Aiming the Microphone

The following suggestions are for typical use cases. Keep in mind that there are many effective ways to record a source. Experiment to find what works best for you. The MV88+ fits into a standard A25D mic clip. So, you can place it anywhere that you can put a mic stand.

 

Tip: For correct stereo orientation, ensure that the Shure name is clearly visible on the top of the microphone. If the name is not visible, adjust the microphone accordingly.

Audio Recording

Position your recording device so you can monitor the recording. Aim the front of the microphone toward the source, with left and right sides of the microphone barrel facing the appropriate directions.

 

Landscape (Horizontal)

Aim the front of the microphone toward the source. Ensure that the left and right sides of the microphone barrel are facing the appropriate sides.

 

Audio Interview (Tabletop)

Attach the mic clip directly onto the Manfrotto mic stand. Select the MONO BIDIRECTIONAL polar pattern in the Shure MOTIV app. Point one side of the microphone barrel toward the subject and the other toward the interviewer.

 

Video Interview

  • To record audio from on-camera audio only, select the CARDIOID polar pattern and point the microphone toward your subject. 

 

 

  • To capture the voices of both the on-camera subject and the off-camera interviewer, select the MONO BIDIRECTIONAL polar pattern in the app. Position the microphone with the left and right sides facing each person.

Handheld Recording

The legs collapse to create a portable hand-held stand.

 

The Shure MOTIV App

Use the Shure MOTIV app to change microphone settings and to record, edit, and share audio. The device stores the most recently used settings for quick setup each time you record.

Tip: Turn on Airplane Mode and Do Not Disturb to prevent interruptions to the recording caused by phone calls, text messages, or alerts.

Mic Setup

 

Tap Mic Setup on the navigation bar to access microphone controls

 

 

① Lock Mode Toggle between Locked and Unlocked settings to prevent accidental changes to settings when handling your device during recording. When mic settings are Locked, the setting screen is grayed out.

② Mic/Record Status When the app is recording, a red dot flashes next to the name of the connected microphone. The icons display the effects are in use.

③ Input Meter Displays the strength of the input signal and whether that signal is mono or stereo. The loudest peaks should reach within the target range (indicated by the shaded region between -12 and 0 dB).

④ Microphone Gain/Monitor Mix Button Adjust the mic gain slider to set the volume of the sound source. Tap the button to access monitor mix settings. See "Monitor Mix Blend" on monitor adjustment.

⑤ Preset Modes Set stereo width, equalization, and compression for specific applications. See "Preset Modes" for more information.

⑥ Polar Pattern Selection Swipe to choose your pick-up pattern. Use the handles to adjust the width of the stereo image.

Tip: Consider the location of the microphone and the size of the sound source when adjusting the width. For example, a large orchestra or ensemble recording benefits from a wide stereo image, which increases separation between instruments. Speech benefits from a narrow width, which improves clarity and rejects ambient (room) sound.

⑦ Stereo Width Handles Use the dots to quickly set stereo width.

⑧ Advanced Features Fine tune your audio recording with limiter and compressor controls, high pass filter, left-right swap, and equalization settings.

⑨ Navigation Bar Tap to access Mic Setup, Record, and My Recordings screens.

Preset Modes

Five selectable modes optimize settings for gain, stereo width, equalization, and compression. Set the microphone level and try the modes to find which sounds best. Preset modes can affect the strength of the input signal, so adjust the microphone level as needed after changing presets.

 

Mode Application Characteristics

Speech

speech Narrow stereo width to reject background noise, equalization that emphasizes clarity and fullness, and gentle compression.

Singing

solo or group vocal performances Medium stereo width with subtle equalization to add richness and clarity for a natural sound.

Flat

any An unprocessed signal (no equalization or compression settings used). Adds flexibility when processing the audio after recording.

Acoustic

acoustic instruments and quiet music Medium stereo width with transparent compression to smooth out volume spikes and bring out quiet passages. The equalizer setting emphasizes detail and an overall natural sound.

