What can you say about the Shure SM57 It is a tool found in the workbench of every sound engineer, both for live and studio applications. There's simply no question: it's a "must-have" mic.
The SM57 is a cardiod (unidirectional) dynamic microphone with a contoured frequency response of 40 to 15,000 Hz, perfect for clean reproduction of vocals and instruments. But the SM57 is most renowned in the music industry as the standard microphone of choice for snare drums and guitar amplifiers. Go to any stage or studio and you're likely to find SM57s pointing at the amps and snare.
By the way, the '57 has been proudly standing on the podium of the US President for over 30 years, so you can add patriotism to its outstanding attributes! This mic is also known to take a beating and come back for more, so tell your roadie Rocco to have a ball! Its outstanding performance, legendary reliability, and diversity of application make this "workhorse" the choice of performers, producers, and sound engineers the world over.

| U87 COND |
Over 50,000 U87 users can't be wrong, this microphone is the professional standard and sets the mark by which all others are measured. The U 87 will celebrate its 40th birthday in 2007 and is still going strong.
The U 87 is probably the best-known and most widely used Neumann studio microphone. It is equipped with a large dual-diaphragm capsule with 3 directional patterns: omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8. These are selectable with a switch below the headgrille. A 10 dB attenuation switch, located on the rear, enables the microphone to handle sound pressure levels up to 127 dB without distortion. Furthermore, the low frequency response can be reduced to compensate for proximity effect.
Features:
Variable large diaphragm microphone
Pressure-gradient transducer with double membrane capsule
The studio microphone classic
3 directional characteristics: omni, cardioid, figure-8
Switchable low frequency roll-off
Switchable 10 dB pre-attenuation
Ideal as main and as support microphone in the most differing recording situations
Applications
The U 87 Ai condenser microphone is a large diaphragm microphone with 3 polar patterns and a unique frequency and transient response characteristic. |
| E609 DYN |
e609 Silver
The e609 Silver is based on the legendary MD 409 microphone. Able to withstand high SPLs without distorting, the e609 Silver's flat-profile capsule allows extremely close miking of guitar cabinets and precise drum miking, particularly toms. The e609 Silver's super-cardioid design improves isolation while its increased output and wider frequency response improves performance. Its sound inlet basket, made of refined steel, is distinguished by a unique silver address side.
Features:
Metal construction -- rugged and reliable
Super-cardioid pick-up pattern provides isolation from other on-stage signals
Hum compensating coil reduces electrical interference
Neodynum ferrous magnet with boron keeps mic stable regardless of climate
