better on acoustic instruments),
hypercardiod pattern (means better anti-feedback/directional
properties).

Betreff: microphone
Hi,
I am wondering what would
be a good quality all-purpose microphone for looping. I would have
it on stage either handheld for vocals or on a stand for percussion
and acoustic instruments etc. I guess good anti-feedback properties
and quite high sensitivity/directional properties would be good for
quieter stuff.
Cheers!
