The new SM57!
The Audix i-5 is a modern version of the classic SM57 with the following improvements:
takes higher SPL before "loading up" or distorting
has a tighter pattern for cleaner separation through the PA
more durable with a super tough, zinc die cast grill
The i-5 is designed with a cardioid polar pattern, allowing it to focus on the particular instrument that is being miked without picking up other instruments or ambient noise on stage. With a smooth & uniform frequency response of 50 Hz - 16 kHz & an ability to handle sound pressure levels in excess of 140 dB, the i-5 can be used for a wide variety of applications & for all genres of music.
