Tl;dr: it’s such a good mic and the inclusion of Variable-D to counter the proximity effect and the higher sensitivity means you should consider this over the SM7B if you’re looking for a vocal mic. I honestly don’t know why it’s not considered more.
My choice was between this, the Shure SM7B and the RE20. This came in cheaper than both, and while the RE20 is the standard for people like me who broadcast on their feet, this is a much hotter mic that requires much less processing to get that lively broadcast sound. It’s got the Variable-D feature of the RE20, so it reduces the proximity effect, and compared to the SM7B it’s much less directional and much more sensitive. You can talk around the mic instead of directly into it, and you can run it through a fairly basic audio interface (I use the Audient Evo 4) and you won’t need any inline preamp for clean gain. Trust me on this one, the Evo 4, while I love its simplicity and sound, has a fairly weak preamp in this class of interface and it might struggle with the SM7B’s low sensitivity – but the RE320 takes it in its stride and I’m just loving it.
