Use +18dB or bypass the preamp for the original SM7B output level. Podcasting or recording quiet vocals? Select the built-in boost of +28dB. BYPASS SWITCH - A convenient bypass mode allows you to forego the built-in preamp in case you prefer to feed the mic's unboosted signal into your professional console or interface. Bypassing the preamp reverts the SM7dB to original SM7B performance.
WIDE FREQUENCY RESPONSE - Whether you've activated the preamp or not, you'll get the same great detail in your recordings from a proven dynamic cartridge and frequency range of 50 to 20,000Hz. Hear all the highs and lows for truly natural sounding audio. CARDIOID POLAR PATTERN - Excellent rear-rejection and textbook cardioid pick-up pattern isolates your voice from any background noise, allowing the SM7dB to capture warm, crisp audio in any environment. FIND YOUR IDEAL TONE - Just like the SM7B, the SM7dB offers multiple sound signatures using switches on the back of the microphone to suit any type of voice or instrument.Find your ideal tone by cutting the lows or boosting the presence.
