V7 MC2

I own a 441 and a V7. They are remarkably similar. The 441’s hi shelf switch adds a touch of sweetness not found on the V7 but it’s not worth the extra $. What is worth the extra $ is the cool factor though! It has a certain visual weight and presence on stage that adds up. V7 needs less gain, both reject feeback similary. Either way the V7 is my fave cheap vocal mic for live. The 441 is my fave mic overall

https://youtu.be/txMB2nWixHM?si=vdQbJ0mzD3aafSum we use shields like this nowadays, with gobos it really works to keep cymbal bleed out of vocal mics. Also SEV7 on vocals and make sure the drums are placed in their off axis region.

I like the SE V7. The wired mic and capsule for wireless are pretty budget-friendly.

try super cardiod mics like the se v7 or even shure beta 58a. have your drummer tape his cymbals. turn guitars and bass down on stage. use in ear monitor. project your voice more but not like you are doing to hurt yourself etc

I do live sound and do my best to never use on. The SE v7 beats it completely in sound with less harsh highs, less boomy plosives, and significantly better at not feeding back.

I got my two Beyerdynamic m58's (which are their version of the EV 635\[a\], omni dynamic mics "intended for" location sound for news) for €50 each. I use them on a lot of stuff, but mainly mono drum overhead and backing vocals. Also the 635a, but you can't get them for \~$40 like I did anymore. I got a Josephson c42 (84 clone) at GC Hollywood for $40, but I'm reasonably sure it was mis-marked. The sE v7 is my *favorite* live vocal mic for low males, bar none, and it is under $€100 new. I end up using it in the studio for scratches, and sometimes they stick. My favorite for females and high males is the Lewitt W950, though, and it ain't cheap. The Line Audio SDC's are insanely good and useful for their new price. Same goes for the Lewitt 140 AIR, but it is a bit more limited because of its high boost.
