The Shure BLX2/SM58-S8 Handheld Transmitter is a wireless microphone perfect for vocalists who want the freedom to move on stage without being restricted by cables. It features the renowned SM58 dynamic microphone capsule, which is the industry standard for live vocal reproduction. With the reliable BLX2 handheld transmitter, you can use the SM58 with any Shure analogue wireless system that uses the S8 frequency configuration.
The microphone has the iconic Shure SM58 capsule but is equipped with a BLX transmitter specifically designed for use with BLX wireless systems. The SM58 is a versatile cardioid dynamic microphone that delivers warm and clear vocal reproduction. Its shock-absorbing grille is designed to dent upon impact, protecting the cartridge and ensuring reliable performance. Calculated porting within the capsule creates a uniformed cardioid polar pattern across the frequency range, resulting in maximum gain-before-feedback. An adhesive compound secures the transformer, preventing moisture and temperature changes, and producing an airtight chamber for proper shock mounting and low-end frequency response. The SM58 also has a built-in spherical filter that minimizes wind breath and vocal pop noises.
The cardioid pickup pattern of the SM58 isolates the main sound source while minimizing unwanted background and handling noise. With its durability and quality, the SM58 has been used by renowned artists such as Henry Rollins, Patti Smith, Sheryl Crow, Cage The Elephant, and The Derek Trucks Band. Notably, The Derek Trucks Band even flattened the microphone under their tour bus, but it still remained functional. The microphone offers durable construction with a refined shock-mount system, ensuring consistent performance both indoors and outdoors.
The Shure BLX2/SM58-S8 Handheld Transmitter has a range of features, including a 100m operating range, power and battery status LED, adjustable gain control, and easy frequency matching. It has a battery life of up to 14 hours and a lightweight and robust construction. The transmitter weight is 218g, and its dimensions are 224mm x 53mm x 53mm.
