Podcasting or recording on a budget, but still only trust Shure? The MV7X has been designed with podcasters and vocalists in mind, using the same form factor immortalized by our legendary SM7B. Connect directly to almost any audio interface via XLR and you'll soon be recording with the quality audio that you've come to expect from Shure. A no-hassle, no-frills MV7, that you can rely on. Legendary Broadcast Sound The mic takes its design and sonic cues from the Shure SM7B, a classic used on countless podcasts and radio broadcasts. Use the mic in close proximity to your voice and you'll find it exhibits a clear, intelligible, and high-quality sound with a frequency response optimized for rich and natural vocal reproduction. Works with XLR Inputs, No Power Required Outfitted with a traditional XLR 3-pin output, the MV7X can connected to any XLR mic input, whether it's on an audio interface, an external mic preamp, or a mixer. No power source is required for the MV7X because it is a dynamic microphone, so forget about needing to engage phantom power like you would for a condenser mic. Rugged Appointments for Sound and Use Like the SM7B, the MV7 has a built-in pop filter to protect against plosives and p-pops, greatly simplifying your editing process. With its integrated ready-to-mount yoke with 5/8" threading, the mic offers a build quality that is rugged, with an all-metal construction for reliability in mission-critical circumstances.
