Best Microphone for Live Video? Why We Love the Shure SM7B

Is the Shure SM7B the best microphone for live video? Laura Davidson of Shure talks about why live video creators love the Shure SM7B and consider it the best microphone for live streaming and podcasting. Watch next: The Best USB Microphone: https://youtu.be/Qnmj-TqhJB4

Of course, it's impossible to say definitively what's the best microphone for you. Every voice is different and so a mic that sounds great on your voice may not sound great on mine and vice versa.

The Shure SM7B and Electro-Voice RE20 have long been the industry-standard microphones in radio studios across the United States. In recent years, the Shure SM7B has become the go-to mic for many live video hosts, particularly those planning to repurpose their recordings into YouTube videos, podcasts and other content. It's also become hugely popular in the podcasting world, with celebrity video podcasters like Joe Rogan using it.

Who do I love the SM7B? Most importantly, it works for my voice right out of the box. It pairs exceptionally well with the outstanding Sound Devices MixPre-3's quiet preamps, analog limiters and low cut filter. I consider the SM7B better suited for home recording/streaming and more capable of handling different vocal applications than other dynamic microphones. It's also internally shock-mounted and looks good on video.
