do you think that the schure sm58 works for soft vocals??, my voice is soft and I have this mic.
Can you recommend me a spacial mic for soft vocals please.
 
A condensor would be more suited to soft vocals, IMO. Condensors require phantom power, so you'd need a mic pre or mixer that can supply that.

What other gear do you have? What's your budget?

the sm58 is a well known live vocal mic primarily becuase it does not pick up quieter sounds as well, if you are not singing directly into the mic, it generally will not pick up as much of the extra sound floating around your room.

As was mentioned, a condensor (large diameter most likely) will be your best choice, there are a number that are well regarded that you could pick up for around the same ballpark cost as the sm58. Having more than one mic is nice for the options it gives you in recording as well

Daav.