Loud

live performance and louder sources Wide stereo to increase separation between sources. Equalization further improves definition by reducing frequencies that can make the instrumentation sound crowded.

 

Polar Pattern Selection (Stereo and Mono Settings)

The following demonstrates microphone capsule pick-up patterns. When operating in a mono mode, stereo width is not adjustable.

 

Stereo

Front = On

Sides = On

Mono Cardioid

Front = On

Sides = Off

Mono Bidirectional

Front = Off

Sides = On

Raw Mid-Side

Front = On

Sides = On

See "Raw Mid-Side Output" for more information.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Raw Mid-Side Output

For increased post-processing flexibility, use the Raw Mid-Side setting. This records signal a 2-channel signal with a stereo image that can be adjusted even after the tracks have been recorded:

Left: Cardioid (front)

Right: Bidirectional (sides)

Use the Raw Mid-Side setting with audio recording applications that have a mid-side stereo matrix decoder. Or use the manual decoding instructions to adjust the stereo image of the recorded tracks.

Manual Decoding and Stereo Width Adjustment

If your digital audio workstation software (DAW) has no mid-side decoder, use these steps to adjust and manipulate the stereo image:

  1. Extract the left and right audio signals from the 2-channel Raw Mid-Side file as individual mono tracks.
  2. Create 3 blank audio tracks:
    First track Use the audio signal (front/cardioid) from the left channel only as a mono track, panned to the center.
    Second track Use the audio signal (side/bidirectional) from the right channel only as a mono track, panned all the way to the left.
    Third track Copy the side/bidirectional signal from the second track. Pan this track all the way to the right and reverse the phase.
  3. Group the right and left side tracks, and set the volume at the same level for simultaneous adjustment. Increasing the volume of the grouped tracks increases the stereo width, while decreasing their volume narrows the width.

 

Advanced tip: Using compression with a fast attack setting on the grouped tracks keeps transients (the first part of a sound, such as when a drum stick strikes a cymbal) toward the center of the stereo image and allows them to expand within the stereo field as the sound decays.

 

Manual Decoding of Raw Mid-Side Audio

Monitor Mix Blend

Tap the Monitor Mix button to view monitoring controls.

 

 

Use the monitor mix slider to determine how much of each input you hear. For best results, start monitoring at the midpoint and adjust.

  • Move the slider towards the microphone icon (MIC) to hear more of the currently recorded audio.
  • Move the slider towards the device icon (PLAYBACK) to hear more of the previously recorded audio.

 

Left-Right Channel Swap

 

For stereo recordings, use Left - Right Swap to flip the left and right audio channels to match the stereo image to the video. For example, when using video to record yourself.

Tip: Use the L and R indicators on the microphone barrel. This way you can set Left - Right Swap before you start to record.

Equalizer, Limiter, and Compressor

Fine tune your equalizer, limiter, and compressor settings. Change the preset modes to hear the DSP changes, and adjust individual settings to dial in your sound.

Note: Equalization within presets will not be displayed. However, the EQ icon in the Mic Setup screen displays user-selected equalization.

EQ persists between preset mode changes.

 

Choose no compression, or select light, medium, or heavy settings.

Selecting Low-Frequency Response

A three-position switch on the back of the microphone lets you adjust the low-frequency response. Use the low-frequency filter to reduce wind noise, room noise, or proximity effect.

Flat response. Provides the most natural sound in most applications.

Low frequency cutoff. Provides a 6 dB-per-octave cutoff at 75 Hz. Helps eliminate floor rumble and low-frequency room noise from heating and air conditioning systems. This setting may also be used to compensate for proximity effect or to reduce low frequencies that make an instrument sound dull or muddy.

Low frequency rolloff. Provides a 6 dB-per-octave rolloff filter at 150 Hz. Use this to compensate for proximity effect or to reduce low frequencies that could make an instrument sound dull or muddy.

 

Demo Mode

 

Demo mode allows you to try out the functionality of all devices in the MOTIV series. Explore their features in the Shure MOTIV app without a microphone plugged in.

