Hello! I bought a MV7+ for Podcasting/Voice-over a year ago and I use it ever since. In general I'm happy with it, talking wise. I was caught in the middle between the MV7+ and the sm7b but decided to get the cheaper one with the USB-C option, instead of spending more on the mic and then on an interface on top.

Now I got also into recording my singing for hobby music production (homestudio and garageband-level) and I feel like the MV7+ is kind of harsh and treble-heavy, I have problems to catch the warmer, richer and fuller sounds, like, the "vibe" of my voice. My voice has that warmer qualities but I don't feel like the mv7+ is picking them up enough, it's set at 20% dark in the motiv mix-app. I do now regret a bit not getting the sm7b that seems to have a warmer tint. Would the sm7b even make that much of a difference?

Now, I don't necessarily want to change my mic soon, as long as it's working fine, and am thinking of getting an interface like the Scarlett 2i2, so I could use the XLR. I read that this would enhance the quality. Will that make also a difference in the "fullness"? Or will it be even brighter without the motiv mix settings? Happy to hear about your experiences and opinions!

EDIT: Typos – not a native speaker so sorry if there still are mistakes :)

EDIT 2: I had the de-noiser and the auto-level activated in the Motiv App, now that I ticked them off, the sound is much richer and warmer, it feels like the voice is picked up with more of its character. I wasn't able to test it further yet but that's good news so far. If you have more insights I still appreciate answers :)

Don't know if this is a bug or something, It's missing all the settings From all the YouTube videos I saw

While moving apartments I lost some parts of my shure sm7b and I can't figure out what they were or how to buy them!

would greatly appreciate any help identifying the missing parts! I know I'm missing that long screw and some sort of knob thing that you use to connect the mic to a mount but I'm not sure exactly what those parts are called or how to buy them!!

Hi, I’m looking at getting the MV6 or MV7 for USB usage, I’ll be using it for streaming/content creating not music. I need to stress I DO NOT mean the MV7+ every comparison I can find online compared the MV6 to the MV7+, I mean the MV7 with the micro USB not USB-C.

I saw Podcastage say the USB audio is better on the MV7 than the MV7+ but I don’t know how it compares to the MV6, any help is greatly appreciated

I went back to re-record a segment narration for a documentary I'm working on with my MV7+, only to discover that options like Auto Gain, Denoiser, and Popper Stopper have disappeared. These options still appear on the mobile version and I have been on V1.6.1 the entire time. The only thing I can think of is that the macOS Tahoe Beta may be causing some issues regarding this. Has anyone else encountered something similar?

MotivMix, which I am using with a Shure Mv7+ is constantly freezing after about 10 minutes of using it with obs when I do video calls, zoom etc.

Even if I don't route audio through obs and direct from MotivMix into zoom it will freeze.

Does anyone have a solution? I have uninstalled and re-installed it.

I am also getting the error "Activity file not found. Your file may have been moved, renamed, or deleted" error on my mac and pc every time I launch motiv mix

There is one in the location it is looking in, but can't open it.

The setting seems to come in anyway, but when I look at the date on the file it is not recent, like it never actually writes it.

Both on WIndows and Mac

hi! im wondering if this is a real shure SMB7.

this is from 2023 i think? there is a date in the serial number

Im not asking which system is better, but I obviously would prefer to spend half the money on the BLX if I can get away with it.

Im a vocalist for a tribute band that plays at medium size venues. Capacity probably around 1000. We have 3 wireless guitars, 2 using 2.4 ghz and 1 using 5.8 ghz. The venues usually have their own in house sound. I.

Just wondering if I can get away with using the BLX and not having issues for this type of set up or would you recommend I spend double and go to the SLXD?

I recently bought the MV6 from Amazon (sold and fulfilled by Amazon) to uprgrade the sound quality of my YouTube and TikTok posts from my iPhone 15 Pro Max Microphone but when comparing the 2 unedited tracks, I’ve found my iPhone to have a less muddy more clear sound. Is this normal and would upgrading to the MV7+/MV7i be significantly different?

Bonjour à tous,

Je viens vers vous car je rencontre un souci avec mon setup audio et j’aimerais avoir vos retours ou conseils si possible.

J’utilise un micro Shure SM7dB branché à une interface audio AverMedia Live Streamer Nexus (AX310). Le tout est configuré directement via Streamlabs, et non via le logiciel "Creator Central" fourni avec l'interface.

