Developed by Shure sound engineers, the multiple choice Mic Match quiz enables artists to discover the best microphone to help address their needs. Each question highlights the most important factors to consider when choosing a microphone and presents them in an easy way. Questions range from ‘I plan to record my next song… A) in a studio B) on-the-go C) at home’ to ‘My vocals are… A) loud and powerful B) soft and subtle.’ The multi-step quiz addresses vocalist priorities in the moment and chooses the best microphone for their environment.

“Choosing the right microphone is an important first step for all musicians,” said Paul Crognale, Senior Manager of Musician and Consumer Audio Marketing at Shure. “We value the investment and hope to ease the worry when selecting professional audio gear. From the beginning, Shure has supported artists at every stage of their journey, providing education and guidance along the way.”

The series is hosted by musicians Isabelle Banos, Lorenzo Burroughs aka Lxgend, and Peggy Hogan aka Hua Li, and addresses topics ranging from how to produce a vocal session to creative vocal processing.The co-branded content examines why the right audio gear is crucial to recording high-quality vocals.
