Shure SM58SE - Dynamic Vocal Microphone with Switch The Shure SM58SE is a legendary dynamic microphone that has served as the unofficial standard in the music and broadcasting industries for decades. Its timeless design combines rugged durability with clean, professional vocal reproduction, making it a popular choice for both beginner singers and major stage stars. Product Features Key advantages of the Shure SM58SE include a cardioid pickup pattern that provides excellent rejection of side noise, a tuned frequency response optimized for vocals, and a spherical steel grille that filters out sweat and breath. The built-in wind and pop filters, along with the rugged die-cast construction, ensure that the device can withstand the rigors of touring without issue. Professional Capabilities for Your Creativity The Shure SM58SE microphone stems from a family that can be described as the icon of live sound reinforcement. Thanks to its dynamic transducer with an impedance of 150 ohms and a sensitivity of -54.5 dB (1.7 mV), it delivers a stable signal to mixers and interfaces via the XLR connector. The cardioid pickup pattern isolates the main sound from neighboring instruments and audience noise, facilitating a clear mix. The frequency response range of 50 to 15,000 Hz emphasizes the presence and articulation of mid-range tones, adding warmth and clarity to vocals. The SM58SE model differs from the standard SM58 by the inclusion of an on/off switch, which gives the performer direct control over muting the microphone between songs or during presentations. While this feature can be useful for conference sound reinforcement, care must be taken not to cut off the signal at a critical moment. The built-in internal shock mount protects delicate components from vibrations, and the steel mesh filters out breath. This equipment is suitable for stage monitoring, radio, as well as home recording studios, where a reliable, neutral microphone for singing and speech is sought.
