Commentaires sur le tutoriel "Comment utiliser son shure sm58"

Il y a fort à parier que l'information ne soit ^pas exacte. En revanche en pratique et pour avoir souvent fait cette manip, lorsqu'on manque de 57, on peut enlever la grille d'un 58 pour le remplacer et obtenir un son vraiment très similaire.

The 57 and 58 microphones are actually based on the same cartridge design. The main difference is in the grille design. The SM58 was designed for vocal applications, and therefore uses a ball grille with built in pop filter to eliminate plosives. The SM57 is designed as an instrument microphone, where a smaller grille size is more practical and plosives are less of a concern. Subsequently, the SM57 does not use a ball grille with pop filtering and instead uses an integral resonator/grille assembly, where the grille is actually part of the cartridge.
Each grille design places the diaphragm of each microphone in a different acoustical environment. The distance from the top of the grille to the diaphragm is shorter on the SM57 compared to that of the SM58, which allows for a more pronounced proximity effect through closer mic positioning. Additionally, the different resonator/grille assembly design of the SM57 produces a slightly higher output above 5 kHz.