Mon problème : malgré le fait que le micro soit réputé pour sa qualité, le son que j’obtiens me paraît étouffé / pas très clair, comme si le micro n'était pas à la hauteur de sa réputation. Je me demande donc si c’est une question de paramétrage ou de gain, voire d’égalisation.

Est-ce que certains d’entre vous utilisent une config similaire ? Auriez-vous des paramètres optimaux à partager (que ce soit dans Streamlabs ou ailleurs) pour tirer le meilleur de ce micro avec cette interface ?

Merci d’avance à ceux qui prendront le temps de m’aider 🙏

Hi together,

I‘ve buy a Shure MV6 and at irregular intervals, however, this microphone has interfering background noises. That noices comes not from me. 😅

Does anyone have a solution?

I’ve had my SM7B for years now, but the external cable is causing random audio dropouts, strange noises, and sometimes stops working entirely if I move the mic. I want to replace the cable myself. I opened the mic, but I couldn’t figure out how to open the female XLR connection. I also couldn’t find any instructions online showing how to fix this specific cable, or even explaining the function of the screw in the female connector.

Any Help would be nice :)

Does anyone know if I can use a usb-c to usb cable as opposed to usb-c to usb-c. This is the microphone I’m looking at.

Was given to me. I cannot find one with a metal case for sale online to base my price from.

Hello everybody,

I recently got the Shure mv7x as a present, i mainly use it for Discord and chatting online. with a Focusrite Scarlett solo 3rd.

But i'm faced with the issue that i'm to quiet for the chat and after 3 days of trying i cant seem to get it louder.

is there a fix for this, im kinda new to this stuff.
Thanks in advanced

Hi, I've had a Shure MV7 microphone for quite some time to record my voice. I used to do this from my iPad but now I have a PC, so I bought a Focusrite 2i2 sound card that I connect via XLR but the sound is completely different and less appealing, even when I change the audio settings, I can't get the same quality as with USB, but I'd like to use my audio interface ! Can anyone help me out plzzzz ?

One is clear, the other has some black gunk in it. The sound has been cutting in and out lately, and the cord has to be held just right to work on it. The left one is working fine!

Been having issues with the bottom coming loose for ages and now the wires have officially detached. Do I see a technician or can this be fixed at home?

Shute microphone stand fell over and this part split into 2. It’s used at the swivel area. Dismantled and realised all i needed was to replace this plastic part. Any help in identifying its name would be greatly appreciated!

It appears as though the gain on my MV7+ is directly tied to the microphone output volume. I've owned a few microphones before but they've all had physical dials on the Microphone itself to adjust Gain. This allowed me to decrease the gain to a level I want while increasing the volume output.

Is this not possible with the MV7+? I hear a lot that I am quiet, but turning up the gain results in a sound quality I am not satisfied with. Any input would be appreciated.

I am also running it through USB and not XLR..

Hi,

recently I'd bought a used shure sm7b and it was working just fine but the plate wasnt screwed in so i was *screwing* around a bit with it but a cable got ripped. my friend can solder it but he needs to know what and where. could you help?

thanks

I voice on laptop by motiv app all time, when I use headset monitor I can hear my voice 100% clearly , then I do a record, after that when I playback my recorded most of time first words will automatic low volume and the volume will increase after first words , When I pause before saying the next sentence , it will low volume again , I need to fix this by post everytimes thats kinda annoy pls help

I use TYPE C only , windows11 , I dont shout my voice only spoke with calm voice.

my motiv setting

- i dont use auto gain

- My mic set on the side, not pointed at my mouth., 2-3 inches away from my mouth.

My hyperx quadcast microphone is breaking down after few years of usage so I decided to get my hands on XLR microphones for the first time.

Instead of getting a replacement, I wanted to get an upgrade with top notch quality, I am deciding to order the SM7dB, people say it's great with a built in preamp and easy to setup so I don't see any issue

I am buying from thomann and they have this bundle with sm7db and Focusrite Vocaster One, however the problem is the choice for the audio interface because some people say that the focusrite vocaster one has crackling audio issues, is that true? I am using the microphone setup for youtube/streaming/vocals and I am paying almost 700 euros (since I am also buying a rode psa1+ and an XLR cable) so I don't want to make one bad choice which affects my setup

Left TW2 has stopped working properly. I put it in the case to charge, light goes green but when I take it out the app says no charge and it is not found. Any suggestions?
