What a cool and useful gadget! I believe the sm-58 actually sounded better than the sm-7b on that interface. A little brighter with a little more volume. Great audio just keeps getting more obtainable. Thanks for sharing the cool tech!
There is something to be said for minimalism. Nice in that if you want MORE than minimalism, you can goof around with the settings ap that comes with it. Props to Shure.
I just got this after noticing a price drop and that they fixed noise issues via an update. Today I tested out a bunch of mics with it and I'm quite happy with it. It's something that can stay in a daily carry bag, recording on the go, and easy to hook up to an XLR mic for online meetings without having to hook up a larger interface. Definitely a luxury and not a necessity, but there's a nice niche for it.
I have chosen to buy this to add to my SM7B rather than buying the SM7DB. Prefer an easy setup now that I’m trying restart an old podcast - one I can keep recording them even when I’m on the road. Can’t get any easier than a sm57 and this little guy right here. I always use the noise suppression filter in OBS so hopefully that negates the noise floor issue of I ever use the SM7B.
Very useful, nifty little audio interface. At first, I thought it was a part of SM58. Aslo, the software is very useful and I did not think it would include effects like EQ, limiter, and compressor.
It could really be interesting to use this one for someone who doesn't know much about audio but want great sound! Especially for those who get scared of all of the buttons on an interface. Will share this video to my friends :)
If I can get sound of something this small I am Happy ( Thats what she said ) That's a preety cool gadget man. Seems to do the job all round pleasure and work side of things.
@@ObscureMics Now you got me wondering... lol.. If you were planning on moving to W'ford, Tx - known for peaches, then I would have to inform you it is not "way out in the country" anyone but you would already know that. My next guess would be Georgia.
Love this. Did the Shure app kill the slight hiss you mentioned? I hate that my MV7 uses micro USB, but I like the sound. This is perfect for travel with a dynamic xlr mic.
Im thinking the hiss was headphone hiss now, as I did not hear it back on rewatch on pc The mv7 was confusing as it was released at a time when it absolutely should have had a usb c port Appreciate you watching my stuff. I love the webcam stuff you do, as I am more into webcams than actual cameras
Great video! I am hesitating between Shure MV7+ AND SM7dB + interface shure MVX2U (to make it USB). Which one would you recommend? I have no gears and want to do video podcasting/ youtube interviews with remote guest using Riverside. I want to keep it simple but with good sound. Thank you!
Pretty interesting gadget. Sounds good. Are all those options processed inside the adapter, with the software just being a configuration tool? (I've been wondering that about mics with configurable effects too).
Not wild about hardware that depends that heavily on software (phantom power especially), but it's an impressive device nonetheless. Also, not much of country music fan either, but pedal steel guitars are amazing.
Love the sound. Don't love the software controls. I need knobs man! That said, I'm gonna get one of these so my roving reporters only need that and their phone to do man-on-the-street interviews! BFE = Be Far from Everybody. Right?
So can I clarify something. Will this little dude allow me to replace usb condenser mics with a dynamic for Teams or Skype meetings without having to load the software to my work laptop which does not allow "foreign" software. Yet I can use a Rode NT Mini, Yeti, Sennheiser Ptofile or any other USB mic without a problem. If so, happy days. A dynamic on USB. I love condensers but when you live in an apartment block you pick up everything. A dynamic might just improve that issue.
@@ObscureMics Doesn't the mic retain the settings from the previous connection to the software? I tried it today, and when I hooked up a condenser after a dynamic it didn't work, so I opened the software and engaged phantom power. Then I got out of the software. Next condenser mic I hooked up worked without opening the software, so it carried over the previous settings. Of course, the same settings might not suit both of those mics perfectly, but you could just stick with the same mic. So as long as one has two computers and configures the mic on the non-work one, it should show up on the work computer in Zoom or other software without the need to use the Shure app.
@djtoman6875 this is correct….and also the one way you can use the mvx2u on a phone…by dialing in the proper gain and power for a specific mic, then switch to a phone from pc
