Product details
The MOTIV MV5 is flexible and versatile, making 24 bit/48 kHz audio recording incredibly simple with its plug-and-play functionality. The microphone features three DSP modes, perfect for music, podcasts, or video chats. It is ideal for podcasting/voiceover, digital recording, and is also suitable for video/broadcast, singing, and speech. Easy plug-and-play recording is possible even on the go. The digital MOTIV MV5 delivers high-quality audio recordings via USB or Lightning cable with any PC, Mac, or Apple iOS device. With three DSP presets (vocals, speech, instruments), the MV5 provides appropriate settings for every sound source. It is perfect for music, podcasts, or video chats. The built-in headphone output also allows for latency-free monitoring. Tested under the same strict quality standards as all Shure products, its retro design in various colors and compact form make it the ideal microphone for mobile applications.
Plug-and-play recording is enabled by Apple MFi (Made for iPhone/iPod/iPad) certification.

Automatic adjustments of gain, EQ, compressor, and limiter ensure optimal results. An integrated headphone amplifier allows for real-time monitoring. The optimized microphone capsule ensures high audio quality. It comes with a detachable aluminum desktop stand with a 1/4" thread, suitable for standard tripods. Its handy and portable design stands at just 7 cm tall (14 cm with the desktop stand). Includes USB and Lightning cables. The MOTIV MV5 is compatible with Android devices that support USB Audio Class 2 and USB OTG. Not all Android devices are compatible.

- Störende Popgeräusche
- wichtige Tasten fehlen
- etwas kurzes Kabel
Shure schickt mit dem MV 5 den kleinsten Testkandidaten ins Rennen. Die kleine Murmel ist fix an dem gebogenen Standfuß angebracht und dank Plug & Play ist das Gerät schnell einsatzbereit. Das MV 5 bietet drei Klangmodi (Sprache, Instrumente und Linear) und deckt damit verschiedene Anwendungsgebiete ab – klasse. Leider kämpft der Mikro-Knirpsmit lauten und dadurch störenden Popgeräuschen.

- Kompakt und gute Halterung
- MFI-Zertifizierung
- Ordentliche Soundqualität
- Nur Monoaufnahmen
... Fertige Dateien können zudem direkt in der App bearbeitet und konvertiert werden. Ein großer Pluspunkt ist zudem der hochwertige Standfuß, der aus Aluminium gefertigt ist. Auf ihm hält das MV5 sicher und lässt sich gut positionieren. Leider ist der Kunststoff des Mikrofon-Gehäuses nicht in ebensolcher Qualität verbaut.
