Why do you need different types of microphones?

You need different types of microphones for different types of sound sources. For example, for a bass drum, you would need a microphone with the ability to catch low-frequency sound waves. For tom-toms or a snare drum, you need microphones that can pick up very loud (high SPL) sounds. For choirs, you need microphones with very large pick-up patterns. You need smaller microphones to be discreet. Vocal microphones onstage need to have excellent rear-rejection to help eliminate the risk of feedback from the mains or monitors.For live situations, omnidirectional microphones are not suitable because of the risk of feedback. Whereas with recording, different pick-up patterns can be more safely used.Most microphones (other than the Shure SM57 or similar mics) have a specific use that the mic is best suited for.
