Shure MV88 USB-C Stereo Microphone

Shure MV88 USB-C Stereo Microphone for Professional Smartphone Recordings

If you value first-class sound for video recordings, interviews, or podcasts on your smartphone, this compact condenser microphone is a reliable recommendation. The Shure MV88 USB-C Stereo Microphone overcomes the typical challenges of built-in phone microphones, which often make voices sound tinny and capture unwanted ambient noise unfiltered. This compact audio solution minimizes disruptive background noise directly upon plugging in and adapts flexibly to your recording situation. Secure a level of audio quality that instantly enhances your recordings.

Your Benefits at a Glance

• Flexible condenser microphone with USB-C connectivity: Connect directly to compatible mobile devices and computers for immediate operation without additional cables.
• Adjustable polar patterns: Four selectable polar patterns allow precise adjustment for speech, vocals, or room sound.
• Integrated real-time denoiser: Effectively reduces background noise to guarantee clear and intelligible speech transmission.
• Intelligent Auto Level Mode: Automatically controls the microphone gain from 0 dB to 36 dB for consistently constant audio levels.

First-Class Sound Components for Detailed Audio Recordings

The Shure MV88 USB-C Stereo Microphone is based on a high-quality condenser capsule that covers a wide frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Precise signal processing with a resolution of 24-bit and a sampling rate of 48 kHz captures voices and instruments exactly as they sound in real life. The robust aluminum housing protects the sensitive technology in everyday use while providing reliable shielding against external interference. In combination with the included foam windscreen, you can achieve clean audio recordings even in windy outdoor conditions, as disruptive air movements are effectively intercepted before they reach the capsule.

Adjustable Polar Patterns for Every Recording Situation

To achieve optimal results in different environments, the Shure MV88 USB-C Stereo Microphone can be flexibly configured. You can choose between an adjustable stereo angle of 60 to 135 degrees, a classic cardioid pattern for directional speech recordings, a bidirectional figure-eight pattern, or the Raw Mid-Side mode. For example, when conducting an interview in a busy setting, the cardioid pattern rejects side noise and focuses solely on the person speaking. For documenting concerts or ambient sounds, the wide stereo mode captures the entire room environment faithfully. This acoustic flexibility makes the microphone a versatile tool for mobile productions.

Digital Optimization and Intuitive App Control

The integrated signal processing of the Shure MV88 USB-C Stereo Microphone completely takes care of complex settings for you when desired. The integrated real-time denoiser is specifically optimized for the spoken word and filters out constant background noises such as the hum of air conditioners or street noise. At the same time, the built-in limiter in combination with a multi-stage compressor protects against sudden level peaks and unpleasant clipping, even at a maximum sound pressure level of up to 120 dB SPL. Through the free Shure MOTIV Apps, you can also activate a configurable 5-band equalizer as well as a high-pass filter at 75 Hz or 150 Hz. This allows you to perfectly tailor the sound profile to your requirements and obtain a broadcast-ready audio signal without post-processing.
