Shure SM7dB Active Dynamic Microphone

The Shure SM7dB is the modern evolution of the legendary SM7B, adding a built-in clean preamp that provides up to 28dB of gain — eliminating the need for a Cloudlifter or high-gain interface to drive this quiet dynamic microphone to usable levels. The SM7dB sounds identical to the SM7B that Michael Jackson recorded Thriller on and that every major podcaster has moved to, but works cleanly with any USB interface including those with modest preamp gain. The switchable high-pass filter and mid-range presence boost controls are identical to the SM7B.

• Built-in clean preamp — up to 28dB gain, no Cloudlifter needed
• SM7B-identical sound — Michael Jackson's Thriller microphone lineage
• Switchable high-pass filter and presence boost
• Works with any interface — including modest-gain USB options
