MV7+

I use it for work calls and podcasts. Excellent sound quality and although the price is not small, I do not regret the purchase. It has fully justified itself.

Connected via USB and it as okay at best. It shines under XLR conditions.

Great product and timely delivery. Thanks

Only problem I've noticed with this mic is settings-wise it can be a bit annoying getting the gain right, but just adjusting the settings in whatever software you're using if it ends up being too quiet isn't that big of an issue. I have a good boom arm for this (Rode PSA1+) which allows me to maneuver this mic anywhere I'd want practically and that might also be helpful in getting it positioned perfectly for your voice. IMPORTANTLY I know people have had problems with the micro USB port on the device, however, after about a month and a half I have not had this issue. My advice is that you will likely be fine assuming 1. You do not constantly plug/unplug the cable from that port. 2. You are careful when touching that part of the cable to not be too rough. 3. You leave some slack in the cable (specifically RIGHT behind the mic before it snakes up your boom arm) because if the cable is too tense then it could cause the plug to push more into one side of the interior of the port than it ought to. In summary, take precautions, be careful when moving it (NEVER grab it by the cable when moving it, grab onto the microphone or better yet the boom arm) and also be careful plugging/unplugging it, a good boom arm is advisable for a good mic, also the gain can be an issue but there are many ways to adjust that either in software or moving the mic closer perhaps or whatever is needed. The quality of the sound is excellent. My old microphone was a HyperX Solocast and for me I felt like it had a problem with sibilance sounds (i.e. 'S' sounds coming through poorly), but the Shure MV7 has no problem with sibilance or plosives from my experience (might vary for other setups I am sure, but for me it is solid). Probably the best option unless maybe you can afford a mega expensive Shure SM7B setup and all the stuff it requires, but if you want a mic that can plug into a USB of your computer and the Shure MV7 is affordable enough then just be careful and go for it. (Side note: I heard you can improve the MV7 quality even more by separately buying a SM7B-style microphone cover and putting it on instead. Haven't tried it myself, but seems like it would work as far as I can tell.) OH! Also it should be noted that when you receive this microphone it will have an awful chemical-like smell at first, but do not worry. Just let it air out in a room or something. The smell should go away in a day or a few days. It's only temporary. Not sure what causes the smell, probably something with how it is packaged. I've gone over a few problems in this review, but none of them stop me from giving this microphone a 5/5 because all of its problems have solutions I find. Also the mic quality is amazing once you mess with its settings. I've included a picture to show roughly how you should have the mic's cable be not too tight. (As you can see, if it was too tight here, the cable would be pulled up and thus the end of the cable inside of the mic would try to do the same meaning the end of it would be pressing down against the lower part of the port inside the mic. Having it loose means the cable is straight as it enters the mic, and thus because it is not entering the port at an angle is not really pushing against any areas against the inside of the port. Now, I probably do not need quite this much loose cable, but just make sure the thick end of the cable going into the mic is straight and probably also at least a tiny bit of the cable that is behind the wider and thicker end. This will also probably make it easier the unplug and make unplugging it less risky.)

Great quality

Ho acquistato lo Shure MV7+ per migliorare l'audio dei miei video su YouTube e non potevo fare scelta migliore. È un microfono eccezionale che combina la semplicità d'uso con una resa sonora degna di uno studio professionale. Ecco cosa mi ha colpito di più: Audio Cristallino: La tecnologia di isolamento della voce è incredibile. Anche se non registro in una stanza perfettamente insonorizzata, il microfono cattura solo la mia voce eliminando i rumori di fondo. Versatilità (USB-C e XLR): Lo uso principalmente via USB-C direttamente nel PC ed è comodissimo, ma la possibilità di passare all'XLR in futuro lo rende un investimento a lungo termine. Software MOTIV Mix: L'app permette di regolare tutto facilmente (gain, EQ, limiter). La funzione di "Auto Level" è perfetta per chi, come me, si muove un po' davanti alla camera o cambia tono di voce durante i video. Estetica e LED: Il pannello LED personalizzabile è un tocco di classe che fa una bellissima figura nelle inquadrature dei miei video. In sintesi: Se sei uno YouTuber o un podcaster e vuoi un audio che faccia fare il salto di qualità al tuo canale, lo Shure MV7+ vale ogni centesimo. Consigliatissimo!

Único ponto negativo do microfone é sua entrada USB. Os cabos acabam ficando um pouco para fora o que com o tempo pode causar mal contato. O cabo que vem com o microfone é super frágil, tendo quebrado em menos de 1 mês de uso.
