Shure has announced the evolution of its hybrid XLR/USB dynamic microphone with the launch of the MV7+ Podcast Microphone.
It marks a significant step forward from its predecessor, the award-winning MV7 Podcast Microphone, by integrating a sleeker design and software upgrades built to meet and exceed the needs of modern creators, offering what the company describes as even better audio quality with ease of use.
Designed for streamers, podcasters, and musicians, the MV7+ is the ideal choice for those seeking to capture broadcast-quality audio in even the most challenging of spaces. Shure's Voice Isolation Technology means that the focus lies on the user’s voice, avoiding annoying background noises and ensuring high quality audio for every recording and streaming session.
It also includes a new onboard Digital Signal Processing (DSP) engine which powers a suite of advanced features, like an improved Auto Level Mode, a Digital Popper Stopper for enhanced plosive control, Real-time Denoiser, and Adjustable Reverb.
The MV7+ podcast microphone integrates with the free, new MOTIV Mix Desktop app – Shure’s latest MOTIV software interface – providing users with the ability to configure all aspects of the MV7+. The software also offers multi-track recording and routing to support users with a greater control of their live streaming and recordings.
“Modern content creators and streamers are constantly searching for new ways to customise their set up and sound to set themselves above the pack,” said Sean Sullivan, Associate Director of Global Product Management at Shure. "The MV7+ is our answer to this challenge. It builds off the legacy of the MV7 and delivers broadcast-quality audio in any setting while empowering creators with intuitive customisation and control. Through our latest DSP innovations and the new MOTIV Mix desktop app integration, the MV7+ is set to redefine excellence in audio recording for every session.”
The MV7+ Podcast Microphone comes in two colours (black and white). The black MV7+ is available now at Shure.com and select retailers, starting at $279 / £279 / 329€. This summer, the white version will be available starting at $279 / £279 / 329€, along with a special bundle, the MV7+ Podcast kit (pictured above), that includes the microphone in black and a Gator mic stand, starting at $299 / £299 / 349€.
Each purchase comes with a 3m USB-C to USB-C cable, a printed quick start guide, and a MOTIV MIX Art Card with download instructions. Other accessories such as a 15-inch USB-C to lightning cable and a replacement foam windscreen are available for purchase individually.
