How much do you love your SM7B?
I love my shure but it sounds a little bit to muddie , maybe because of my voice or my interface
It’ll sound muddy if you a cloud lifter on it, for the simple reason the cloud lifter will boost the bass in your vocals, as without the cloud lifter you’ll have a more clearer but maybe quieter sound slightly.
So much, thanks
i use my SM7B for live streaming and music creation and it excels in every field! i will say though, if you cant afford an SM7B then the Rode Podmic is the best contender for the microphone coming in at only $100 USD
@@thenewgamers7382 you. An eq that out tho
Great video, and very informative! I just bought a Shure SM7B, SE DM1 Dynamite Inline Preamp, and a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen. Audio Interface. I can’t wait to start recording! Thanks for the tips!
how’d it go
@@ticklemytipp Ayo Quandale what you doing on here 💀
I bought the mic booster with your link. Hopefully, you get some kickback. I dont like buying directly from amazon, so I looked up the product on RUclips, and you are the only one with a link that popped up in the first 10 videos. I enjoyed your video as well!
such a complete and professional video thanks a lot ! You deserve more views
Thank you for explaining the buttons on the back! I never even messed with them before, I love the sm7b but I feel like I’m there’s even more to unlock!
Hey dude, I clicked on your links and now my Amazon page is in Spanish. What in the world !
Seriously???
I,m from india and i want to buy shure sm7b your video is very very nice.....you explained every single point .....thanks for making this beautiful video
GREAT VIDEO
the version you may have is the SM7 or the SM7A as you said you got it 5 years. so most likey you have the 1973 SM7 or the 1999 SM7A as im looking at the date of this video. so this version is the updated version that is the SM7b 3 diff models SM7,SM7A,SM7b hope this helps
Well Done!
Great vid and very informative! Thanks man!
Keep up the great work, man.
i have the same mic but for some reason the sound only comes out of my left ear piece on my headset. its weird.
Nice thank you!
Great video! Thank you :)
Great insight.
Thank you for your video but I have a question. When you inquire about the setup to buy to operate an SM7B, there is very often the answer: a Cloudlifter amplifier and a Scarlett solo. My question is: Does the Elgato Wave XLR replace these two elements and does the job better or worse? Because I love the design of the Elgato Wave XLR but I prefer quality.
Thanks !
You can use the SM7B direct into your Scarlett studio i.e. mic to amp device via an XLR connection. It does not need the 78v phantom power to work but if you feel a need to use it you can turn it on on the Scarlett solo.
I never do and my audios are always as clear as I need them to be.
hello very nice review. I have a qeustion
I bought a shure SM7B from someone. The products looks legit (weight, look, serial number, etc). But in the manual, somewhere, the word microphone is not write correctly.. it is (microphoen). This is a mistake on all manuals or do I have a fake product?
It also does not have the Shure TradeMark logo on the back of the microphone!?
your product looks like mine. You know for sure it is original?
Hi , what interface you use for it and what you offer ?
Just got my mic today! Thanks man! Great info! I'm using the Focusrite interface right now. Do you think it's strong enough to power this mic or do I need to upgrade when possible?
It is a great mic and will work with your Focusrite.
That alone is a powerful combination that I use and love.
Hey. Don't you think the newer one is fake?
I don’t think so. I actually like the way the newer one sounds. It came in the same legit box with stickers and stuff. It did cross my mind in very beginning shortly after opening it. But after several uses, I really do like it better.
@@LoKnows methinks the original one is the knock-off... hope I'm wrong though & neither one is fake
I normally use a Triton Audio FetHead in-Line microphone preamp for the extra gain.
And how is that I also have a fethead im waiting for my sm7b to come in the mail
@@AprilSamurai it’s perfect 👍🏽 bro
What free audio software should i use? I am using a Legion Lenovo laptop
are you syncing the video and the sound? or recorded it straight from the camera using the Shure sm7b? I just want to connect my DSLR camera to Shure sm7b without having to record two separate tracks and putting them together in post? what do I need?
