Shure MV88 Overview

  • 2A Simple Multi-Purpose Solution
  • 3High-Quality Audio
  • 4Handy Companion Software

People who need a professional sound out of an iOS-compatible clip-on mic will delight in the Shure MOTIV MV88, a convenient microphone that lets you record anything from in-field interviews to stereo musical performances with high-quality audio. The microphone simply clips into the lightning port of your device, mounting there as well.

Once affixed, the mic can be positioned in a variety of ways to get the kind of professional audio capture you desire. The companion Shure App lets you select among five DSP presets: choose between two different mono modes for different purposes, or capture everything in naturalistic stereo. The mic is plug-and-play, powering directly from your iOS device. A windscreen is included for filming in windy locales.

A Simple Multi-Purpose Solution

Shure made this mic to handle a variety of tasks in mobile settings. You can adjust the 90° hinge to point the mic where you want, and even switch the left-right orientation of the capsule. This makes the mic useful for selfie-social videos, mobile interviews, two-way interviews, and capturing performances in stereo.

High-Quality Audio

The mic captures audio in high-quality 48 kHz/24-bit, making it suitable for use with professional editing applications. You can choose one of two mono modes: Cardioid will focus the capture on what's directly in front of the mic, like a shotgun microphone. Bidirectional will provide even capture on either side of the mic, making it great for two-way interviews in a mono format. Finally, you can choose to use both the cardioid and bidirectional capsules together; since they're configured in an M/S orientation, they'll give you a naturalistic stereo response.

Handy Companion Software

The ShurePlus MOTIV audio app gives you the ability to record studio-quality audio—and so much more. Choose among the five DSP presets. Modify the gain and EQ. Trim and share your clips in multiple formats. Do it all with a few quick taps. Recording video? Use the MOTIV Video App. The mic works with both.

Will this work with the dji osmo pocket?
Asked by: Luis
No, Unfortunately the MV88 will not work with the DJI Osmo Pocket. The MV88 only works with IOS devices. In order to properly control the MV88 you need to use the free app that comes with the device.

Is this mic compatible with MP3 Pro Software?
Asked by: Norris G
MP3 Pro software is only for use with a Windows computer and not available as an app for iPhone or iPad which are the compatible devices for the MV88. You can transfer any audio files recorded on an iPhone or iPad with the MV88 and send them to a Windows computer running MP3 Pro.

with audio wav file - it says it can be exported and edited using other software. Question: when wav is edited in, say, garage band app, perhaps creating a multitrack recording - does that still stay in sync with the video?
Asked by: Eric
To my knowledge a WAV file is a separate and independent audio file. So any syncing would need to be done yourself when adding the audio to your video editing timeline. It would not be synced with a highly accurate time code. I’m not a professional editor although I have taken editing classes. And I believe it’s common practice to use an external audio recorder and sync the audio source to the video manually in the video editor. The motiv microphone and apps are not providing anything to that syncing step - just capturing the audio.

question

Will this work with iPad dictation (the one that is available on any text field in any app by clicking the mic key to the left of the space key on the on-screen keyboard)?
Asked by: AVRAHAM N.
Great question! The mic is app dependent, and from my conversations with Shure techs, the MV88 will not work with iPad dictation. You may consider researching 3rd party apps like Dragon speak which may allow you to use the MV88 as the main microphone for dictation.

Is there adapter that will work with this and the new iPad Pro that is USB-C?
Asked by: Robbin
The MV88 only works with IOS Lightning adapter devices. Shure has yet to authorize any adapters that will work using a USB-C to Lightning adapter. Therefore I would not recommend attempting this because I can not guarantee that it will work efficiently, if at all.
