Shure MV7X Microphone - XLR Only Pro Quality Dynamic Mic for Podcasting & Vocal Recording, Voice-Isolating Technology, All Metal Construction, Mic Stand Compatible, Optimized Frequency - Black

I want to marry this mic and have little babies… named Mike…. But besides that, it’s the best mic I’ve ever owned. I love how it makes my voice sound. I love how clear and crisp it is. Background noise, gone! Now to be fair , I’ve only owed a few microphones before. But this is worlds ahead of any other condenser mics I’ve used. Or cardioid or whatever they’re called. Love this mic!!

This mic is great! Sound is clear and it’s very sensitive. The size is perfect! Not too big or small. I’ve even dropped it a few times and it still works perfect. Very portable and easy to set up. Never had any issues with connection either.

I did extensive research on mic options, and this one was the best value and performance. After only using it for one session, I know for sure now that I picked a great professional-grade one choosing this mic! The quality and clarity is profoundly better than the cost-effective options. You won't be disappointed!*If you couple this with the Focusrite Scarlett audio interface, your "beginner set" will not compromise quality for cost, and will be easily upgradeable if you want to integrate and invest in expensive components in the future (not that you will need to!).

Once again, Shure has made a great mic. Why is this great? It's great for what it doesn't pick up, like most everything outside of my voice! Of course I have other mics, but I'm keeping this one close. This doesn't have the bass fullness of the SM7B, but add a little EQ and it's fine, or just use it as-is. The internal microphone capsule is isolated from the body, so brushing the body with your fingers, or moving the boom or stand won't get noise into your audio. It has quality materials, as you'd expect. If you can't acoustically treat the space you are using, this is the perfect mic.

works just as good as my sm7 save your money!

Great microphone with high-quality sound! Perfect for streaming or just chatting with friends while gaming. Clear audio and easy to use.

I’m using the Shure MV7X primarily for podcasting, YouTube, Discord, and gaming.I have this microphone plugged into a Focusrite Scarlett 4th Gen interface (since it’s XLR, you’ll need an interface to use it). From there, it’s basically plug-and-play. I’ve been an audio engineer for 10 years, and honestly, this is one of the best budget-friendly “talking” mics I’ve come across for voice work.Even in an untreated room, it sounds amazing—crisp, professional, and way more polished than I expected. I regularly use it for recording videos, podcasting, and chatting on Discord, and the quality is so good it feels like I’m working in a treated studio.To get the best results, I use EqualizerAPO to adjust the EQ, compression, and noise gate. You don’t have to do this, but every voice is different, so a little tweaking helps bring out the mic’s full potential. The noise gate, in particular, is a lifesaver for blocking out keyboard clicks or other random noises. Plus, the cardioid pattern (directional audio) is excellent—it only picks up what’s directly in front of it and ignores everything else.Straight out of the box, this mic already sounds professional. But with a bit of fine-tuning, it can really shine. I have mine on a desktop stand, and it works perfectly for my setup.If you’re looking for a high-quality mic for podcasts, YouTube, or gaming, I’d 100% recommend the Shure MV7X. It’s affordable, easy to use, and punches well above its weight in terms of sound quality.

Great Mic wish it had direct monitoring tho
