Great microphone, I used it for classical guitar
It works great for classical guitar. I thought it had failed when it became intermittent, and it turned out it was an oxidized xlr input on my mixing board that needed cleaning. Great mic!

Sonido neutral y claro
Excelente microfono. Si lo combinas con un filtro antipop que se compra aparte y el windscreen incluido, es un excelente microfono vocal para entornos no tratados acusticamente.

A wonderful recording mic!
The SM-81 has been around for decades, and I used it back in the 1990s, so I considered it for a large recording project at my church. But it's been around for decades ... surely there must be something newer that costs about the same but sounds better? Well, in a word, no, I found nothing better in its price range (under $400). I brought in five different mics (from a vendor that accepts returns with no restocking fees), and placed them all among the string players, the choir, the soloists, and the organ. The recording was digital, with 96 kHz sampling and 24-bit resolution. Then came two weeks of listening and editing. Guess what? The SM-81 mics were the most neutral (that's a very GOOD thing!), the most musical, the least distorted sounding mics of the group. Their sound pickup off-axis (where many mics add unwanted coloratio) was essentially indistinguishable from the straight-ahead sound. Wonderful! Since that project, we have bought 2 more SM-81s, and they continue to help us make beautiful recordings.