I’m using syncing 2 separate tracks but what your saying is a really good idea. Here’s I video I did that does what you are asking just not with the camera but it follows the same idea, just connect the final wire to the camera.

@@LoKnows Thanks! is maonacaster works the same with zoom h6 too?
@@endaguimol1040 yes. It will work with any device that has a line/mic in.
@@LoKnows No, it actually requires a Line out which mostly comes with handy recorders to record xlr mic with good quality and levels straight to camera, you can´t plug the input to the input that´s nonsense
yo im late, but do you think if i use some acoustic foams around my room, the audio will be stronger?
i normally want my keyboard to be more quieter in videos and idk if acoustic foams fix that issue
does the focusrite 2i2 the same job as the other audio interfaces?
what are the sticky rubber strips used for?
u only use phantom power if u got cloudlifter ?
how much gain need sm7b (with cloudlifter) ? 20db ? 30db ?
I think you need to find out what your preference is. And what matches your voice. But keep it balanced with your audio interface :)
That depends on your audio interface, if it has only 50dB of gain you need additional 10+ extra gain, SM7B is sensitive from -60dB of gain, so 60 and more
How do I get the hissing to go away? I have a CM1 mic booster. And focus right interface, and still I hear a loud hissing that interrupt my recordings.
Great video Lo. Any chance, do you know where I can get a lead horse? Lol jk. Cheers.
When i touch the mic or the arm you hear that in the audio, that doesnt seem the case with you, how so?
Sm7b it is ok to use in live band?
I cant seem to find that refresh anywhere
What kind of audio interface is that??
i feel like i need someone to help my fine tune this type of mic when i eventually order it because even after watching this, id have no idea how to tweak with the audio settings, id find a way to make this mic sound like a $30 xbox 360 bluetooth mic lol
So what is up on the bigger size of new model? Any changes? Thanks.
It’s actually the same exact size. I thought it was bigger, maybe it was the lighting. The only difference was the sticker and maybe the texture of the finish. Although I think this refreshed version, if that’s what it is, sounds a bit brighter to me. I like it!!!
@@LoKnows thanks Lo. With mine, I have a sort of ground buzz when used with a Cloudlifter, and DBX 286S. Any idea of what could be causing that? Touching the cloudlifter is when it happens.
@@bribrindo9332 what interface is it being routed into? And is the interface plugged into a powered USB or directly into the computer?
@@LoKnows I just got mine and it had the same sticker, was so confused until I saw this. I think the older look is cleaner
@@LoKnows have you tried the newer model with the Audient? The difference could be the preamps + mic activator
iD4Mk2 or GoXLR mini? What do u think is the better one for the SM7B?
goxlr mini
I would love that mic gosh but it's 7k in Capetown
Whaaat
its only 400 dollars in the us 👁👄👁
I bought the SM7B and the Elgato Wave XLR, do I need that cloudlifter?
No, the Wave XLR is made to where you don't need the Cloudlifter. If you watch Alpha Gaming's video on the Wave XLR, he explains it there.
@mondipie Well most interfaces doesn´t go above 50 Db of gain that´s why
More so recommended with people with focusrite interfaces
I don’t understand how the recorder works does it have to be on the whole time or what
Lol, just plug in your mic, SD card, turn it on, set it up and start recording, what you don´t understand?
Great video, brother. While I dislike the sound of the SM7B, I know it's a workhorse.
You have to understand the microphone and give it what it requires, otherwise it can sound very bad
Why do you dislike the sound? Can't you just eq it to sound pleasing to your ears?
Thread not tread
There is already like 1000 videos about SM7B with cloudlifter, so what do you bring new, where is your definition? Get creative, come with something new
Same with your videos on the SM7B, his was clearer, informative, and gave a brief rundown of what the mic could do. You however didn't do that.
@@wintesrain damnnnnn tell them about they self 🤣🤣🤣
