Modern iteration of the Shure SM7B
A modern iteration of the Shure SM7B dynamic speech and vocal microphone, the Shure SM7dB features a winning combination of a cardioid polar pattern and an active preamp – the latter also means it has enough clean gain to be hooked up to a computer with any simple interface, so it's ready for recording and streaming almost out of the box. Sound and volume settings can be optimised courtesy of the control options on the back of the SM7dB, while the bracket mount allows the microphone to be mounted on any microphone arm and aligned with the sound source. These intuitive features combine to make the Shure SM7dB into the perfect microphone for professional applications.

With an integrated preamp...
The Shure SM7dB's integrated preamp provides a selectable preamp gain boost of either +18dB or +24dB, which can be set on the back of the microphone, to deliver the level most suitable for a variety of recording and broadcasting applications. The broad and largely linear frequency range of 50Hz to 20kHz ensures precise sound reproduction, which also enables both instruments and electric guitar amplifiers to be miked to optimum effect. The preamp bypass switch on the back of the microphone can also be used to deactivate the preamp – this is a new addition to this version, for users wishing to revert to the traditional sound of the SM7B microphone. There are also switches to activate bass roll-off and increase mid-range frequencies, boosting presence for greater vocal clarity.

...for first-rate recordings
The Shure SM7dB is a great choice for simple setups that will allow speakers and singers alike to focus fully on their performance. But this high-tech dynamic microphone also features electromagnetic shielding against the broadband interference emitted by computer screens, and first-rate hum compensation for interference-free recordings. The low inherent noise produced by the SM7dB will also contribute to accurate recordings, and further interference in the form of impact noise or plosive sounds in the signal is also effectively prevented courtesy of the pop filter and pneumatic shock absorber. The microphone's rugged construction and effectively protected microphone capsule guarantee outstanding reliability and long-term use, adding the perfect finishing touches to this classic design.

About Shure
The American company Shure began developing microphones during the early 1930s and is one of the pioneers of the audio engineering sector. Models such as the 55 Unidyne - known to many as the "Elvis microphone" - and the SM57 and SM58 which appeared in the mid-1960s are still ubiquitous in live sound production today. They enjoy cult status among musicians and technicians alike. In the 1990s, Shure introduced the first wireless microphones and in-ear monitoring systems and became a market leader in this field. In addition to microphones, Shure offers a wide range of earphones and headphones for studio and live use, as well as various accessories.
Easy mounting for flexible applications
In addition to a pop filter, the Shure SM7dB also ships with a brass reducing thread, which is used to mount the 20.6cm-long mic on a suitable boom arm. This adapter can be tightened using any standard screwdriver, or even just a coin. The microphone should then be directed at the sound source at a distance of between 2.54cm and 15cm, depending on the desired proximity effect. Where necessary, the microphone bracket mount can also be removed, so the mic can be mounted on a conventional microphone stand (and then realigned accordingly so that the switches on the back of the microphone can be read the right way up). Users can also purchase the optional Shure A7WS foam windscreen, if they want more protection than the pop screen included here can offer.
