(Or interface mic gain) But I’m not fully convinced. I have also search on KZitem about this topic and nothing. I have also tried 50% for both and I don’t seem to hear any change.

What I meant to say was that they seem to be pretty demanding on the preamp (whatever that means). Not necessarily highest quality stuff, just they are picky at what preamp they work good with (for example impedance). They also need a bit more gain than usually with mics. Search for sm57 and preamp or something if you're interested and see if you find similar info, maybe not?

@@OssianOtt I feel like this type of "advice" from ppl is just to sell preamps. Your mic positioning and placement in a room will matter more than a "high end" pre. There are no magic bullets in audio, no special keys. Mixing and recording and such are just like learning an instrument. You gotta do it a lot and suck at it for a while before you get "good", whatever that means. By the time you're "good" you don't care anymore. Your concern then is "how the hell do i make money doing this so I can justify all the time and money I've already dumped into it??" lol.. A 57 will always be a 57 no matter how much money you throw at it. If you only have 57s, that's cool, just pay lots of attention to distance, direction and angle, also different spots in your space. But keep doing research and try to eventually get 1 or 2 other mics so you can learn the differences mics can make. The sE V7 and V7x anf other sE mics too, AKG Perception mics, Studio Projects mics, Tascam TM-80, Behringer C2 pair (value king matched pair for drum overheads, but not much else, there's some good comparison vids on yt). I caution against low end MXL and CAD products. There's a lot of good cheap mics, you don't need a $1000 pre or a neumanns or anything. I read that Steve Albini recommended the Audio Technica Pro 37 as the best mic under $200.00, though the story of the recommendation was from like 20 years ago. Its a good little mic though and pretty different from a 57. And check out "recording hacks" for microphone information. It's a really great resource. And i don't mean to diss 57s or mic preamps, i like a 57 for what it is and i think mic pres are juicy, lol.. But the best place to start is to build a little selection of mics.

At least, on your voice, for spoken word. For the solo electric, the SM57 was noticeably better. For the mix, I couldn't tell. For the acoustic, the M201 sounded better; the SM57 just sounded kind of "dead" or something. Like I was only hearing the strings, and not the body, if that makes any sense. Singing: No preference.

The SM57 has more lower treble, which a lot of people associate with "clarity". But if you listen with a good enough monitoring system, the SM57's treble sounds grainy or "cardboard-y", whereas the M201 is buttery-smooth. You can EQ the 201 to sound just as present as the 57, but you can't EQ the 57 to sound as smooth as the 201.

A better comparison for the m201 would be the SM7B. I'd choose the m201 over both the SM57 and SM7B for any studio use, but you can't go wrong with an SM57 for live settings. It doesn't matter if an SM57 gets knocked over, has beer spilled on it, or if a idiot vocalist decides to do a mic drop. It's cheap, bulletproof and everyone knows how it sounds.

I sometimes use a 57 for vocals with the A81WS and it definitely changes/improves the sound. It's not night and day but it definitely helps on most voices.

There's a simple mod to improve the sound of an SM57 - putting a resistor (680 ohms is about the correct value) across its output pins 2 and 3. This has the effect of damping some of the HF resonances and smoothing that aggressive HF boost boost. I think the mic was originally designed for transformer inputs, which also tame it in a similar way.

The 57 has that big ol 5k-6k presence peak that you either like on a particular source or not. This is why some people love them on a guitar cab or a snare drum and sometimes other things while others jusy hate the mic altogether. I also think some people just like to hate the 57 because it's kind of cool to hate the mic. The Beyer M201 has a lot smoother rise and isn't as boosted in that high presence range like the 57 is but you will pay dearly for that with a pricetag that is triple the cost of the $99 SM57. If the Beyer is out of your budget then the 57 can still get great recordings, a little eq cut in that 5k-6k range can do wonders if you have a source that the 57's presence boost doesn't flatter. Both mics are studio standards, if you can afford it buy them both but if you can only afford the 57 then just learn it well, understand how it works exactly, and you can compensate for it quite a bit. The 57 basically has a big proximity boost, a substantial presence boost, and rolls off in the high frequencies, all of these things can be adjusted for with eq if needed.

I truly could not distinguish between the mics on spoken word. I agree with all your assessments. For electric guitar, the Shure provides a "stage ready" sound without needing much EQ, but also is limiting for any sort of recording. For acoustic guitar, the Beyer provides so much more clarity and high-frequency detail, it isn't even a comparison! As a musician who has used both mics, I sold the Shure and kept the Beyer.

M201 is great on el. guitar, but the E906 is even better!

I'm honestly shocked. Ive always loved the SM57, but I ended up picking the M201TG every time.

I am very surprised you did not mention anything about the biggest difference between these two mics. SM57 is a single coil while M201TG is a humbucker. That translate into EMF hum picking noise sucker vs quiet as a mouse pro tool. The choice is all yours. Sold my two SM57 and got them replaced with Beyerdynamic M201TG. What a difference!

I would think the biggest difference is the sound quality of them. But that's a very great point that you mention though that I hadn't even considered. Thank you for pointing out that the M201 is hum bucking while the SM57 is not.

The SM57 is very easy to recognise. I preferd it on the elctric guitar, but on the acoustic guitar the Beyerdynamic has the edge in my opinion.

Yeah the 57 has that classic sound we've heard thousands of times.
