Questions & Answers

If the regular clamps don't fit the desk, what kinds of stands can I use?

5/8" mic stand is standard.

Is there a difference between this microphone and the Shure SM58 in terms of clarity? I require a microphone that is more clear. ?

For the past 30 years, I've been in charge of sound and leading worship. I've been using SM58s for a long time, and the SM58 is no longer alive in my mind. I sold all of my 58s and bought the V7 because it is so much better in every way. Frequency response is one of its strong points. This softens the harshness that the 58 would bring out in many female voices. There will be no more EQ ballets to even out the voices.

Is this mic going to require phantom power?

Nope. There's no need for a phantom because it's a dynamic mic. These are also the best microphones in their price range.

Selected User Reviews For sE Electronics V7 Dynamic Microphone

This is the best $99 microphone I've ever used
5/5

This microphone is fantastic for vocals. It's mostly for live sound for me. For vocals, I've moved away from 58s and replaced them with this. It's a dynamic microphone that has a condenser feel to it. It's not as bright as a condensor, and it's not as easy to feedback as well. The EQs are much more flat in comparison to a 58, and the vocals sound more natural and musical than anything else in its class. I'd pay $200 for this microphone if it were available - possibly a lot more. It also has a high level of noise rejection on stage. In comparison to the 58s I usually use, I've noticed a significant reduction in drums in the mic. The quality of the vocals is simply superior. I haven't tried it on any instruments yet, but I plan to do so soon.

For the money, this is an excellent microphone
5/5

For vocal recording, I really like this mic. I bought it after reading a positive review in Tape Op magazine, and I was curious to see how it would compare to some other mics I own; I was previously using a Studio Projects B1 vocal condenser mic, which worked much better for me and my voice and style than the SM57 I began with. However, after setting up the V7 and attempting a few takes, I decided to abandon the project. It's now a coin toss. Those two are in a tie. For the price, it appears to be a good buy.

It was an excellent decision! This microphone has exceeded my expectations
5/5

In order to compare, I purchased the SM58 at the same time. In comparison to the SM58, I found the V7 to be slightly crisper and with less hum (wooliness) in the low end. The V7 has a smoother, more refined sound. For my home voice-over video narration, I was also debating between dynamic and condenser microphones. As many pro reviews have stated, the V7 combines the cleanliness of a condenser with the sound isolation of a dynamic, which is ideal for a room that has not been treated. The V7 is an excellent microphone for the money.

Woah
5/5

I've read some good things about it, and I'm always on the lookout for a good deal that ends up being fantastic. That is exactly what we are dealing with here. Wow. Shure, Sennheiser, Blue, and Audio Technica are some of the brands I've used in the past. It's all there for the taking. For gigs, I've switched to this mic. I'm going to get a Shure wireless mic and replace the S7 capsule with it. Just try to put a stop to it! br>br>Recent changes: br>br> br>Mic continues to be a force to be reckoned with! They are used by my band. I also decided on a Sennheiser wireless system. I purchased an adapter and am currently using the MC1 with the systems. Couldn't be more pleased!.

If you're fed up with boring sm58s, this is the product for you
5/5

Shure should be replaced as soon as possible for a $100 mic; these outperform 58s by a significant margin, making SE the new go-to low-cost pro dynamic. It doesn't kill vocals by requiring a lot of EQ like the 58s do, and it has a more natural sounding high end. When playing acoustic guitar with a dynamic, it has a very pleasing raw sound, similar to some studio condensers I've used. br>br>I can't compare it to every mic on the market, but in a world where millions of sm58s are used every day, this is a far better alternative for the same price.

It's a no-brainer to get this mic
5/5

Se Electronics has always been a great company to work with. I have a ribbon mic and a condenser mic from them. So it was a no-brainer for me when it came time to buy a good dynamic mic. This microphone is made of high-quality materials. I'm excited to put this mic to the test in the near future, and for the price, how could you say no? Se is the way to go if you want quality without the price.

It's similar to the Shure SM58, but it's a lot better
5/5

In many ways, this mic resembles the venerable Shure SM58. When comparing this mic to the SM58 with a flat EQ, I believe you'll notice that it sounds slightly better. The vocals appear to have a bit more presence and sit better in the mix. You can't go wrong with this deal. In a live setting, I've noticed a difference in male and female vocals.

This is a fantastic alternative to the SM58
5/5

The vocals have a lot of color and clarity in the mid to high range, with a solid build. I like the weight and heft of this microphone, as well as the. This microphone has excellent feedback rejection. To get such a clean and full sound, I don't need to do much tweaking at the board. It is well worth much more than its asking price!.
