Shure MOTIV MV88+ Video Kit Features :

• The kit comes complete with all you need to capture great-sounding content on your smartphone right out of the box, with high-resolution stereo recording at up to 24-bit/48 kHz. Your MV88+ mic slides snugly into the versatile mic clip, allowing you to mount it on your phone using the phone clamp. The clamp adjusts to fit any size smartphone—you can even leave the case on.
• Attach the industry-leading Manfrotto PIXI mini tripod to the clamp, position your phone, and get the shot you want. The versatile tripod can be placed on a desktop or folded into a grip for handheld work. To connect and power the mic, use either the included 15″ Lightning or USB Type-C cable with your iOS or Android phone.
• The mic’s built-in headphone output lets you properly monitor your sound in real time so you can always know what you’re recording and be sure your video sounds great. Slip the windscreen over the mic to reduce wind noise, and you’re ready to fire up the MOTIV app.

  Shure MOTIV MV88+ Video Kit  is Elegant Yet Rugged

  • The MV88+ Video Kit provides mobile journalists and documentary makers with a compact, sturdy rig that projects professionalism wherever you take it.
  • With a protective foam windscreen and an all-metal body, the microphone is designed to hold up to the rigors of field work and deliver reliable, pristine sound every time.

  Freedom of Placement for the Sound You Need

  • The MV88+ Video Kit offers a range of set up configurations for a variety of applications. When self-recording and livestreaming, press the quick-adjust red button on the tripod to release the ball head and position your phone and MV88+ mic in a widescreen orientation on a desktop. For videography work, simply pivot the mic to the other direction, so it faces the talent.
  • For handheld work, including audio-only applications, the PIXI tripod legs fold to form a grip that lets you move around with your phone and follow the talent in the field. This gives you the freedom to bring your mic close to the subject and capture clear-sounding interviews or wide stereo ambience.
  • Alternatively, videographers can mount the kit on any large tripod using the 1/4″-20 thread on the phone clamp.

  Get the Most Out of Your Kit

  • To quickly and efficiently reduce wind noise on outdoor shoots, a furry windjammer is an essential add-on that will greatly improve your sound.
