Pros’ Opinions on Shure MV7 and MV7+

Hey folks!

I’m decided to try and step back into the field of voice acting after years of being on hiatus.

Right now, I just need some honest feedback/advice, because people’s opinions online are contradictory to the nth degree about the Shure MV7 and MV7+

Some say the MV7 is better, isolates sound, doesn’t mess about with auto gain, etc., while others say that the MV7+ simply sounds better with no fuss (in that it has real-time onboard processing for denoising and reverb, has a digital pop-filter, and and auto level mode “that keeps your level steady without you riding a fader”, whatever that means).

Then there are folks that say the MV7+ has issues that a firmware update is needed to fix, with some saying the update fixed things while others saying it makes things worse.

I can buy either, but I really need to know which direction to pick here. It’s between these two mics for a variety of reasons, so no need to look outside these two options. Currently living on the go with no real home or a place to have proper treatment, with all my professional gear from years ago stuck in storage (can’t access or use my stuff anytime soon), so I need the USB connectivity and all the help I can get from these mics to keep the audio clean.

Sorry for the long-winded message. All feedback is much appreciated!
