DISCLAIMER! I mentioned in the video that I had a fan on in the background to demonstrate background rejection and said the fan was on "the whole time." I turned it on at 6:02, so from then onwards is when the fan is on. Just didn't want anyone thinking that it was on for the entire video, when it wasn't!

the real economical solution to the quiet of the sm7b is using JST gain reduction deluxe. It makes all mics louder and it also makes voices sound amazing.

I love the sm7b, but the competitors have done a great job of demystifying it. I used a presonus pd70 as my daily driver mic and it slays the sm7b

Bought the SM7B back in 2009 before streaming was even a thing and used it for my vocals on my music, mostly metal/heavy rock, which it is perfect for. It's also fantastic as an instrument mic. The mic is incredible and legendary for a reason. It's criminally underrated, really. It's a broadcast standard which is why so many people went towards it for podcasting etc. So is the application of it for streaming and podcasting overblown? Maybe, but that's not the mic being overrated, it's being underutilized for the best purposes that it is meant for.

Most people couldn't tell the difference between an SM7B and an SM57 on spoken word if their life depended on it... I feel like his take was that the mic is idealized on the internet dispite not actually being ideally suited for the "streaming" application for the reasons he stated... It's overkill for "just talking into" and frankly impractical for that purpose to begin with... so just semantically speaking, for podcasts or discord calls/live streaming it's 100% overrated

100% agree. I say in the video that I think it’s a better instrument mic/music production mic than streaming mic.

As a certified SM7B hater, I couldn't agree more. It's a gimmicky mic that's frankly wasted on most vocals. Most people should just get an SM57 with a pop filter and be happy. Just came across your channel, and I enjoy your delivery. The only thing I'd say needs improvement is your distance from the mic/mic positioning... the plosives are very noticable at points and clip the signal (especially on the Lewitt) and youre generally a bit too close to the condenser mic imo. Concise script, clean visuals. Getting crinacle/DMS vibes (;

Yeah, just got a new set of IEMs. I don’t like wearing headphones in videos, so I haven’t been monitoring, so I had no idea I was clipping a bit, and also getting plosives on the Lewitt. Gonna start monitoring using IEMs now so shouldn’t happen again 👍
