Shure MVX2U Overview

Why choose between analog or USB microphones when you can have both with the MVX2U MOTIV XLR to USB Streaming Adapter from Shure, a handy XLR 3-pin female to USB-C adapter plug that turns any XLR-based microphone into a USB mic. With 60 dB of gain, you can easily drive most microphones, including the Shure SM7B, making this adapter a vital tool in the arsenal of any recordist, content creator, or musician.

The adapter sports a USB-C output and a 3.5mm headphone jack for direct monitoring. LED indicators let you know the status of operation (green for On, yellow for Error, red for Mute). The MVX2U features automatic level adjustment right out of the box, so you don't have touch a thing for instant setup. And if that's not enough, you also get remote configuration over USB via the free MOTIV desktop app.
