Am I the only person that heard white noise with the Shure Sm7db?
@Marco_My_Words8 ай бұрын
I also noticed the white noise. The amplifier of the SM7dB might not be the top choice. It could either be due to suboptimal optimization of the amp, or perhaps the video creator didn't adjust the EQ settings correctly to minimize noise on the SM7dB. He might have more experience with the SM7B, leading to better configurations for that model. It's unclear whether he operated it with neutral settings and without any effects, but I suspect that's not the case.

I had an opportunity to test both side by side. In my opinion, the SM7B is definately better. Not that the MV7 is bad, it is sounds good. Just not quite as good as the SM7B.

This is a very informative video! Quick question however, so the SM7dB has the built in preamp, so does that mean it hooks up via USB? I would like to use it for streaming and videos but I would like to know what else I will need to buy in order to use the mic. Ive been thinking about going all out on a new Mic so I appreciate this video!

Nope - still XLR only. I'd recommend getting a used MV7x ($120-130) and then an Elgato Wave XLR which not only provides the connection but also a suite of mixing options. Good luck!
@retrogemcollector10 ай бұрын
Sadly I have to disagree with your statement on the necessity of a booster for the old SM7B. The majority of the new interface released in 2023 had above the 65db of gain. That statement of “you need a cloud lifter “ is a thing of the past.

@MichaelW1980randoms7 ай бұрын
I got myself a Shure Beta 58A with an A58WS wind shield and an A55M mount. And since I did, I never again thought about the SM7B. It has a too big wind shield (because only the bigger one that comes in the SM7B‘ box is the only one that really works. It is too expensive, though I don’t agree with the notion, that a Fethead or Cloudlifter is always needed, unless one chooses the wrong audio interface. It’s also weighs way less, which makes it usable with a lot of microphone stands, that wouldn’t be able to hold the heavy SM7B. Also, the Beta 58A has less self noise than the SM7B and requires so little gain, that most audio interfaces will be able to drive it on a reasonable distance. As for the MV7: it pretty much needs either pristine microphone technique or the bigger wind shield of the SM7B, which makes it just as big.

The SM7B looks the best, but is a power hungry monster at an inflated price. With the must-have of a lifter, it’s downright ridiculous. Looks don’t justify the investment there. IF looks don’t matter as much, but quality is paramount, I’ll always choose the ElectroVoice RE20 over the SM7B. Could be some bias here; I’ve been using the RE20 since the ‘90’s while on-air at various radio stations. I do, however, use the MV7X for various social media recordings.
