Reminds me, I was watching a Christmas special with my wife from the Philippines with normal you tube sound (lossy compression) where they had every singer who was somebody in the Philippines, singing. A lot of the performers had side address large diaphragm mics, but I guess they ran out and there were a few (less well known or newer acts) with sm58s. I was surprised at how closed they sounded compared to the others even after mangling with mp3 to get a slow enough stream speed for youtube. Still I guess you can use the sm58 to help build the stage... No they don't sound very natural. They aren't used in way that helps either... less than an inch away from the mouth. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
