Me when people ask about mic quality: You can't really measure it, you need to try or hear it for yourself Julian Krause: Hold my Scarlett Solo, SSL2, Motu, Presonus Studio, Audient Evo, M Audio Air, UR22C, etc
I didn't expect something less than a perfect review from you Julian! By far the most well rounded reviews of all the products that pass from your hands! Please keep the good work for all of us!
I appreciate your doing objective reviews. Seems like everyone else reviewing gear on RUclips is either already sponsored by brands or are fishing for sponsorship, and therefore just trying to sell gear whether it's good quality or bad. It's hard to know who to trust, so watching a review that's just "This thing is good/bad, and here's precisely why" is refreshing. I'd encourage everyone to support this guy on Patreon; when you think about it, it'll actually save you money in the long run.
Brilliant test, well done, really informative. I actually think the V sound could be used as it is in certain situations. The eq you added got it remarkably close to the 57!
I just bought one just to have a backup for my SM57. For a recording hobbyist it is certainly usable and sounds fine when mic-ing an amp. Lots of online reviewers bashing Behringer in the past so it's nice to see the occasional positive review since a lot of us are on a budget while trying to build up our home studios. Thanks again Julian.
@@o84y I think the issue is the difference in polar patterns (as a function of freq), as said in the video. So I'm guessing for other mics, the sl75c might not be the best EQ-mimicry solution. It'd be interesting nonetheless, or better yet, to have some sort of freq response signature data to try and mimic them with our own tho. But maybe that's asking a bit too much lol
Awesome video. I don’t even have this microphone but it was very enjoyable to watch you analysis. Very cool of you to not only do the EQ work but also share hoe to do it yourself with everyone. Love how you are helping others
Thanks a lot for the exceptional review J. SM57 goes for almost $150 here in türkiye, way over it's global price for some reason. $20 for Behringer. I am now tempted to try SL75 with the settings you showed here. Thanks again.
I can see the behringer having its own use separate to the shure, there are certain sources that you want to cut some mid-mud from especially on a live mix, or using them in tandem and possibly mix in for tonal variations on the same instrument. Thanks for the spectacular review and samples, then time and care must you put into your work is greatly appreciated
Most people seem to be saying that the SM57 is the better audio product, but to me with the eq adjustment both sound as if the amp has a blanket over it. If my Sennheiser ever needs replacing I'll take a look at the behringer.
Once again, you do an excellent review. Yes, as you point out there are some differences in these mics. I think that the SM57 could be subject to giving a nasal quality to a singing voice. I suspect that the Behringer SL75C would have less of this, based on the frequency response curve. All of this being said, both are decent mics, but represent slightly different sounds that can be used for "colors" in your audio palatte. Like different tools for different applications, each of these might fit a special purpose application.
I did't like the sound of the SL75 (without EQ) on guitar and bass. But I have to admit when EQd, it's really really close ! And, I'm used to record snares with a SM57, and need to EQ this way : bring back some 100-200Hz a few dBs, cut some resonances between 400Hz and 1200Hz, and CRANK the mid highs and 10kHz to get the snare drum sound I like. And this is exactly what this mic's doing : a bit more of Low end, more pronounced mid highs, and some more 10kHz. I have to try one or two of them next time I record some drums. Thank you for the tips and measures, your work is so useful for the community !
SL EQed pretty close to 57. like you said it cant be perfect, SM7 still more smoother at high freq. overall, pretty close. thanks for amazing review Julian
Hey Julian, another great ear/eye opening test/review. Do you think it may be beneficial when doing comparison tests to demonstrate the resulting differences by using the inverted phase cancellation trick of two identical mono recordings of the same audio? If you were able to EQ one of the mic tracks until there is almost silence, then you will have achieved frequency matching of the two mics. Perhaps some manufacturers will love this, and others...maybe not so much, if you know what I mean!
Excellent review and confirms what my ears were also telling me. I did a test recording with these 2 mic's on my EVH5150 amp and that brighter tone of the SL75 was immediately apparent. This actually suited my purposes, as I was hoping the mic's would not sound too similar so that I could record 2 tracks simultaneously and use this as the starting point for double tracked guitars. Since I always EQ the guitar recordings in any case, I am finding the Behringer is an excellent budget way to get a quite usable sound (with a little tweaking). No complaints.
Julian ........thank you very much for your very straight to the point reviews. Can you tell me what software you use for measuring frequency and EQ ?.
Sold...bought one...could not be happier thankyou sir 😎👌 bought this mainly for micing up guitar cabs, tried it on a acoustic guitar, need to max out Gain input on your mixer as it is a dynamic mic, but records beautifuly, and even close up vocals, as its based on Shure;s unidine capsule (SM58, 57 etc, , gives great results. Love it!!!
I couldnt agree more, surely nothing that a good deessing can't solve. Still love this mic. On Guitar cab and on Woods sm57 still rules, but for vocals i prefer the behringer. To avoid sibilance at the source try to decenter your vocalist from the capsule with the mouth pointing at the side of the capsule. In addition you can try to step back the mic a Little bit from the source. PS Sorry for my band english.
