Product description

• 2 x Shure SM7B Vocal Microphone
  • Mic Shootout 3: Dynamic Microphones
  • Shure Mike's "Ultimate Chopper Drop Test
  The Shure SM7B Vocal Microphone is a dynamic microphone with a smooth, flat, wide-range frequency response appropriate for music and speech in all professional audio applications.
  
  It features a cardioid polar pattern, bass roll-off and midrange emphasis (presence boost) controls, and shielding against broadband interference. An internal air suspension shock isolation helps to eliminate mechanical noise transmission and a yoke mount facilitates mounting and provides precise control of the mic position.
  Flat, Wide-Range Frequency Response
  • The flat-frequency response enhances the midrange and high frequencies that are associated with the human voice.
  Rejection of Electromagnetic Hum
  • Improved rejection of electromagnetic hum, optimized for shielding against broadband interference emitted by computer monitors.
  Air Suspension Shock Isolation
  • Internal air suspension shock isolation virtually eliminates mechanical noise transmission.
  Pop Filter
  • The built-in pop filter eliminates the need for any add-on protection against explosive breath sounds, even for close-up vocals or narration.
  Cardioid Polar Pattern
  • Cardioid polar pattern effectively isolates signal source improving gain before feedback.

• Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter CL-2 Mic Activator
  • Mic Shootout 3: Dynamic Microphones
  • Shure Mike's "Ultimate Chopper Drop Test
  The Cloudlifter CL-2 Mic Activator from Cloud Microphones is a compact, dual-input solution for common audio problems in the field and in the studio involving low-output passive microphones, including ribbons. The CL-2 uses any standard phantom-powered mixer or microphone input device to provide up to +25 dB of clean, transparent gain. This improves signal-to-noise ratio and improves the performance of passive microphone signals by driving stronger, cleaner signals over longer XLR cable runs, making them ideal for broadcast, live, and studio applications. The CL-2 is housed in a rugged steel enclosure which offers shielding and durability.
  Transparent Gain
  • Gives passive mics up to +25 dB additional active output and keeps the direct audio path free-and- clear of transformers, capacitors, and resistors. The CL-2 houses discrete JFET circuitry that delivers clean gain while preserving the natural sonic characteristics of the source
  Useful for a Variety of Applications
  • • Use with noisy or low-gain preamps
    • Use with mixers/preamps that negatively impact the sound at higher gain setting
    • Use with low-output dynamic microphones and ribbons
