Shure SM7B dynamic microphone for vocals and speech
In close-talk recording, you want a microphone that captures voice naturally while keeping unwanted noise out of the take. The Shure SM7B is a cardioid dynamic microphone with a flat, wide-range frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz, made for studio, vocals, radio and voice-over work. That combination delivers clear, natural reproduction of both music and speech, with the warm and even sound the SM7B is known for.
The cardioid polar pattern focuses on sound from the front and helps reject off-axis sound with minimal coloration. This makes the Shure SM7B a strong choice for close-proximity applications such as radio presentation, TV voice-over and vocal recording.
Sound shaping and reduced interference
The Shure SM7B includes selectable response settings with bass roll-off and a midrange presence boost, along with a graphic display of the chosen setting. This lets you tailor the frequency response to speech or singing without losing the microphone’s core character.
One of the key strengths of this vocal microphone is its improved rejection of electromagnetic hum and noise, optimized for broadband interference from computer monitors. If you work close to a screen, the SM7B helps keep unwanted interference out of your signal.
Built for studio and broadcast use
Internal air suspension shock isolation removes virtually all transfer of mechanical noise, while the highly effective pop filter often makes extra protection against breath and plosive sounds unnecessary. The included A7WS detachable windscreen is designed to reduce plosives further and gives a warmer sound in close-talk vocal use.
With its yoke mounting and stand nut, the Shure SM7B is easy to position accurately and remove when needed. The rugged construction, 765 g weight and protected housing make it a reliable studio microphone for intensive use; at Magna Music you can also get personal advice from staff who work with studio and live gear themselves.
