Shure SM58 Myths 1 - Old Technology

It’s true that the SM58 has been around longer than many bands. But believe it or not, the old technology that makes it work is still cutting-edge today! In this video, Shure’s Chad Wiggins explains why other dynamic mic manufacturers work so hard at imitating the fabled 58 – and the one thing they all get wrong.

Old technology? Last I checked, microphone tech has been pretty consistent for the past.. idk... forever. Microphones have always worked fundamentally the same.

The Yeti might be old, but does anyone talk about the SM58 whenever they're at a live concert?

Legendary mic, but it does needs some modernization. It sounds like singing over the sock. For example: Sennheiser/AKG/SE have all made mics that sounds much cleaner and have better sound quality. Explain that @Shure :) And why not made the handle or a capsule a bit square so it does not rolls over when you put it on a flat surface. If new design came out everyone would start buying it and Shure would make a lot of money.

I have a few vintage Shure SM58 microphones which have degraded foam cartridge tops, does anyone know if you can buy replacements for these? Not the foam windshield the foam which sits on top of the actual cartridge, thanks in advance

To tell you the honest truth of the matter . For the money shure sm58 or 57. are the best toughest stage mikes i know of. These are the only choices

I gave this test to my little $9 Walmart mic and it work the same way.
