Built-in preamplifier for better integration into your sound setup

The SM7dB is a cardioid dynamic microphone with a Shure-designed built-in preamp that provides a low-noise, flat, transparent gain of up to +28 dB - ideal for interfaces that struggled with the SM7B 's low output level. The now-integrated preamp also simplifies the audio chain and gets rid of clunky inline preamps and other accessories that were sometimes necessary to use the SM7B. However, if needed and according to personal preference, the internal Preamp can be bypassed to operate at the familiar SM7B level.

Appreciated SM7B sound

The SM7dB delivers the familiar sound valued by broadcasters, singers and music producers alike. Shure engineers have carefully ensured that it has the same sound signature as the original SM7B. As a result, it delivers a warm and mellow sound that is ideally suited for vocal and instrument recording.
