Features
A Mid-Side Stereo Microphone
The classic mid-side stereo microphone technique uses two coincident capsules: one cardioid pointed directly at the source, and one bidirectional aimed toward the sides. This configuration allows the user to adjust the stereo width and provides excellent mono compatibility.
Plug-and-Play Operation
The MV88 is compatible with any iOS device equipped with a Lightning connector.
Compact and Durable
The MV88 features lightweight, all-metal construction and is small enough to carry anywhere. Like all Shure products, the MV88 ensures reliability in the field.
Flexible Recording Control with the ShurePlus MOTIV app
The MOTIV recording app controls MV88 settings, such as gain, stereo width, and preset modes, and also includes the following features:
- Basic audio editing
- Markers for keeping track of audio
- Dark theme for low-light recording situations
- Mono microphone support
- Support for all MOTIV microphones
- Dropbox™, AirPlay® and Bluetooth® support
- Multiple bit depth and sample rate options
Quick Setup
The MV88 is compatible with mobile devices that have a Lightning connector.
- Plug the microphone into the Lightning connector on the iOS device.
