V7 SWITCH

Dynamic · Supercardioid · 40–19,000 Hz

  • A V7 with a reed on/off switch — the version house engineers buy for lectern and guest-speaker duty.
  • Identical capsule and output to the plain V7, so the two can share a channel strip setting.

Frequency response

No response curve yet.

MicSense only draws a curve redrawn from a graph the manufacturer publishes — it never estimates one from the microphone’s class. No published graph has been redrawn for the V7 SWITCH yet, so the numbers are in the spec table below.

Polar pattern

Generated from the first-order directivity formula for supercardioid. It illustrates the pattern type — it is not a measurement of this individual model.

Introduced— not recorded

Price tier and “a rider regular” are MicSense’s own judgement, not the maker’s.

What it gets used for

  • FOH vocal
  • Monitor vocal
  • Lectern / podium

MicSense tags microphones by the job on a live stage, not by studio category — so you can filter for “kick in” or “monitor vocal” instead of working backwards from “large-diaphragm condenser”.

V7 SWITCH alternatives: closest in published specs

Based on published specifications only — always listen at soundcheck. These are the microphones in the MicSense library whose datasheet figures sit closest to the sE Electronics V7 SWITCH’s for the same live job, with the reasons. It says nothing about how they sound.
