Gotta say I've never seen any of your videos, but I love the way you did this video easy to follow and to the chase with extra knowledge for people who might now know some thiings!
Firstly, thanks so much for keeping your epic intro music at a level roughly equal to your voice segments, rather than blowing out my eardrums like a lot of other people do. As for the comparison, the differences are pretty big for these two. More plosives and sibilance on the PG58 and less response in the low tones. The SM58 is just such a smoother sound. Thanks.
SM58 all day. Best starter mic you can buy. Will last longer than most marriages.
AKG D5 better price and clearer voice, trust me!
@@TNTpyros agreed. I have both and whenever I try the shure, I think “it’s okay, I could live with it.” Then I try the AKG, i instantly hear the increase in sound and clarity.
🤣🤣
I really like the dramatic intro sequence ;)
great review thanks
I have been using the pg58 for a few years with no issues. I do karaoke so a lot of people Handel and even drop the microphones. The PG58 works best for my application... I have a sm58 also that I use on occasion... live, I can’t tell a difference... recording... very little difference to me.
If I use two PG at the same time will it sound better?
sm58 has less artifacts and unwanted noise overall, i wanted to get a pg, but after this comparison, i think the sm is really worth paying more
I believe the SM58 won the sound battle but in my opinion I don't believe there is enough difference to need to pay more for the SM58. So I'll be buying the PG58... thank you for your video and allowing us the chance to hear them side by side, very well made video!
thanks for the view 👍 more MIC WARS coming soon 🤘
Kurtis Hoover good point
its not just about sound, its about ruggedness, plosives rejection, handling noise rejection, feedback control, as well.
@@djkamilo66 Fair point.
To me sounds almost same
Thanx 4 this war. For me, better choice is SM58
I have both PGA58, which is the same with PG58, and also SM58. They almost sound the same. Both handle plosives well and both have shock systems inside. Difference is that PGA58 doesnt have transformer , despite that its still good and sounds clean. I suggest to go for PGA/PG58, you will save a lot for quite similar sound.
I had 5 sm58s, lost 2
Now I just got 1 pga58 and 2 pga48s.
They are all tremendous mics.. fantastic mics, made by tremendous people.😂😂😂
How much Rate
I've been using a PG58 in a small room for band practice and its been pretty good. That said it's not mine and I wanted one of my own so I brought a Beta SM58A and it didn't work as well in that setting. I had to turn down the vocals to avoid feedback which meant i had to push my voice harder. The Beta SM58A also seemed to pick more room noise as well as the quieter vocals which is the opposite of what I wanted. I don't get why the PG58 which is half the price would perform better then Beta SM58A, maybe it's just better in small spaces?
It has to do with sensitivity, and polar pattern.
Ever notice at a live performance how wedges are set up based on the mic. This is why the beta is feeding back
Your gain staging, and playback system
No big difference in performance. If the price is the difference why not go for PG58. Still the best.
In my use I will need the sm58 it’s quieter in hand
SM 58 thanks!
I just recently dug my PG58 out of the closet after 10 years. It sounds so much better than my USB condenser mic and doesn't pick up on every single keytap and click.
That's what dynamics are good for. They are usually less sensitive to surrounding noise.
how did you use it on your pc?
@@simplynate5814 Used an audio interface
@@gettriggered_ian3269 ok ty
@@simplynate5814 or use a xlr to USB cable
Sm58 sounds better if you were to listen to a voice for a longer duration, if you were using it say for a short period announcement mic I would go with the pg58 it's good enough.
In live applications there is no difference, you run gain in live shows so they both sound the same. I use a pg 48 sometimes when singers are extremely over powering. The beta 58 is industry standard.
I prefer the PG58 but only the example from 6 inches away
SM58 has warmer sound and less plosives, I would use PG58 in Karaoke or home use but would choose SM58 for more professional or stage use
Exactly!
Honestly the PG58 makes less noise when handheld and has less breath noise when up close judging by this comparison. I think some people just get the SM58 to jump on the bandwagon. The price difference isn't worth it.
SM 58 would last longer
I am not a STUDIO MAN, so I might not have heard these sounds as an engineer. Somehow the PG58 sounded more pleasant for me... it had more of the low ends...
impedence isnt the same either, so pg is louder. yet clips faster. i HAVE to use SM as im a really loud singer and PG clips too quickly for me. but ur right.
pg 58 is definitely more powerful, both used sm 58 garbage
Shure pg58 or Peavey pvi100?
