is it possible..?

alright sm7b came in the mail today! ill update you guys on how things play out with just the m-aud preamp
 
wow! this is such a step up from the previous mic we were using!

turns out we dont need to buy preamp just yet, its perfectly loud enough.

sounds so clear and pristine for singing i love it!

also picks up all the subtle noises for screaming that are needed!
 
Just got my own SM7B this afternoon and while there's not much to talk about because of the fact I've used them before in studios I can still say that I'm surprised that my Mbox2 has enough gain to drive it (and I'll be damned if I can hear any noise...)
 
I use My SM7b thru my GT Brick. And it has plenty of gain...the brick has +55db's of gain.....while that might not be enough gain to do speech's or broadcasting.....It's plenty for Male Screaming/Death Vocals....As long as the singer has balls and he is right up in the mic...
i take my windscreen off and use my own pop filter and i usually tell the singer to almost put his lips on the pop filter.

so yeah...
 
my vocalist just got a sm7b but we dont have a preamp with high enough gain let alone clean enough.

so we are wondering if we could run the mic through our yam. emx5000 with rca cables into my m-audio 10/10lt?

would it provide sufficient gain?

would it just be a bad idea all around?

or should i just save some cash up for a decent mic pre with high enough?

OR is there a plugin that might help with the low output problem?

Use PodFarm.

You'd get plenty of stuff to drool over.
