Hello Andy, It would be useful if you provided the youtube link rather than a send space link. As I don’t have a send space account it demands I sign up.
Just a note about the Shure mics be very careful with them. There are a lot of counterfeit versions. See this link: https://www.liveabout.com/spotting-a-fake-shure-microphone-1817723 As for the best mic. There is no such thing as the best mic. Because you would need the best pub as well. Every room is different, you add or take a chair away from that room or another person enters and the acoustics change. It really is down to price point. There are dedicated mics for drums, guitars etc. It also depends upon how much post processing you want to do. You need very good pre-amps that done’t introduce noise. Dynamic mics tend to give a low output so you have to crank up the pre-amp and the more you do that the more hiss and other noises are introduced into the recording. However, using a noise gate most of this is removed.
