My bad, yep they are both unidirectional They do have slightly different specs...but both work great and one would be hard pressed to tell the difference in a blind test

As I understand it to be, The 57 and 58 have the same capsule so the difference is the screen piece with the 58 more omni than the 57 which I wouldn't say is completely unidirectional but more so than the 58..I suspect you can get a great recording with either with experimentation.

Dang I was going through some old files and stumbled upon this one I did back in 2011..probably one of my first attempts at doing a multi track recording on the reaper back then using a Yamaha Motif...I'm lazy and don't do multi track anymore....but the strings, synth and drums are pretty cool...

Well brother these are first world problems right? You're above ground and there is tomorrow...hopefully :oops: Hope you are able to get yer ya ya's out soon..I totally get ya though..bangin on 70 myself I still run a out of home business and then the wife has a laundry list of things she wants...

I like the tune man I'm thinking a break in it somewhere for a ripping lead guitar solo would be a nice ad. Also some quick little guitar squeals or sax or something added in between the breaks in the words in the area where you sing isn't this ( little ripper going along with the guitar chords...

Oh heck yeah many times when the subject is brought up.... Mainly because I agree with him and in my journey of being a songwriter and musician I have totally experienced what he is speaking of.

We take ourselves WAY to seriously and give ourselves too much credit. Though we can expound on how we and all of this thing we call life came to be till the cows come home, in the end we are truly clueless and always will be. First off what I call the gifts. Life being the first gift...then...

dumbasses set their video so you have to go to youtube to watch it...dumbasses I tell ya........but an interesting video on using two sm 57's on an acoustic guitar

A perfect example of New and Improved! You won't believe your ears example....Yep I drank the koolaid # 15 years ago me thinks.... Peavey Kosmos...pfffft!

Love me my 57's! They work for everything for capturing sound and then some GAS and the evil marketing executives convince us that we need next years model , better , New and Improved! Truth is garbage in garbage out and many a #1 hit throughout the history of recorded music was captured...

In my 40 years of writing songs, both the lyrics and music that goes with them, the songs have come about with the words first, the melody first, by accidentally playing a chord or riff that I liked and built upon. I have had songs come to me both with just lyrics or melodies or both while...

So you're looking for your Elton...That combo is a one in a million thing and yet it happened. Posting here and elsewhere is better than never putting them out there and no one even considering them. Hope you find Him or Her. Yeah the first one definitely felt country... They all are good...

I picked up one of the arturia keylab essential 88's used a month or so ago to use as a midi controller...paid $125 and it came with a ton of free software ..I've dabbled a bit and there are a ton of sounds...I sold my 88 MODX because I felt the keys were too loud and clanky and picked up a new...

LOL very common phenomenon... I'm lucky that this country rock group I'm playing in is seasoned veterans and the drummer is a fanatic on timing and dynamics... we only practice once a month at the leaders house in his garage. He leaves the garage door open. He's got cool neighbors that accept...

Less is more ...GAS (Gear acquisition syndrome) is an ego thing. If the goal is to get recording keep it simple. I built my first PC in 1996. I've built at least 30 since then but quit building around 10 years ago when the I-series chips were blowing up the market. If you want to build a PC...

Because we are old farts the tape machines hold a place in our hearts...but have no place in any serious recording studio these days except for nostalgia's sake. I am on hold working with the "Almost Beatles" dudes but as Brett put it to me, "I'm in the band" whenever I want to come back and I...

Your on Medicare I assume...my advise ask to see a Physical therapist they work voodoo magic...sometimes a little painful to get to where you want to be. The ol no pain no gain thing..It might be a fixable condition...Good luck dude!
