The SM7DB is a better podcast mic for sure, especially in rooms that aren't well treated. It also does great for vocals (singing, etc) - but is different sounding (warmer/boomier). It has a built-in preamp so the noise floor is low when you increase the gain and you get far less of the room noise which is super important for podcasts and making thinner voices sound more full. But if you want to use a mic that can be used in both home studio and performance situations - the Nexadyne is a great option as not only looks great as a performance vocal mic in addition to killing all the mic bleed you may get onstage. You can hear in the video that the Nexadyne has more clarity, so you may want to treat your home studio somewhat to avoid any unwanted reverb from the room. Does this help you?

Super helpful, definitely want to get the SM7dB at some point because of its versatility. The Nexadyne 8/s is checking off a lot of boxes at the moment due to needing a microphone that will cut through the stage bleed and add mid/highs to a voice is that is already warm. I’m also thinking it’s off axis reduction of noise will be helpful ro record vocals in a room that has not been professionally treated. It would be nice to buy a condenser microphone but it’s been suggested to me they only be used in professionally treated rooms. Gonna bite the bullet and give it a try🙏

@@agenxphyte Nice! Let us know how you go with it! It's also far less expensive than the SM7DB! Good luck and have fun!

We've had requests as some performers want something versatile and we also compare it to the SM58, which is known for performance. Thanks for watching!
