Shure SM7dB Cardioid Dynamic Studio Vocal Microphone with Built-in Preamp

An audio icon is reborn – the Shure SM7dB has the sound you’ve loved for years but with the convenience of a built-in preamp, providing all the extra gain you’ll ever need. The latest iteration of this legendary XLR dynamic microphone makes it easier for podcasters, streamers, and musicians to get perfect vocals from any recording setup.

All the gain you need.

Never again worry if an audio interface might lack the necessary gain for great results. The SM7dB frees you from clunky in-line preamps and other accessories while ensuring you get that classic SM7 tone no matter where you’re recording.

The sound you always wanted.

Excellent rear-rejection and textbook cardioid pick-up pattern isolates your voice from background noise, ideal for less-than-ideal recording spaces.

Boost, or no boost.

Miking loud sound sources like a guitar cab? Use +18dB or bypass the preamp. Are you podcasting or recording quiet vocals? Select the full boost of +28dB.
