Shure MV7i Smart Mic with Built-in Audio Interface

Full Description

Record with clarity and ease

The MV7i’s Voice Isolation Technology focuses on your voice while eliminating background noise, ensuring clean and professional recordings. Auto Level Mode adjusts mic gain in real-time based on your distance, volume, and room acoustics, making setup effortless. Combined with SmartGate, it prevents crosstalk and maintains a pristine sound for dual-channel audio, ideal for interviews or music sessions.

Versatile input options

The built-in combo XLR and quarter-inch input expands your recording possibilities by supporting an additional microphone or instrument. Whether you’re layering vocals or capturing a guitar performance, the MV7i handles it with ease, offering up to 60dB of gain and 48v phantom power. It outputs digital audio at 24-bit/48kHz, providing studio-level quality for all your projects.

Customise and control your sound

The MV7i comes equipped with advanced DSP features like a Real-Time Denoiser, Digital Popper Stopper, and Adjustable Reverb, giving you control over every detail of your sound. With the MOTIV Mix app, you can configure DSP settings, personalise the multi-colour LED panel, and even update firmware to access new features, keeping your setup future-ready.

Seamless compatibility and monitoring

With USB-C output, the MV7i works seamlessly with computers, smartphones, and tablets, including MFi certification for iPhone and iPad. The zero-latency 3.5mm headphone jack allows you to monitor both microphone and input audio in real-time, ensuring every recording meets your expectations. Flexible recording modes, from mono to stereo, offer the versatility you need for podcasts, music, and more.
