Shure MV7i Smart Microphone + InterfaceSave time, money, and space with the Shure MV7i Smart Microphone + Interface, which combines a legendary dynamic USB-C microphone with a built-in audio interface, bringing podcasters, streamers, and content creators two-channel recording capabilities in a flexible, streamlined package. The mic chassis features a flexible combo XLR-1/4" input that can handle microphones, instruments, and line-level signals and record it to your computer while also capturing your voice using the famous, podcast-friendly dynamic capsule based on the SM7B microphone. This allows a singer-songwriter or a singer and instrumentalist to record their vocals and an electric guitar or keyboard at the same time. Alternatively, you can plug in your favorite mic for a podcasting guest, musical duet, or acoustic instrument. The XLR input offers 48V phantom power for condenser microphones, while the preamp provides up to 60 dB of gain—enough to accommodate many low-output dynamic mics. Legendary Broadcast Sound The mic takes its design and sonic cues from the Shure SM7B, a classic used on countless podcasts and radio broadcasts. Use the mic in close proximity to your voice, and you'll find it exhibits a clear, intelligible, and high-quality sound. The frequency response is optimized for a rich and natural vocal reproduction. The MV7i is also very well suited to vocalists and musicians, handling SPLs up to 128 dB and delivering a wide 50 Hz to 16 kHz frequency response. The mic features a unidirectional cardioid polar pattern, which is the best natural defense against room noise: since the capsule mostly captures what's directly in front of it, you won't pickup as much room noise as you would with an omnidirectional mic. Depending on your particular room, you may still need a little room treatment, or use the mic's noise-reduction software, to address issues such as your computer's hum or your air conditioner—but the chances of that are markedly lower with a cardioid polar pattern. Rugged Appointments, Integrated Controls, and High-Quality USB Audio The included foam windscreen features an air gap for improved protection against plosives and p-pops, greatly simplifying your editing process. With its built-in ready-to-mount yoke, the mic offers a build quality that is rugged, with an all-metal construction for reliability in mission-critical circumstances. The mic offers a headphone jack for monitoring. Just plug a pair of headphones into the MV7i's 3.5mm jack, and you'll be able to listen to your high-quality audio in all its glory. Mix your mic output and system audio playback levels individually with dedicated sliders in the MOTIV Mix desktop app. On the USB side, the mic provides broadcast-quality specs and intuitive functionality. Capture audio at sample rates and resolutions up to 48 kHz / 24-bit, which is the standard for editing and mixing broadcast audio. Use the integrated touch-panel interface on the mic itself to control levels, headphone volumes, monitor mix, and mic-mute.
