very helpful!

Great video, thank you!

[@stickittotheman4432]

Awesome video. Also, to my ears it sounded like the dynamics were more natural with the SM81 while the SM57 sounded a touch compressed. However, considering the difference in cost, the SM57 sounded surprisingly good.

Yes, I'm always surprised at how good the SM57 sounds with such an affordable price. BTW, I just got a WA-47jr, will be doing some more comparison videos in the near future - thanks for subscribing
