## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does the shure sm7b compare to the blue yeti pro?**
A: I have the yeti pro, silver yeti the Shure SM7B, and the AKG 420. The best by far is the SM7B! The Yeti's are toys compared to the sound depth of the SM7B. Don't even consider the Yeti's at all if you can remotely afford the SM7B. The AKG 420 is middle of the road between the yeti and SM7B, it's good at least compared to the Yeti.

**Q: Do you need a mixamp/preamp/mixer/audio interface to use this microphone on a PC or is it optional?**
A: The question is specifically asking about using this mic with a PC, and although it's a 6 year old question, it still needs to be flooded with correct answers to hide the bad one inexplicably found at the top, even though its Yes:No helpfulness ratio is atrocious and is neither the newest nor the oldest answer. This absolutely needs an interface to be used with a PC. A lot of these answers are going on about the preamp, but regardless of how you get power to this thing--whether it be preamps onboard your interface or whatnot--you will absolutely need some sort of interface to, well, interface with your computer. Whether it be USB, Firewire, Thunderbolt, or PCIe, you will 1000% need a way to get the signal into your PC. That aside, you will definitely want good way to drive it given its output level.

**Q: Does it come with a mic stand or shock mount to hold it or do I need to buy my own? Also If I need my own what do you suggest?**
A: This microphone has it's own mount, that provides slight separation from any vibration noise. There is no elastic suspension "shock mount" available for this unit - but is a very rugged mic that can take a beating.  Any decent stand will do... but because the SM7B is fairly heavy, I'd advise if your going to hang it off a boom stand, I'd find a sturdy one with a decent counter weight.  I use an Atlas Sound MS20E Heavy Duty Microphone Stand or the On Stage SMS7650 Hex-Base Studio Boom Microphone Stand.

**Q: Can it be connected to shure dynamic microphone by xvive u3 xlr wireless system(no need extra adapter)?**
A: yes!xvive u3 is the best wireless system for dynamic microphone

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 比べるとわかるMV7+との違い
*by I***Y on July 12, 2025*

ウェブ会議で使っているMV7+がとても良かったので上位モデルが欲しくなって購入しました。MVX2Uも買ったのでアプリのMOTIV Mixで両者を比べましたが、SM7dBの方が明らかに音質が良いです。MV7+もフラットで癖のない音がしますがどこか人工的な処理が入ってる感じがします。対してSM7dBはそういう機械的な感じが全くなく、ごく自然な感じで聴き疲れしない優しい音がするのは凄いです。中低音の厚みもMV7+よりありますね。ただMV7+のリアルタイムデノイザーは優秀でエアコンのノイズは完全に消えます。お手軽なMVX2Uにはその機能はないので、やはりこれはそういう処理が別途出来る人向けのマイクだと感じました。

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 最高のダイナミックマイク
*by K***O on May 25, 2025*

ダイナミックマイクの中では最強。SSL2を利用していますが、音質最強になりました。配信や音楽活動とかはしておらず、VCのみでの利用ですが素人目線で買ってよかったと思える製品。ただ意外とリップノイズとかは拾うので、ノイズ抑制とかはいる気がします。みんな何つかってるんだろ…

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 買って損はない音質
*by K***E on June 20, 2025*

約20年前から持っていたsm-58からの交換です。一言発しただけで音の違いを実感。評判通りの安くない音でした。環境としては現在bridgecastを接続しているため、EQ調整もゲインも問題なく、sm7b使用でよく言われるブースターは必要ありません。bridgecastのノイズサプレッサーは綺麗に環境音をシャットアウトしてくれますが、エフェクトの性質上メカニカルな声質になってしまいがち。sm-58ではそれが顕著に出ていたが、sm7bは音の厚みが段違いなため大幅に緩和され違和感が少ない音質になりました。期待通りの音質でしたので大変満足しています。
