Shure SM7B Reviews  4 / 5 based on 6 reviewsThe SM7b is a great mic and, with the right preamp, can be the center vocal mic in a professional studio. Not only does this mic sound great on vocals (especially male, in the heavier styles of music), but also on guitar cabinets, snare drum, hi-hats and the occasional bass drum. This was the mic used to record the vocals on the highest sellin... [read more on Audiofanzine] MatrixClaw rated this unit on 2012-03-31. This mic picks up all the nuance and character that I want while also providing amazing ambient noise rejection. I can record in any room in my house and the sound is nearly the same in each place. And while I wouldn't call this microphone a jack of all trades, that doesn't stop me from telling you that I love this microphone! You will too.

They are enamored with the ease of its use and its versatility, but understand that there is probably a microphone far m... [read more on Audiofanzine] Kierkes rated this unit on 2011-06-27. I've been using the Shure SM7B for about four years and have found it to truly be a great sounding microphone. It doesn't differ too much if at all across the board from the standard SM7, sharing the same qualities in terms of tone that includes a big sounding response as well as the ability to handle louder signals and instruments. I've used th... [read more on Audiofanzine] moosers rated this unit on 2009-05-02. I have only recently been introduced to using this mic in the studio. I tried it on a few other sources other than vocals such as a guitar cabinet and a horn, but nothing really clicked for me except a specific kind of singer. There are just some singers who really will sound trashy through a condenser without the smoothing that they receive t... [read more on Audiofanzine] joshsound rated this unit on 2008-10-09.
