Latest news
- Oct 17: Lower Street has launched a video podcast production service. The founder and CEO Harry Morton announced the company’s approach in a video - filmed sitting in a field with three cows, seemingly in the pursuit of a metaphor about yoghurt. The company’s philosophy is that a video podcast shouldn’t just be a repurposed audio recording; we suspect it’s also learnt that Shure SM7Bs should ideally be kept away from Aberdeen Angus dairy cattle. You can watch the a-moo-sing video over here.
- Apr 15: Rolling Stone has run an “audio awards”. RØDE and Shure are both familiar brands that have won, in more than sixty categories. (Many of the links to buy the award-winners are affiliate links, though we don’t see anywhere that discloses that.)

- Sep 6, 2024: Shure has released the MV6 gaming microphone. It’s a dynamic, USB-C connected microphone (with a stand); its software offers auto-level and a “popper stopper”, but no compression or complex EQ.
- Aug 21, 2024: Shure has released the SM4 “home recording microphone”. It’s a side-address, condenser microphone: the release and website neglects to mention XLR or USB, but it’s a 48v-powered XLR, since you wondered.
