Versatile Stereo & Mono Recording

This makes the MV88+ a true 'Swiss Army knife' for any recording application.

Powerful App-Based Control

Unlock the microphone's full potential with the free ShurePlus MOTIV desktop and mobile apps. Effortlessly control microphone gain, apply a limiter or compressor to prevent distortion, and shape your sound with a 5-band EQ. This deep integration turns your recording setup into a powerful and intuitive audio workstation.

Integrated Headphone Monitoring

Ensure your audio is perfect every time with the built-in 3.5mm headphone output. This critical feature allows for real-time, zero-latency monitoring of your recording and playback, so you can hear exactly what the microphone is capturing without any distracting delay. Adjust your performance and settings with confidence.