Thanks, you've just sold me on the SM57. Even post EQ I still prefer it. The Behringer has a boominess that sort of resonates on certain low frequencies that I hate. It's most obvious on the recording of your voice. And the SM7 just sounds more appealing on the instruments. Probably just in my head.
Amazing job dude. Considering that you can get this mics to sound close enough, I think It would be very interesting If you could try to do this same thing, but instead of trying to mimic the SM57, try the SM7B!
FabFilter Pro-Q has an eq matching feature which can be used to either make 2 sources sound the same, or you can invert the values to give the sources more separation. Great video!
You literally saved me from countless hours of work.. Thank you. I take quena/bansuri recordings. Due to the nature of bambo flutes, the sound changes even with the most subtle change in angle or position of your mouth/lips. I had to work for hours to equalize different takes and layers into a single homogenous recording. I use fabfilter, but never heard of this feature. Dude, thank you very very much!
Moin, Moin Julian! First of all thanks for another killer review based on facts and full of in-depth info! I think you are correct. Mic choice is very subjective. With broad availability of modern production techniques, accessible to low-end manufacturers it becomes increasingly difficult making decisions on audio quality alone. However, while I do like Behringer equipment (taking cover fast) for my son's purposes (semi-professional use only) there is a difference to serious touring hardware; yes, you can buy five SL75Cs for the price of one SM57, but who wants to swap out gear mid-show or tour? That alone justifies the price of nearly indestructible gear like the SM57. On the other hand, the band of my 14 year old son would not be able to run 8 drum mics and (wireless IEMs) for example if they could only source pro gear from Shure, Sennheiser and the like. For them the entry gear lets them do things they would otherwise not be able to do at all. Danke nochmals und Gruesse aus Austin, TX!
I think this sums up the issue perfectly. Whilst I don't agree with the aggressive stance of Uli Behringer towards reviewers given honest feedback, cheap clones do allow many people to be creative and take their work to an audience. If you are recording in a pro studio, you'll have access to decent mics. If you're playing in a provincial bar/club, your sound will be very coloured by acoustics and in house PA and "sound engineer", the surgical precision eq curve comparisons will have much less of an impact on the overall sound, especially after a bit of eq. The increasing amount of cheap used gear and affordable clones/ new gear is allowing a lot of people to create and I've been hosting low key events to encourage artists out of their bedroom/garage studio's. I'm always impressed by the quality of the output. I've not yet had a clone or cheap pedal fail on me, from heavy gigging and used a SL75 for double tracking. With on caveat, cables, I'm not advocating replacing all your cables with Van Damme overnight, but always take a spare and multimeter/cable tester, this should keep you gigging.
Great video ! The main thing is what one likes, there are many alternatives out there, maybe some even like the Behringer over the Shure. I have the Shure myself, but i also have a few Behringer mics which are absolute bargains.
This has to be one of the absolute best reviews regardless of product. Danke schön, Herr Krause! Actually, the Behringer is now even more of a bargain with the eq settings: with $20-25, we get both the SL75C AND the SM57! 😇
I think it sounds close enough with EQ that it's worth considering. I'd be really interested in seeing a comparison between the Monoprice 600057 (aka the "Performance Dynamic Instrument Microphone") and Shure SM57, or even the Behringer. I'm curious to know if it's a straight copy of the Behringer design or if it actually sounds more similar to the SM57. It's a little more expensive at $28 but if the differences are tangible, it might be worth buying over the Behringer.
Although I like behringer products I'm still going to buy sm57s the money you save with the slc won't last you more than 1 day but the sm57 will last you a lifetime. Great review thank you.
Thank you for this video, awesome settings. Can you please let me know where to buy that pop filter you are using in your video? I really like it and since I have the Ms57 that will be amazing to gave, thank you
Hi Julian, your reviews are great ! you know exactly what to do and what measurement are needed, congratulations! I have a question: if i have a measurement microphone ( Beyerdynamic MM1) and his calibration file, can i make a measure and then the same thing with another microphone (for instance this SL75C) , then with a comparison make a calibration file for the Behringer ? Many Thanks
Can you please post the file with the exact frequency responce of the Microphones so we, that can not measure the frequency responce of mics, can do a more precise EQ with that program if we want more precision?. I need the frequency responce of this mic at least, and if measured from a Behringer UMC22 audio interface, the better. I would really apretiate that!
Guys, help. They say that sm57 is the same sm58, only without that "mesh", and behringer 75 is the same xm8500, only without "mesh". Can I use these settings from the video to get sm58 sound from my behringer xm8500?
