[QUOTE="Eric Cagle, post: 82883, member: 277"] Re: The SM58... That is a good question. The only thing I can think of is the SM58 never really sounds bad on anyone, just not as good as other mics can sound on some singers. It has a slightly "forward" sound to it with the presance peak and will often help a lead vocal to stand out in a mix. Other than the low cut filter I don't like to use ANY eq on the lead vocal with an analog console due to the phase artifacts that "smear" the sound and the 58 will always work with no or minimal cuts. Also you don't get "as" upset if they get abused because they are tough and cheap. [/QUOTE]
