Shure Mics Compared for Podcasting (SM7b, MV7, MV7X, SM58, SM57, Beta 58A, SM48, PGA58 / 48 & MORE)

Today, I have the 13 different Shure Microphones in the Audio Hotline Studio! It is a GIANT comparison to help any of you determine what mic you may want to use in a podcast situation. If you want me to test these mics out in any other ways, let me know!
All the Mics included (organized by type):
"Broadcast Style" Mics:
Shure SM7b
Shure MV7
Shure MV7X
Dynamic Handheld Mics:
Shure SM58
Shure SM57
Shure Beta 58A
Shure SM48
Shure PGA58
Shure PGA48
Shure SV100
Condenser Mics (mostly handheld):
Shure Beta 87A
Shure SM86
Shure PGA181

In addition to me putting each of these mics again similar types, I also do a GIGANTIC blind comparison... Like it is very long. Good Luck!

If you have any questions about any of the mics, let me know in the comments!

Thanks for watching the Audio Hotline! I'll see you Audio Nerds next time!
