Create a recording studio wherever and whenever you need it with the compact MOTIV MVI Digital Audio Interface from Shure. This ultra-portable digital audio interface boasts a combined XLR and 6.3mm input to connect a professional XLR microphone or 1/4" instrument output to a computer or mobile device (PC, Mac, or iOS) via a Lightning connector. When connected to a laptop/PC, the MVI also supplies the phantom power required to operate condenser microphones.
The unit has 5 preset DSP modes (speech, singing, flat, acoustic instrument, and loud) which configure for EQ, compression, and limiter settings so you can start recording immediately. The built-in touch panel also provides precision control over gain, mute, and headphone volume. If you want to fine-tune your recording for a specific purpose, you can adapt the limiter, compressor, and five-band EQ manually to find a unique sound. Adjust manual audio settings on iOS devices via the Lightning connector and using the included ShurePlus MOTIV app.
Boasting an all-metal construction, the MVI is designed to provide reliable performance, while its smaller build makes it easy to fit into any size setup. It features a built-in JFET Class A buffered instrument preamplifier input for exceptional tone and clarity. Included with the MVI Digital Audio Interface are a MicroB-to-USB Cable and a USB-C-to-MicroUSB Cable for easy connectivity options right out of the box.
