The way the events are unfolding is the worst possible timeline. Drumpf recovering with mild symptoms is the perfect scenario to support the ``just a flu bro'' claim.
>>3 He recovered because he's a rich fuck in the most powerful position in the world, they're not gonna let him just die, they can spare the best drugs imaginable. None of us have that luxury.

imagine being so retarded you die to the common cold.
Its almost like homosexuality, drugs, and lardass is detrimental to ones health
@jmhdsn 2 years ago (edited) This may have already been in a comment, but here goes:
The body of the SM57 has a small transformer between the mic diaphragm and the XLR jack.
However, in an SM57, if you (while first taking note of where each wire is connected) desolder the wires from the diaphragm capsule and the XLR jack and remove them both so only the center body remains (basically the largest part of the mic and what most people grip), you can stick the body containing the transformer into boiling water, which will melt the epoxy.
Then, you can scrape all of that out and remove the transformer. After that, you can solder the wires connected to the diaphragm capsule directly to the XLR connecters, and the result will give you a michrophone with SM7 characteristics.
The mic’s output will be quieter, so you’ll need more gain and headroom than an SM57 requires, but it’s a pretty easy mod to diversify your mic cabinet if you have multiple SM57s.
Just thought the might be of interest. It appears that the Pyle does not have a transformer in the body like the 57, and that the diaphragm capsule is wired directly to the XLR connector, but those are assumptions I made based on what was shown in the video. And if true, that doesn’t make the Pyle sound like an SM7, as described above.
So, I’m sure everyone knows this, but to me, there is clearly a difference in the mic diaphragms of the Shure and the Pyle, and that’s where you’re going to get most of the characteristics of a mic when recording, regardless of it being a condenser, dynamic, etc.
However, I think your use case of not having a lot of cash to spend so going with a Pyle copy of the 57 is great advice. I mean, $15 to get started vs $100 isn’t a hard decision. In my opinion, it’s always better to create even if the resources are limited, rather than sit around and fantasize about how great your shit will be once you have the right gear.
And I am thinking if you’re recording an instrument with the Pyle, it would be a good exercise in learning EQ to get it closer to a 57, if that’s even something one would want to do. They may be perfectly happy with the sound of the Pyle.
The Pyle doesn’t sound bad to me, per se. I think it hypes the mid-to-high end and has less low end than a 57, but this is one of those scenarios where you have to stop and think, “Yes, me and all my recording nerd friends know that, but is the average Spotify user going to have their day ruined if they hear a Pyle mic over a 57 or 58?”
I think the answer is no, because most people just don’t give a shit as long as it sounds good enough. Emphasis on “enough,” you don’t need to be Steely Dan here.
Am I ranting? Yes, I think I’m ranting. So I will stop.
Thanks for the video, I enjoyed it (clearly, haha).
