User questions & answers

Question:	does it work on ps
Answer:	I will opt for dynamic microphones for choir church band
Question:	Is there a link for the drivers
Answer:	No, these microphones operate on the UHF wireless spectrum. For example, Shure H10 Band is 542-572 MHz, which is below the 2.4GHz band. Be sure to check on Shure Wireless Frequency Finder page to see which band works best in your geographical area. Here's the link. https://www.shure.com/en-US/support/tools/frequency-finder
Question:	Does this product have a mute button
Answer:	Do you mean a single channel wireless system? The BLX14/CVL? In either case, yes, you will be able to run both systems simultaneously. Each frequency band of the BLX can run numerous transmitters at the same time without interfering with each other. If you also happen to have the BLX14/CVL, you can also purchase the BLX288/PG58 in the same frequency band so that you can have back up transmitters/receivers in case any of them fail.
Question:	Can I press the on board control to mute the mic

Question:	Can I use a adapter to use this on Xbox
Answer:	You could, but it requires you to use a computer or laptop. You would hook this up to your computer, then set the computer to play whatever the microphone records directly to your speakers. Then get a 3.5mm male to male wire and connect it to the computer/laptop's speaker out port. Then put the other end in the microphone input on your xbox splitter. I assume you know that you need a 3.5mm Y splitter for your xbox controller so that you have two female openings, one for mic one for headphones. This should allow you to use this as an xbox microphone. Feel free to respond if you need any help.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can be used to connect straight to a laptop and record with Audacity or need some extra accesory to make it works
Answer:	The ShurePlus MOTIV Desktop app will recognize and control two MV7’s (or one MV7 and one MV88+, or two MV88+s) at the same time. When two devices are connected, you can click the MV7 icon to flash the LEDs on the panel of the microphone you’re currently controlling. In the device dropdown menu, you can temporarily rename each microphone to remember which one is which. However, it can be difficult for your computer to manage two USB input signals. Windows doesn’t allow multiple MOTIV devices to be connected at the same time, while Mac computers do allow configuration of two MOTIV devices, so long as you create an Aggregate Device in your system settings.
Question:	Does this podcast mic have noise-cancelling abilities
Answer:	I love my mv7 I’m a full time twitch streamer the only note I will say is buy yourself a good boom arm I have to order a new arm due to the microphone weight but the mic sounds phenomenal the one I have was a cheap boom arm you get what you pay for
Question:	May I know if there is any difference of the sampling Rate between 192khz/24bit and 96khz/24bit
Answer:	It's not a condenser mic; it's a dynamic. The MV7’s unique pick-up pattern keeps it laser-focussed on your voice and prevents any unwanted background or room noise from interrupting your recording.
Question:	Is this mic good for singing
Answer:	The manufacturers are ignoring the issue. We don't care if you include a converter in the box. We want all of our devices to be USB-C, so we don't have to keep carrying around the inferior micro USB cables. Just make the product $250 instead of $249 and give us a type C connection.

User questions & answers

Question:	How is the AT2020PLUS different from the regular AT
Answer:	I have both. The AT2020 was great for general recording purposes, but for singing or voiceover I do LOVE the monitor jack and the slider. The slider will let you balance what comes into your monitor (your earbuds, headphones, whatever you plug in to the jack) so you can choose how much of the mic versus the PC comes into your ears. This gets important because if you rely on the PC to feed your voice back to you, there is a slight signal delay that can get awkward. You don't have to use the monitor, and it doesn't affect the act of recording. Hope that helps!
Question:	Does this work with windows 10? I need someone who actually uses it on win10 machine, not someone selling them. I have at2020 not working w/ win
Answer:	Yes, I'm running Windows 10 with Audacity recording software. By the way, with this one-directional mic, it's very important to be speaking INTO THE BLUE LIGHT behind the screen. That's the one-directional "sweet spot." And, you didn't ask, but I record (as do most of my professional colleagues now stuck at home) into the free software "Audacity." Some have found that If you plug in the mic AFTER you load Audacity, it may not recognize AT2020+ as a microphone choice, and while it may still record, the results will be unsatisfactory. If or when that happens, just restart Audacity AFTER plugging the USB into your computer and click on the AT2020+ option.
Question:	Is this a one-directional mic? I was told that a one-directional mic is best for recording podcasts
Answer:	Yes, and it's very important to be speaking INTO THE BLUE LIGHT behind the screen. That's the one-directional "sweet spot." And, you didn't ask, but I record (as do most of my professional colleagues now stuck at home) into the free software "Audacity." Some have found that If you plug in the mic AFTER you load Audacity, it may not recognize AT2020+ as a microphone choice and while it may still record, the results will be unsatisfactory. If or when that happens, just restart Audacity AFTER plugging the USB into your computer and click on the AT2020+ option.
Question:	is it possible to listen to a downloaded .mp3 instrumental (NOT instrument) on my PC and hear that while i record over it using this mic
Answer:	Yes, using the monitor dial on mic itself, toggling between PC sound and your own, or setting accordingly until balance suites you. (using plugged in headphones into mic)

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work recording into my Mac's GarageBand
Answer:	Hi there, It should work perfectly well with Mac's GarageBand!
Question:	Do i need to buy headphones to effectively use this mic
Answer:	The mic has an 1/8th mic output. You definitely want a good pair of headphones so you can adjust the mic’s gain. The mic is very sensitive so you need to adjust the level so you don’t overload it and distort the sound. I recommend using the best studio quality headphones you can afford. You also want to wear them when using it so you can dial in the sound. Cheap ones do not work so well. Amazing mic though!
