I know the SM57 is the be-all end all for most applications, but in an effort to expand my mic palette a bit...when shopping for two new mics I chose to go with the Beta57A -
a. I'm hoping to get a better overall response...
b. I'm hoping for a slightly higher end, esp. on my guitar amp micing
c. I didn't really have any hypercardorid (sp?) mics except for my MC 012's with interchangble heads
Anyone have a preference for one over the other...anyone really love the SM57 and HATE the 57A? I'm testing them out tomorrow but I haven't opened one, so I can still return it.
It looked a lot like the Beta 56A (one of my uses for this mic will be toms) -, except bigger...probably the same mic but with a shorter body.
