In this video, Austin dives into dissecting the classic Shure SM7B microphone. The SM7B is one of the most popular microphones of all time because it does a good job of rejecting background noise, suppressing reverb from untreated rooms, and rejecting signal from around the capsule. However, the SM7B has a few MAJOR drawbacks, and in this video we discuss those, and give you a mic recommendation to replace the SM7B! Can the Lauten Audio LS-208 do everything the SM7B do but with a better frequency response? Watch to find out!
