GENERAL

The Model SM7A is a dynamic microphone with a very smooth,

flat, wide-range frequency response. It is meticulously designed
for the most exacting music and speech requirements in profes-
sional audio applications. The cartridge has been updated from
the original SM7 with improved shielding against electromagnetic
hum generated by computer monitors, neon lights, and other
electrical devices.

Features

Flat, wide-range frequency response for exceptionally
clean and natural reproduction of both music and speech

Bass rolloff and mid-range emphasis (presence boost)
controls with graphic display of response setting (see
figure 3)

Improved rejection of electromagnetic hum, optimized for
shielding against broadband interference emitted by com-
puter monitors

Internal “air suspension” shock isolation virtually eliminates
mechanical noise transmission

Highly effective pop filter eliminates need for any add-on
protection against explosive breath sounds, even for
close-up vocals or narration

Yoke mounting with captive stand nut for easy mounting
and dismounting provides precise control of microphone
position

Cardioid polar pattern, uniform with frequency and symmet-
rical about axis, to provide maximum rejection and mini-
mum coloration of off-axis sound

Rugged construction and excellent cartridge protection for
outstanding reliability

APPLICATIONS

The Model SM7A was field-designed in major recording stu-

dios and scoring stages to be the finest dynamic microphone
available for music recording and reproduction. Exacting labora-
tory development programs augmented the field-derived specifi-
cations and features to extend the advantages of the SM7A to
a wide variety of critical professional audio applications.

The exceptional performance and unique features of the SM7A

make it the outstanding choice for such applications as:

Recording Studio—Instrumental and Vocal

Location Recording

Motion Picture and Television Scoring

Television Talk Shows and News Desks

Radio Announcing and Production

Narration

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

The SM7A can be mounted on a microphone stand or hung

from a boom. It is shipped in the boom mounting configuration
(see figure 1). To set up the SM7A in the microphone stand
mounting configuration (see figure 2), proceed as follows:

1. Remove tightening nuts on the sides (see figure 7).

2. Remove the fitted washers, the lock washers, the outer

brass washers, and the brass sleeves.

3. Slide the bracket off the microphone. Be careful not to lose

the washers still on the microphone.

4. Invert and rotate the bracket. Slide it back onto the bolts

over the brass and plastic washers still on the microphone.
The bracket should fit so the XLR connector faces the rear
of the microphone, and the Shure logo on the back of the
microphone is right-side up.

5. Replace the brass sleeves. Be sure they are seated proper-

ly within the inner washers.

6. Replace the outer brass washers, the lock washers and the

fitted washers.

7. Replace the tightening nuts and tighten the microphone at

the desired angle.

NOTE: If the tightening nuts do not hold the microphone
in position, one or both of the brass sleeves may not be
properly seated within all the washers.
