Shure MV7X Podcast XLR Microphone
Inspired by Shure’s legendary broadcast microphone
Shure legendary SM7B broadcast microphone inspired the Shure MV7. Aside from being heard on classic records from Michael Jackson, John Mayer, and countless others, the Shure SM7B has enjoyed a run as the hottest podcast microphone on the planet. You’ve come to know the sound by watching hit interview-style podcasts on YouTube, listening to hot takes on sports, and tuning into your favorite true crime podcast. There’s only one problem — using an SM7B requires hundreds of dollars on other gear to be used. But with the MV7, you get the classic broadcast sound you know and love without all the hassle. Plug directly into your computer via the integrated USB output, and let the microphone do the work.
Sounding good has never been this easy
The MV7 is designed to make it easy to get a great take. It has touch controls that control both gain and headphone monitoring with a tap of your finger. The MV7 effectively rejects background and room noise, so even untreated bedrooms and small apartment closets can sound like isolation booths. The mic also has Auto Level Mode (USB only) that actively adjusts your compression and gain settings to ensure your signal stays consistent for your listeners.
Use ShurePlus MOTIV Desktop for greater control
With the ShurePlus MOTIV desktop app, you get access to Shure’s extensive DSP control. Inside the app, you can choose from a selection of EQ presets or dial in a custom EQ preset for your voice. You can also save your own presets for compression and enable auto gain. The ShurePlus MOTIV app also makes recording easy — no matter what device you’re using. The interface is simple yet effective, editing is remarkably fast and intuitive, and you get full 24-bit/48kHz digital resolution. Plus, its compatibility with Dropbox and other export options streamlines the rest of your creative process.
MOTIV Video app records uncompressed audio for video
Available to all MOTIV users, the MOTIV Video app is your one-stop solution for premium video and audio captures. It features all the MOTIV audio app’s functionality, including gain control, EQ, and compression. On-screen audio metering helps you keep signal levels in the optimum range, and you can choose from WAV, AAC, or ALAC audio formats. And depending on your device, you can select 720p, 1080p, or even 4k video resolutions.
Built for a lifetime of use
Like all Shure microphones, the MV7 is built to stand the test of time. Its durable all-metal construction will withstand its fair share of bumps and bruises in the studio. It has a sturdy yoke that gives you almost 360 degrees of movement so you can place it perfectly each time. The robust close-talk windscreen helps deaden plosives and cut down on the harshness of your fricatives. Whether you use it for a year or a lifetime, you’ll enjoy the MV7’s excellent sound.