@Julian - Good comparison. With the power of modern computers, DAWs, Digital EQ, and Modelling, how practical do you think it would be to just have one Mic that can be "Digitally modelled" into a variety of different models to suit different circumstances? Would it be better to do that pre-production or post-production? What Mic would be best suited to such an approach? I always look forward to your videos. Thanks
already have, but points of view about results comparing the single all sampling mic then digital modelled with a built in converter and the traditional plethora of classic analog mikes are discordant. srry 4 myeng
@@Iutub0ne_Genzore No problem with your English 😎. I had forgotten some of the details on Julian's earlier video "Turn your Shure SM57 into an SM7B with EQ!" Thanks for the reminder. I was wondering what he would recommend to use in Modelling other mics. Maybe it doesn't matter, as he was able to get pretty impressive results with just an SM57.
SMG did a comparison of the SM57 to a low cost alternative (I don't recall which one it was to be frank). His approach had some similarities, but some differences too...he referred to one mic as Mic A and the other as Mic B in all the tests as he wanted to test the water; what microphone did the viewers think was the genuine article versus the alternative. He revealed which microphone was which in a subsequent video. It was very clear people could hear the differences, but many people believed the clone was the real thing and vice-versa. I actually like the sound of both microphones; they are very different, but I think using one of each to mic a guitar cab could get some very interesting tones.
These EQ settings are wonderful. It turned my Behringer SL75C from "quite a good mic for it's price" to the biggest steal I ever made! This thing costs $20! It's insane! Your knowledge and hard work you're putting into these videos is really priceless
The SM57 sounds way clearer. Even after the EQ. Almost stereo (?) I could totally see using the SL75 in a scenario where I needed another mic, but now I’m sold on Shure..
What kind of processing were you running the voice over for this video? Dry, compensated eq, something different, or a blend of compensated eq with a few other things?
we have a lot of Chinese SM57 copies here in Thailand which are actually sold in very well copied SM57 boxes. most of hem are very bass heavy up to +12dB.
@@JulianKrause Fantastic! On top of hearing it side by side with a scarlett 2i2 and much preferring the Tascam, the fact that the drivers are done in-house and the buffer size is stable down to 4 samples, the latency should be almost immeasurable. Still wish it was USB3.0 or Thunderbolt 3, but it seems like it's got a lot going for it :)
omg i researched like a maniac for a pop-filter/mic-clip combo like that. sadly i just found one that was too small for my sm57. can you tell me which one you're using and where to get it? 😅

I think the SM57 fits my bass guitar more, sounds darker. That being said I'll buy two SL75.
the madlad
I always use a DI for the bass, feel like it gets more of that low low end
If you do, try a little dot sticker on the grills.
As soon as I heard the EQ comparison I rushed to buy three SL75 Cs really saved me a ton of money.
Did you tell the guy at the counter "shut up and take my money"...., like I'm about to do 🤣
Amazing EQ-ing. They sound almost identical after adjusting. Very interesting video, thanks
Most people seem to be saying that the SM57 is the better audio product, but to me with the eq adjustment both sound as if the amp has a blanket over it. If my Sennheiser ever needs replacing I'll take a look at the behringer.

These EQ settings are wonderful. It turned my Behringer SL75C from "quite a good mic for it's price" to the biggest steal I ever made! This thing costs $20! It's insane! Your knowledge and hard work you're putting into these videos is really priceless
The SM57 sounds way clearer. Even after the EQ. Almost stereo (?) I could totally see using the SL75 in a scenario where I needed another mic, but now I’m sold on Shure..
Julian - could you please tell me which Mic-Holder / Pop-filter you are using? I would like to buy it! Daaaaanke Schön in advance 😉
Any chance you could do a review of the Mackie Big Knob Studio?
Add a little more bass to the SL75 and it's pretty much there!
What mike stand and pop filter is this? Looks very neat compared with the long necked variants.
SMART...90% close...thankyou
What kind of processing were you running the voice over for this video? Dry, compensated eq, something different, or a blend of compensated eq with a few other things?
Wait a minute...can you now add the EQ that makes the SM57 sound like the SM7B to the SL75 C with very similar results ?
we have a lot of Chinese SM57 copies here in Thailand which are actually sold in very well copied SM57 boxes. most of hem are very bass heavy up to +12dB.
I do not know if I want to make SL 75C sound like SB75 :) I really prefer SL 75C sound. Thanks for showing this!
I'll watch/comment on all these videos just so you might review the Tascam 208i, lol. Regardless, I do really enjoy your videos :)
Duely noted :) The Tascam interfaces are on my todo list, though not very much at the top. Cheers!
@@JulianKrause Fantastic! On top of hearing it side by side with a scarlett 2i2 and much preferring the Tascam, the fact that the drivers are done in-house and the buffer size is stable down to 4 samples, the latency should be almost immeasurable. Still wish it was USB3.0 or Thunderbolt 3, but it seems like it's got a lot going for it :)
omg i researched like a maniac for a pop-filter/mic-clip combo like that. sadly i just found one that was too small for my sm57. can you tell me which one you're using and where to get it? 😅
Genius!
Would you recommend the 57 for pro vocal recording
