According to our studio microphone expert
You can record your own professional podcast with the Shure MV7. this USB and XLR microphone has Voice Isolation technology. This way, the microphone will focus on your voice and it'll barely record ambient noise or other sounds. You can download the ShurePlut MOTIV app to adjust all settings of the microphone. Now it'll be exactly as you want it for your podcast. Because the microphone works via USB, you don't need an external sound card. You can connect it to the computer and start recording right away. Via the XLR connector, you can also connect the microphone to other devices.

With its XLR connection, this microphone is not that exciting. So if you're planning to use it mostly, I'd spend a little more and buy its big brother the SM7. The sound is a little less deep.
Where the MV7 excels is of course its USB connection, through which you can immediately use the microphone without an amplifier and audio interface.
With the app and where you can set everything, the sound is very close to that of an SM7, as I would do, after amplification, compressor and EQ. You really have that deep radio DJ voice sound.
The headphone connection is on an internal loop, so you can hear yourself right back without delay.
The only thing I have to criticize are the plosives (pop sounds) at p and b sounds. The SM7 handles that much better than the MV7. You could put a pop filter in front of it, but with that you increase the distance between your mouth and the microphone, and you lose some of that deep radio DJ sound.
The best solution I've found is to swap the plop hood with that of the SM7 (RK 345). It is a bit larger and thicker, so it filters the plosives better and fits well over the MV7. Costs 2 bucks but really brings the sound of the MV7 to the next level.
Another small minus point I find that there is a micro USB connection on the microphone itself. USB-C has been on the market for almost 8 years, I think it is not really possible to bring consumer electronics to the market with micro USB in 2021.
