The important point is not if the mic is
condenser or dynamic,
but if it is designed for on-stage vocals or not.
Most condensors are 'studio' mics, they also tend to be more
sensitive to handling noise and environmental conditions (in
particular humidity and air currents).
Yours is explicitly advertised as a 'studio mic'.
Ok, so basically your saying I should rather forget about it and get a
second SM58 (or something like that)?
