What’s it like to use the Shure MV88+?
-
It’s a brilliant little plug-and-go mic which can record high-res stereo audio from 16bit/48kHz to 24bit/48kHz. Being able to then directly edit said recordings from your phone further streamlines the production process.
-
The cylindrical capsule has two inputs: microUSB and a 3.5mm headphone jack. This allows you to adjust the gain as needed, saving you from dawdling with settings in post-production. Between the inputs is an LED indicator. When it’s green, you’re good to go.
-
If it’s a static amber, there’s an error, while a flashing amber is indicative of the firmware updating. If it’s red, the mic is muted, and a flashing red means audio is clipping.
Is the Shure MV88+ Video Kit better than a phone mic?
- Yes. The Shure MV88+ is conclusively better than a smartphone’s integrated microphone. As you can see from our frequency response charts, recordings are neutral-leaning.
- This means you can do more with post-processing without running into distortion issues. While Shure does provide five digital signal processing (DSP) options via the ShurePlus Motiv app, the flat profile is the most versatile. If you know you’re going to edit the audio later, use this setting.