I'd probably go with the Shure.
What audio adapter do you use?
Audio adapter? WTF are you talking about?
I'm sure they mean audio interface.
@@ashleymadison9380 lol chill man. RELAX. Breath in and breath out.
The PG58 good for the price but I go with the SM58.
pg58 it's good to Record guitars?
Every the ad says it is!
SM sounds cleaner as it catches sound faster. But that does not mean better, SM tends to catch words without the intent and meaning. The PG is slower and might sound less studio like, good for conversations. If I were to record music I would use both, one close and one at your projection. Then I would mix them to add depth
I'm hearing a buzz on the pg58.
I still have a sm58 from 1996.
Be advised if u didnt let Us know which mic u are using NO one could tell
They sound the same. The difference is the SM58 does seem to have a much better shock mount.
I want Pg 58
Shure sounds good to me 👍🏼
HOW DO I USE IT
put next to mouth. make mouth sounds.
Loco Busters Stale comment but an audio interface device is required. Personally I like the Focusrite Scarlett Solo. If you need more than one XLR connection get the 2i2 scarlett, its $50 more. But the PGA58 + scarlett solo is an excellent combo. Im using the A.Technica m50x’s (thoroughly hated and praised, i personally appreciate the low end response) plugged into the scarlett solo with the pg58 and a shitty metal-frame-and-spring boom. I am very pleased with the results, especially coming from cardioid condensers. I will be returning my snowball tomorrow.
badmiddens 🤣 🤣 🍻
Still pga 58 for me. For me Sm 58 too high 😂😂😂
You know how to eq. You don't have to hear a difference. You could save money use the pg58 and no one would be the wiser.
I agree but wether what other people hink out mic is or looks like isn't important or rather wetherits the more expensive one or not. However the quality is important. It's seems like the sm58 is a little better especially when it came to up close or even rate on the grill. Overall soun was also a little bit better but yes the price is kinda like do you want that little jump in quality for an extra 40 to 50 $?!?!
And yea if you just preforming with the mic but what about podcast and streaming. How wil the mic do live?
Definitely SM58
I've just bought a wireless PG58 and I've owned an SM58. I've done a bit of research myself into the differences and all I could find regarding the wireless versions is that the Sm58 is less prone to feedback and Win noise. When it comes to the wired versions the SM58 is a little bit more well built. Sound quality wise its down to personal opinion. The Sm58 is more of a warmer and fuller sound. The PG58 is still a very good professional Mic. The SM58 is preferred due to it being more robust but if looked after there both Quality mics.
Pg 58
Pg58 better than sm58
No entendí
Honestly, the Blue Yeti. I recently upgraded my audio interface and I have access to a whole pile of microphones at my new gig. I thought I'd definitely go for the SM58 or beta 58 but honestly the audio characteristics of the Yeti seem more clear and true to life. All of the XLR mics I've used just remind me of something I'd hear a church sermon or announcements at a school dance through. I'm not a fanboy either, I was legitimately excited to throw out my "old and busted" yeti that I've had for like 10 years. To be clear though, I mentioned the best XLR mics I have access to. I don't have an SM7B or anything.
Thats a condenser bro , comparing apples with oranges here. Dont try to use that Yeti on a live stage please lmao.
@@hannibalbarkas1350 yeah man I've learned a lot in the last 2 months. That was the first thing I posted on the subject. Since then I've even repaired a vintage condenser and have two different options. Even built a vocal booth. I also don't like the blue yeti anymore since it has a characteristic electronic whine that a lot of USB mics have. Even ferrite cores on the cable didn't help. Anyway I didn't even know what a noise floor was or what mineral wool was. Now I have a -60db booth for my condensers and I'm working up to building a u87 clone. I don't do live performances btw, but I understand what you were getting at as I get the general purpose and benefits of a dynamic mic now.
I would have made this demonstration shorter and faster to understand.
Pg58 is terrible
Dumb. I presumed that you were the expert. I own both SM & PG 58'S and wanted to hear an 'expert's opinion. This video, for me, was a waste of time.