Recording Tips

Turn On Airplane Mode and Do Not Disturb

When you plug a MOTIV device into your iOS device, a warning message prompts you to enable Airplane Mode and Do Not Disturb mode. It's important to do this to avoid recording interference from phone calls, messages, and various notifications. Tap X to dismiss this warning message.

Note: Leave Airplane Mode off to add geolocation information to your audio file.

Use Lock Mode to Lock In Your Sound

When you've tested your audio and have found the levels that you like, turn on Lock mode to prevent accidental adjustment, and ensure that your audio quality remains consistent.

Record in Mono

Record in mono to increase your available record time or when recording a single source, like vocals, that would benefit from less ambient noise. Select the Mono Cardioid or Mono Bidirectional polar pattern and audio from all capsules are summed to a single channel. The input meter will indicate mono recording by displaying the top half of the waveform. MOTIV supports third-party microphones with mono recording.

Record in Stereo

Rotate the MV88+ barrel in the mic clip to accommodate portrait or landscape recording. L and R are labeled to show stereo orientation of the microphone. The stereo image is accurate if the Shure logo is facing upward.

Use the Dark Theme

Select the Dark appearance option to change the app from light gray to dark gray. The darker display is ideal for discreet recording in low-light situations.

You can access the Dark setting by going to Menu > Settings > Appearance > Dark.

Capture the Complete Performance

To ensure that you capture the entire sound source, start your recording before the performance starts and edit the recording later to trim any silence.

Note: If your microphone accidentally becomes disconnected during recording, MOTIV will automatically stop the recording. The save file dialog will appear, prompting you to name and save your audio.

Monitor your Recordings

To make sure that your recordings sound great, plug headphones directly into the headphone output on your MOTIV device.

Keep Screen Awake During Recording

Select the Keep Awake While Recording option so you can continuously monitor gain levels during longer recording sessions without the screen going dark.

You can access the Keep Screen Awake option by going to Menu > Settings > Keep Screen Awake During Recording.

Note: Disabling sleep mode will affect battery time while recording.

Keep equipment connected during updates

Keep the MV88+ connected to your mobile device when updating DSP to ensure that there are no update issues.

Using MV88+ with your Mac and PC

MOTIV microphones do not require special drivers and are compatible with most Mac or PCs. The MV88+ settings (except for mic gain) cannot be adjusted via computer, however, the microphone does retain its last settings as configured by the MOTIV app.

Note: USB-A cable is not included.

Troubleshooting

Issue Solution
Microphone is plugged in, but the volume meter does not register a signal. Edit the privacy setting for your recording device under SETTINGS > PRIVACY > MICROPHONE to give the app permission to use the microphone.
Microphone is plugged in, but not detected. Unplug and reconnect the cable connectors so that the app recognizes the microphone. You'll know that the connection is secure when you see the microphone name visible in the status bar.
You hear no audio despite LEDs and the volume meter responding as if audio is present. Check the Monitor Mix blend to ensure that audio is passing and you can monitor playback. Move the Monitor Mix slider to the center to hear audio that is being currently recorded and previously recorded audio.
Audio sounds bad or distant. To ensure that you are receiving audio from the attached microphone and not a built-in microphone; unplug and reconnect the mic. You'll know that the connection is secure when you see the microphone name visible in the status bar.
Audio is distorted Use the audio meter to ensure that volume peaks are within the target range (the gray area). If the level reaches the red peak indicator of the input meter, turn the gain down.
Left/right stereo channels do not match video Depending on the orientation of the recording device, it may be necessary to engage the Left-Right swap in MOTIV settings. If the audio has already been recorded, you can switch the left and right channels in most audio editing software.

Note: It may be useful to reset the app to restore functionality. Perform a hard reset by unplugging and re-plugging the microphone.

Firmware

Firmware is embedded software in each component that controls functionality. Periodically, new versions of firmware are developed to incorporate additional features and enhancements. To take advantage of design improvements, download new versions of the firmware when prompted.

Tip: For best results, before updating the DSP, make sure that the microphone is connected to the mobile device, and that the device battery is fully charged. Do not disconnect until the update is complete.
