The SM7B has been updated from earlier models with an improved bracket design that offers greater stability. In addition to it's standard windscreen, it also includes the A7WS windscreen for close-talk applications.

- Bass roll-off and mid-range emphasis (presence boost) controls with graphic display of response setting
- Improved rejection of electromagnetic hum, optimized for shielding against broadband interference emitted by computer monitors
- Internal "air suspension" shock isolation virtually eliminates mechanical noise transmission
- Highly effective pop filter eliminates need for any add-on protection against explosive breath sounds, even for close-up vocals or narration
- Now shipping with the A7WS detachable windscreen, designed to reduce plosive sounds and gives a warmer tone for close-talk vocals
- Yoke mounting with captive stand nut for easy mounting and dismounting provides precise control of microphone position
- Classic cardioid polar pattern, uniform with frequency and symmetrical about axis, to provide maximum rejection and minimum coloration of off-axis sound

"SM7 perfect for Project Studio..."
Sound: The Shure SM7b is an everything mic. I like the flat response setting, but I love the fact that you can control the frequency response. It is perfect for the style of music I'm recording. We want a nice clear and accurate sound, and that is exactly what the sm7 offers. So far, I've used it on vocals, acoustic guitar, and snare, and I haven't been dissapointed with any of the results. When using it on vocals, there is a very nice proximity effect. Feature: I love the frequency response switches. That is the reason that this mic is so versatile. You can cut the lows, you can boost the sweet spot in the highs, you can leave it flat, or you can choose any combination in between. It also came with an extra, thicker pop filter. That was a nice surprise. Ease of Use: Plug the mic in and hit record, great sound no matter what. Quality: This mic has a thick and sturdy metal frame. I don't think I'll have any problems with this thing breaking down. Value: Before holding the mic in my hands, I thought it might be a little pricey. But from the time I opened the box to the time I plugged it in and listened back to the first recording, I knew it was worth it. Just looking at it in the studio makes you feel confident about what you're recording. Manufacturer Support: I haven't had to deal with support any, and hope I won't have to, but I like to think that a company that puts out products this good won't skimp on their support. The Wow Factor: It looks great. It makes you feel like you know what you're doing when you're using it. Overall: This mic will stay in my studio as long as I have a studio. I don't know if I can stand not having one now.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Shure SM7B lives up to its reputation!"
Sound: The sound quality of this product is exactly what you'd expect. Professional, clean and robust. So far I've just used it on Voice Over and it has performed well. I recorded a little bit of vocals through it and I can tell it will be excellent at this too. I'm pleased. Feature: An additional windscreen was included that lets you get right up on the mic. Ease of Use: Meat and potatoes mic. I do wish the filters were a bit easier to adjust, but I understand why they are engineered as they are. It is to prevent someone from accidentally changing the filters/roll off. Quality: Built like a tank. This mic is gonna last forever. Value: I think the product is worth the typical $349 asking price, especially if you haven't already invested in a lot of other dynamic mics. The Wow Factor: Sexy Baby! Overall: I'll be satisfied for good.
