The Shure SM7dB is an active dynamic microphone, an update to the SM7B, featuring a built-in, phantom-powered preamp for +18dB or +28dB of clean gain (with bypass option), retaining the classic cardioid pattern, bass roll-off, and mid-boost controls for broadcast-quality vocals, with specs like 50Hz-20kHz response, 150 Ohm impedance, and robust electromagnetic shielding for minimal noise.
Integrated Preamp: Eliminates the need for an external preamp by providing significant clean gain internally, making it easier to drive with any interface.
Iconic Sound: Retains the classic frequency response and sound profile of the original SM7B but with a hotter output.
Noise Rejection: Excellent off-axis rejection and internal shock mounting minimize background noise and handling rumble
