Thank you for doing the test with the USB connection. I don't have XLR stuff, and I was so confused as to why I was so quiet when the microphone was claiming to be near clipping. When I saw your USB setting for the microphone, I set mine to the same and it sounds so much better now.

@b4nes 3 года назад

I dunno, mid to high freq in your voice is exaggerated. To me you sound much more natural without all the compressing. Thanks for the info!

@pappayoyo 2 года назад

the highs were just sounding harsh in this, some multiband comp and maybe better deessing

@DiversityDragons 2 года назад

He sounds great to me after the processing

@toastedclosure2770 2 года назад

the fact that its a usb and xlr hybrid was what made me purchase it. I don't yet have the money to invest in an audio interface, but also not money for buying another microphone once i do get an audio interface. With this, i can just use the usb output until i get an audio interface. so nice!

@zurvey 2 года назад

FYI, you can put a Shure SM7B foam screen on a Shure MV7 microphone, and it makes the MV7 much better. If the MV7 had USBC instead of microUSB connection, I'd love it. Instead, my main mic is the SM7B with the Elgato Wave XLR. It gives the SM7B modern perks.

I've been using a Blue Snowball Ice since I started working from home last spring. Having a workspace with a 3rd grader just outside the usually open door has made it abundantly clear that I need a better mic. This looks like a winner for cutting out background noise and having a much better audio quality than the Snowball or my webcam can provide. Great review, thanks for putting it together and showing the USB/XLR difference.

@LorneVignettes 3 года назад

which is great for people who don't have a DAW or a interface. Using the XLR connection will sound better than the USB going into a DAW like Cubase, which is what I use. I have a Phonic Summit 16 channel mixer which is what I plug my mic into which is my interface for Cubase. I add processing like noise gate (which will cut out typing noise or desk noise). I also use the Slate Digital everything bundle along with Izotope to make the mic sound amazing. Then instead of running the 2 XLR cables to my studio monitors I route those into a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 which is my stream Labs interface. I've been using a Shure beta 87a for my streaming mic but this mic is not made for spoken dialogue. So I ordered the Shure MV7 and should be on my door step today. Shure really stepped their game up on this one making it possible for someone who has no audio interface at all to go USB in and sound great. I commend Shure for making this product. Can't wait to hook it up.

@MicDropBBQ Год назад

I like the NO HISS. When you stop talking, it sounds like the video is over. I like that sound. Very clean. Crisp. I listened to this video and ordered the MV7 on eBay just now. LOL! A little over $200 and ordered a new boom versus the one I have. Thanks for this video. Induced me to pull the trigger on the deal. It'll be here around September 2, 2023. Feel free to listen to my current livestreams that I've done for the past year and then after I run the MV7, I'll hear the difference.

@donbowers1159 3 года назад

I have had this mic for about 30 days, I have the usb and the xlr with a GOXLR mini. I love this thing. I also have a blue yeti that is now safely in my drawer. Shure has done an amazing job on this mic. Worth every dollar.

@adadsthing650 2 года назад

Hi Don, I just picked up the mv7 less than 30 days ago, and plan to use with my podtrak p4 which acts like an interface with xlr ports. It only has gain dials. I'm curious if you have both the USB and xlr connect while using your GOXLR mini and can use the app to dial in the mic settings. Appreciate any feedback you could provide. Thanks!

@donbowers1159 2 года назад

@@adadsthing650 That’s a great question, I did have the XLR hooked into a go XLR mini and the USB plugged in as well. The USB portion Diles the microphone in pretty good, but the go Alex or mini does a better job so I tend to use that. After a while I would head and unplug the USB just because sometimes it changed to use the USB instead of the co-LX are mini. I had both dialed in and they work really well. This Mike is one of the best investments I’ve ever made. So the answer is yes I use both from time to time but mostly The go LXR mini. It’s software does compression and all that other stuff that I want done.

@adadsthing650 2 года назад

Much appreciated Don! I just checked out what your XLR mini is, and I can see how just dialing that in with the mv7 will get great sound. I'm a newbie in a sence, but will do some testing to see if I can tune in on the app and still record on my podtrak. It sound like I may, but will be going through USB instead of xlr. One day I'll be upgrading to a zoom p8 and my "problem" will be solved😂 Either way, it's a great mic. Thanks again 👍🏾

@adadsthing650 2 года назад

@@donbowers1159 my first time using a USB mic and I absolutely love it. Once I learn how it ties together with my whole system, I know I'll love it even more. I did an interview yesterday, and when I played back the zoom recording, audio sounded terrible and my hopes it that isn't how I sounded to the guest. But when I played back the audio the I recorded in my podtrak p4, it sounded beautiful! Syncing that audio with the video will be a little extra work, but we'll worth it once project is complete. I'll keep tinkering and see what happens. Appreciate your time!

As for all the digital processing, it sounds like Shure is using the computer’s audio capabilities to do the role of mic preamp (a la Cloudlifter). But, whoa! @10:03-10:04 “So that is the Rode MV7 microphone...”. Okay, so no one’s perfect. 😉

StreamYard recognizes it and it registers there, but no signal to Rodecaster.
