Review on πŸŽ™οΈ Shure MV51 Digital Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone with USB and Lightning Cable by Melissa Kula

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Totally in love with this microphone.

Being a fairly new streamer, I was encouraged by a friend to create game content with a certain company and chose this mic as my "entry mic". to the next level, let's call it 'Sweati' lol I wasn't happy with the move in that direction, instead I remembered being a trainee at a radio station in high school and encountering high-end audio gear. What brought me to Shure I've always liked the Super 55, but since I don't want to play with an XLR and a mixer, and might need a cloud lighter etc., I went looking for USB mics, something which would give me the same atmosphere as the microphone. Super 55, then I saw the MV51, the fact that it looked so much like an old-school Shure Model 51 Sonodyne dynamic microphone won me over almost immediately. Metal construction e I should have paid a lot more for this mic, hooking it up and integrating it with OBS was a breeze, my first live stream, my viewers loved the sound quality, the built in DSP settings really helped boost my voice to bring it to the level that i wanted it to be all along, not only do i get comments on the sound but everyone LOVES the look of this mic it's different it's not "meta" and that's what I love about this one Microphone. My only complaint and don't give less than 5 stars for the length of the cord, luckily I had a fairly long cord that worked great. I can't say enough great things about this mic, thanks Shure for helping me take my live broadcast to the next level!
