Shure SM57 Cardioid Dynamic Instrument Microphone

Original price was: RM774.00.Current price is: RM658.00.

  • The Industry Standard Instrument Microphone: Trusted by professional engineers and musicians worldwide since 1965 — equally at home on snare drums, guitar amplifiers, brass, woodwinds, and acoustic instruments.
  • Contoured Presence Rise for Clean Instrument Reproduction: Tailored frequency response brings out brightness and clarity in instruments and amplifiers without harsh peaks or unnatural coloration.
  • Tight Cardioid Pattern for Maximum Isolation: Effective unidirectional pickup keeps off-axis noise, monitor bleed, and room ambience out of the signal — critical for dense live mixes and multi-mic studio setups.
  • Pneumatic Shock-Mount System: Minimises the transmission of mechanical noise and handling vibration, keeping the signal clean even in physically demanding live environments.
  • Proximity Effect for Tonal Shaping: Bass frequencies boost naturally at close distances — use it intentionally to add warmth and body to the source, or pull back for a more balanced, full-range sound.
  • Exceptionally Rugged Construction: Die-cast steel body with a polycarbonate grille and stainless steel screen built to withstand the daily rigours of touring, live performance, and studio use.
  • Versatile Enough for Vocals Too: While designed for instruments, the SM57’s presence rise and cardioid isolation make it a capable vocal microphone for character-rich live applications.

Shure SM57 Cardioid Dynamic Instrument Microphone

Few microphones have earned the title of industry standard. The Shure SM57 is one of them.

Since its introduction in 1965, the SM57 has been the go-to instrument microphone for engineers, musicians, and producers across every genre — from snare drums and guitar cabs to brass, woodwinds, and acoustic instruments. Its bright, contoured presence rises to deliver clean, defined reproduction of whatever you point it at, while its tight cardioid pattern keeps off-axis noise and monitor bleed firmly out of the picture.

 

 

What sets the SM57 apart isn’t any single specification — it’s the consistency. Point it at a snare, a guitar amp, a kick drum, or even a vocal in a pinch, and it delivers. Close-mic a speaker cone for sharp attack and punch; pull back for a fuller, more balanced tone. The proximity effect can be used intentionally to add warmth and weight to the source. The pneumatic shock-mount system handles mechanical noise and vibration so your signal stays clean even in the roughest live setups.

Built from die-cast steel with a stainless steel screen, the SM57 is made to be abused — kicked, dropped, hit by flying drumsticks — and keep working. It has appeared on stages and in studios at every level of the industry, and on the podium at the White House for every U.S. president since 1965.

Ideal for drummers, guitarists, recording engineers, live sound engineers, and anyone who needs a reliable, versatile instrument microphone for stage or studio.
