Getting started in streaming or podcasting currently does not require large investments. There are many ways and platforms to get started. Succeeding on these platforms now depends more on the talent and work of each user.
Acquiring a medium-quality microphone requires a large outlay. The “good” models usually require power amplifiers or adapters to connect them to the computer. This is why many opt for USB microphones, which are sometimes somewhat worse.
Shure launches new digital audio interface
Higher quality professional-grade microphones usually come with XLR connector. They are designed to be connected to an amplifier or mixing console, not to the computer. Shure has created a clever and simple solution to this problem.
To solve this, Shure has developed the MVX2U converter. We are talking about a coupling that connects to the microphone which enables connect it to the computer through USB. This adapter eliminates any sound quality barrier to get as close to professional sound standards as possible.
It is characterized by being compact and discreet, offering access to software ShurePlus MOTIV Desktop. This tool can be used with any XLR microphone and allows for gain up to 60 dB without distortions. Additionally, this adapter can act as a phantom power source for condenser microphones.
MVX2U adds a powerful DSP allowing for extensive customization and easy use using ShurePlus MOTIV Desktop. We can transform any XLR microphone into a USB one without losing quality, quite the opposite.
This adapter adds the Auto Level mode who acts as a “virtual sound technician.” Allows you to adjust the gain in real time to provide smooth audio output. It simplifies the work of the content creator, who can focus on his work without wasting time on audio settings.
Shure wanted this adapter to be compatible with any XLR microphone. We can connect it directly to the microphone or to the end of the cable in question. It gives users enormous versatility and comfort of use.
Use a professional microphone on your computer, easily
Something very interesting about MVX2U is that it allows you to obtain a gain of 60 dB without distortions. Allows the microphone to operate at its best capacity. It also powers condenser microphones, something that is not usually common for adapters.
The adapter does not require extensive knowledge, as it is easily installed on the microphone. It connects to the computer via USB, being completely plug and play. This adapter has a USB-C connector, so we can use any cable to connect it to the computer, although a 1-meter USB-C to USB-C cable is included in the box.
At the moment the Shure MVX2U is only on the manufacturer’s website for a price of 149 euros with free shipping costs.
