Minuses
I haven't found it yet
Review
A very good microphone for your money. With a good transmission of the sound tones of the drums (worker, small volumes), and it is also interesting to use it for the sound of wind instruments (for example, a saxophone), does not spoil the sound at all, but on the contrary, gives the color of the instrument.

Pros
Well conveys the nuances of the sound of acoustic instruments such as an accordion, harmonic, cachon.
Minuses
It starts a little faster than vocal microphones, although this is natural, since the angle of coverage is greater.
Review
A very good microphone for your money. Constantly used for speaking acoustic instruments. The sound is completely satisfied. In the remote.ru, the price is also interesting.

Pros
The most important plus is a microphone is that it is shure sm57
Minuses
The disadvantage of this microphone can only be the owner’s curves.
Review
A wonderful microphone that has proven yourself from everyone, you just take this microphone and it is suitable for any purpose. If you do not agree with me, then most likely you do not need my review, because you also know what 57 is needed for it. I write everything on it. In general, that's it. But most often a stroke and guitars.

Pros
An excellent microphone, sound quality pleases.
Minuses
I did not notice.
Review
I took it mainly for recording the noise of the house, I really like the narrow orientation diagram in which side and rear noise and reverb are cut off, this is allowed to record sounds in the not -prepared room, I think this will touch the instruments or vocals.
Of the subjective disadvantages, I can only note a fairly quick drop in the signal level and the “eating” of the frequencies on the bottoms with at least a small distance, so when working with it, the sound source should be as close as possible.
