I’ve been using this microphone to mic my amp into the PA system during gigs, as well as to do home recordings, for the past 5 or so months, while also handling several of the renowned Shure 57s it clearly goes a bit further than just taking inspiration from.
No, I won’t say it sounds “just the same” compared to the better known model from Shure - rather that Behringer’s take works just as fine for live and studio recordings as the 57, which I believe is a fair assessment and sums up my experience with it.
This mic feels like a solid and well made product and works just like so, with a clear input that, while properly representing the sound from my amp, also providing a sonic range I’d describe as “familiar”, though I lack the expertise to dive any deeper than that.
All in all, it’s a solid, reliable and good-sounding mic that costs about 20 bucks and comes with a hard case. I wouldn’t necessarily advise one to cheap out on the most basic, longest-lasting and least prone to obsolescence pieces of equipment you’ll invest in, however for the rising artist and/or producer, the hobbyist musician, the Saturday night club manager or the gigging player in need of a mic that won’t break the bank if it gets lost, I’d say the Behringer 75C to be a solid bet that’ll always double as a backup, in case a more proven alternate is attained later on.
