The Shure MV7+ Podcast Mic, styled here in black, makes getting a professional podcast sound easier than ever. Like the original MV7, the MV7+ is a high-quality, broadcast-style dynamic microphone that delivers a clear and present sound and features both a conventional XLR connection and a USB port, allowing you to use it with audio interfaces, mixers, hard disk recorders, or direct to computers and mobile devices. But this updated "+" version adds several key features to improve your podcasting experience, including a customizable full-color LED touch panel with metering, improved DSP functions for better sound quality with less noise, 3 reverb options, a USB-C connector, and deep integration with Shure's MOTIV Mix software for complete control over a wide range of sound-sculpting parameters.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is there an audio recorder that allows you to record 2 MV7s at the same time via the usb chords?

A: Currently there are no devices that would accept connections from multiple Shure MV7 Podcast Microphones using their USB outputs.

Q: 2. If I use rechargeable batteries will they recharge in the unit or do I need a separate battery charger?

A: You will need to get a separate charger. Batteries cannot be recharged inside the recorder.

Q: 3. Is the USB bidirectional - e.g. can I hear other participants on ZOOM using just this device ? (I normally use an RME firewire Interface with 2 way audio and XLR mics)

A: Yes, the USB interface is bidirectional. When you set up the mic with your computer, select the MV7 as your audio input and audio output device in your computer's system preferences, and then you will be able to hear the audio with the other participants in your Zoom meeting when monitoring through the mic's headphone jack.

Q: 4. Hi. The official website of Shure says that the lower frequency of MV7 is 20hz, and here on BH product description says 50hz. What's the right information ? Thank you

A: Thank you for this valuable insight. We wil be updating our webpage shortly.

Q: 5. Is there international warranty for the MV7?

A: Yes, the Shure MV7 Podcast Microphone has a two-year limited warranty from Shure.

Q: 6. is there a shock mount that will work with the MV7? and what is the best pop filter to use with it?

A: The MV7 has a built-in shock mount as well as a built-in pop filter so a separate shock mount and pop filter are not necessary. The mic's yoke mount can be attached directly to a studio arm or standard mic stand. The studio arm may provide better isolation. Like the SM7b which also has a built-in shock mount, the MV7 is not designed to be used with a separate shock mount. Although there is a built-in pop filter, i is possible to add a separate pop filter such as the Auray PFSS-55 Pop Filter with Gooseneck and Springloaded Clamp (B&H # AUPFSS55). The springloaded clamp makes it easy to attach to the mic's yoke mount or a studio arm or stand. You can find a variety of other compatible pop filters listed under the "Accessories" tab on the MV7 item page.

Q: 7. Will this still need a cloudlifter?

A: Not necessary tho recommended. Providing the subject is at good volume and the room is very quiet, THe Zoom P4 will provide enough gain (70dB). Other Mic Pre-amps do provide 80 or more dB of gain. The Cloudlifter (B&H # CLCL1) provides more the only higher gain; it also improves mic performance, by lowering noise floor and matching impedance, which may lower distortion.

Q: 8. Just bought the MV7 - is it safe/recommended to just leave it plugged in to my PC's USB and be on at all times? Or should I plug/unplug as needed? Does it matter?

A: Yes, you can leave the Shure MV7 Podcast Microphone connected to your computer at all times without causing damage to the mic or computer.

Q: 9. How does this mic compare to something like the Blue Yeti Pro?

A: There is no comparison, the Yeti Pro has 3 capsules and can be used for Mono or Stereo applications, the MV7 is a podcast microphone , with a single cardioid voice coil, and the output is Mono only.

Q: 10. I need to have a 3.5 mm connection (to a camera). What cable/adapter do I need?

A: While it is possible to connect this mic to the 3.5mm input on a camera with this cable, BH #KOXRSM06B, the preamp of the camera would not do a great job of amplifying the signal and could introduction unwanted noise into the recording. We would recommend using a mixer/ recorder in between the mic and camera to give you a stronger mic preamp for a cleaner signal into the camera. Here's a recommendation, BH# TADR60DMKIIK.
