Great mic, Great priceOct 24, 2008
This dealer had the best price I've ever seen on this mic $70. If you know the shure 57's then you know this mic. Buy it!

Excellent dynamic mic, live or in the studioOct 30, 2007
The Beta series is the step above the incredibly popular SM series by Shure. The 57s are typically used to mic instruments and the 58s mainly for vocals. It is a dynamic microphone, so it's rugged enough for any situation, but is built to a much higher standard than typical dynamics so you get a lot more range and detail than you might expect.
I have used the 57 for a wide variety of instruments and vocals with great success both live and in the studio.
The Beta57 is excellent on snare, acoustic guitar, electic guitar, horns and wind instruments in addition to being a great vocal microphone. The supercardioid pattern ensures much more flexibility on stage with less chance of feeding back.
Overly loud bands with demanding vocalists who need as much as you can give them in the monitors, this is a life saver. Snare top and bottom. High hats when I don't want the bleed that a condenser would give. This is my go to mic for live applications.

Works great for me!Mar 10, 2007
My dad bought me this mic for Christmas, when I said I "Needed something to record myself practicing with." I'm not too savvy with this stuff (yet), but I recorded an audition CD on piccolo! with it, and it turned out great. For the price, it's really very good for people like me...emerging professional orchestral musicians who need to make audition CD's and such but don't have the time/money to go paying for a recording studio.
