Product Description
Shure MV7 Podcast Microphone
Inspired by the legendary SM7B, the MV7 is a dynamic microphone with both USB and XLR outputs for use with computers and professional interfaces alike. Connect via USB and explore additional set-up features and Auto Level Mode within our ShurePlus™ MOTIV app, to control your vocal tone, and distance from the microphone. With Auto Level Mode, you can let the microphone do the work for you.
How it Works
We get it, not everybody is lucky enough to record in sound-treated studio, so the MV7 is equipped with Voice Isolation Technology so it’s laser-focused on your voice to give you a professional recording, without any background or room noise. Once recording, use the built-in 3.5mm headphone jack to monitor your sound and adjust mic gain, headphone volume, monitor mix and more using the built-in touch panel.
Don’t let the USB connection fool you; the MV7 is a professional dynamic microphone that is compatible with all professional interfaces via XLR if you’re recording in the studio.
Why it's Better
Let Your Microphone Do The Work For You
If connected via USB, download our free ShurePlus™ MOTIV app for desktop, which gives you access to additional features on your MV7. Activate Auto Level Mode, select your preferred voice tone and distance from the microphone, and let the microphone adjust your level in real time for a consistent output, no matter if you’re recording or live streaming. Choose Manual Mode to have full control over your sound and adjust Mic Gain, Monitor Mix, EQ, Limiter, Compressor and more. With your level being constantly adjusted by the microphone to keep your sound consistent, you can spend more time creating, and less time editing. Let your microphone do the work for you.
