Shure SM7B Microphone with Switchable Response
The flat, 50Hz-20kHz frequency response of the Shure SM7B Microphone with Switchable Response is designed especially for spoken word, but recording engineers have discovered that it's also an exceptional mic for adding body to thin vocals and handling loud rock/metal singers. It also has the ability to tame harsh or sibilant sounds from hi-hat, cymbals, and voice. The SM7B is highly shielded against electrical interference, and includes bass roll-off and mid-range emphasis (presence boost) controls with graphic display, and internal "air suspension" shock isolation. It ships with a standard windscreen and an A7WS detachable windscreen for close-talk applications.

Application note: The SM7B is a low output mic, so plugging direct into an audio interface may not offer enough gain. In such a case you need a preamp with a decent amount of gain. Due to its smooth sound and thickening characteristics, a transparent-sounding preamp will be a preferred choice. (See our Preamp Buying Guide for a thorough discussion of transparent vs. color preamps.)

S896+ Studio Boom Mic Stand
The SB96+ Studio Boom Microphone Stand features a telescoping vertical shaft and extra-long telescoping boom with solid steel counterweight. It also has a 40-tooth boom clutch, Posi-Lok mini-boom arm, four folding, and locking legs with casters. The Posi-Lok design has 52 teeth for versatile mic angles, rotates 300 degrees, and has an ergonomic adjustment knob.
