The Shure SM7B is a VERY expensive mic. But for good reason as it's a studio quality microphone that's been used the world over by musicians and professional recording artists. As you'll see though, it delivers incredible sound, especially when paired with the GoXLR Mini pre-amp.
I've been using this setup for my recent video voice overs and for Twitch Streaming and it's been magnificent.

It's a really tight pick up pattern which needs to be set close to your mouth to get the best results. I'd recommend the Blue Compass boom arm as a solution - [ Ссылка ]
