Shure SM7B Microphone
The Shure SM7B is the legendary dynamic microphone for broadcast, podcasting, and studio recording. It delivers warm, clear sound reproduction with a smooth, wide-range frequency response from 50 Hz to 20 kHz and a classic cardioid pattern that reliably rejects unwanted ambient noise. The built-in air suspension shock isolation and internal pop filter minimize handling noise and plosives, while high-quality electromagnetic shielding effectively suppresses hum from studio monitors and other equipment. Switchable bass roll-off and presence boost let you flexibly tailor the tonal character to voice or instrument. For optimal levels, Shure recommends a preamp with at least 60 dB of gain.
