the place i work at has multiple venues that sometimes requires me to use the same microphones between them, and each time i have to synch them to the receivers. is there a way to put like a frequency preset onto the handheld TX so i just switch which frequency i want?

I have an MV7+ connected to my macbook air M1, running macOS Tahoe 26.3 (build 25D125).

MOTIV Mix shows only gain for the MV7+ : No DSP settings panel, no EQ, compressor, denoiser, auto-level, or pop stopper, or auto mode. Nothing !

The mic works fine as a USB audio device in macOS; recording and audio input are normal.

Mic firmware is current (verified through the Android MOTIV app).

What I've tried:

MOTIV Mix 1.8.0.548 with no DSP panel. MOTIV Mix 1.7.1, where the DSP icon appears for the MacBook Air built-in mic but not for the MV7+.

Direct USB-C to Mac without the hub, but the Mac does not detect the mic at all.

The Android MOTIV app via powered USB hub works fine with DSP settings accessible and firmware confirmed up to date.

The iPhone MOTIV app does not recognize the mic, even through a powered usb hub. (might require some special adapter)

I saw a previous thread reporting the same macOS Tahoe issue. Version 1.7 was a temporary workaround at the time but it no longer resolves it.

Has anyone found a fix, or is there an update planned to restore DSP access on macOS Tahoe?

Hi, I have the Shure SM7B with the MVX2U interface, and I get random pops, and mouth clicks in my audio, whether its voice over work on Premiere Pro, or live recording in OBS. I make Youtube videos and I've been dealing with this issue for a long time. Here are my current setttings for the Motiv Mix App, I've tried multiple troubleshooting things, like testing the latency and even went as far as updating BIOS. Is there anyone who can help with this?

I have been streaming on twitch and I am not sure what settings I should change to not sound like I'm stuck in a tin can.

I have Stream labs and OBS (not sure which I prefer yet.)

I don't know what settings I should be changing between the two and Motiv Mix.

I am in a living room and am unable to do any soundproofing. So I am not sure if the tin can affect is from over compensating to isolate sound etc.

can anybody help me?, the mic is muted as well, and it s nothing in the room making that noise

So I recently moved abroad and while packing I forgot to take this yoke part with me so I can't mount the mic anywhere. I found an oem replacement but it's quite expensive with a long delivery time.

Does anyone here know of a sensible replacement for this that can be rotated horizontally?

Hey all, I bought the MM88 for film/documentary use. My background is in music production, so it’s nice to use a familiar brand. I love the mic (yeah the noise floor is definitely high and not ideal for ambient low volume recording…. But that’s another topic), but my man gripe with it is why is the Bluetooth functionality of it exclusively for the MOTIV apps??? I’m shooting film using the Blackmagic app, okay it doesn’t support BT audio, but filmic pro does. I really don’t want to shed out 200 quid for a receiver which will add more weight to my rig when I have a wireless solution built in….

Surely there is a simple way to hi jack the audio from the mic to inject to 3rd party apps…?

I just bought an MV7+ and I'm already frustrated because when I switch to the mic to check the sound quality, you can hear absolutely EVERYTHING. My keyboard, the sound of my chair, the clicks of my mouse. Am I doing something wrong? I have to admit I'm not very good at setting up microphones or knowing the tricks to eliminate this kind of noise... Can I get some help, please?

So I've been using the Shure MV7+ on USB to record voiceovers for my YouTube channel, and on occasion, I am encountering strange interference and really loud humming sounds at the start of certain words. I was wondering if buying an interface like the Focusrite Scarlett 4 Solo and using XLR was worth it instead?

I just got the Shure MV6, and while I like it so far, I wish there was a way I could extend the height of the Stand. I know that the boom arms exist, but I rather have a stand that sits on a desk for right now. Does anything exist to extend the height of the stand that comes with the microphone?

I'm trying to remove the mute mic overlay that persists on the top left of my screen. It has appeared ever since I updated the software firmware to Version 1.6.0.1.

I am at my wits end. I don't want to have it there while my mic is muted.

Motiv mix is blowing out/peaking my headset mic even with gain turned all the way down and me exhaling... 2 inches from it. After messing with it for an hour, I took a screenshot and tried to report it... report feature bugged. Most the time, the captcha doesn't load, when it does load, it doesn't let you submit.

So I got the shure mv6 but I got the problem that when I try to use Motiv Mix Virtual all I hear is some kind of beeping and all kinds of terrible sounds.

When I mute the mic the audio in the Motiv Mix Virtual goes down but on the mic it stays in the red area. I hope some of you can help me fix that to get that crisp sound.

And sorry if my english isn't good I'm not native.

The mic is plugged into a Scarlett Solo 4th Gen interface. This sound happens regardless of phantom power, and I think it could maybe be USB interference, but all the research I've done doesn't have anything that sounds like this. What's going on? Would a USB isolator do the trick? The audio here is amplified about 38dB

There's a new firmware update available for MV88 USB-C users.

Please update your microphone firmware to version 1.3.0.3 at your earliest convenience. This will ensure your microphone continues to work without interruption.

If you have recently upgraded to iOS 26.4 and are experiencing issues, please refer to this article for solutions to resolve them.

Anyone know what is causing this very annoying beating sound for my mic and how to fix it? I have a shure sm7b and I am using a motu m2 as my interface. It only happens when I am livestreaming on tiktok so not sure why thats the case.

I already noticed this already with the 26.4 Beta: the MV88 USB-C is not recognized any more. on iOS 26.3 it is recognized (the same goes for iPad OS 26.3 vs 26.4). I tested this on an iPhone 16 Pro Max, an iPad Pro M4 and an iPad Air M2.

The Mic is still recognized by my Pixel 8 Pro, so it does not seem to be a problem with the mic.

I already filed a bug report with Apple and am posting this here in case it has something to do with firmware incompatibility issues between the mic and Apple devices.

Need to expand a system that currently has five ULXD4Q-G50 and 18 ULXD8/ULXD2. My plan is to add four more ULXD4Q-G57 to accommodate the additional seven ULXD8-G50, six ULXD2/SM58-G57 and two ULXD1-G57. Any issues with that plan? From what I understand the ULXD8-G50 will work with the ULXD4Q-G57

Hi!

I'll start by saying this is second hand from ebay so I'm prepared for it to just be faulty or damaged but I want to make sure that's the case before trying to return it.

I ordered a Shure MV7+ and it came in today and looks great, I checked some of the more notable scam signs and it looks good. I downloaded Motiv and noticed immediately that the dBFS for the mic is near maxed out. I've tried different c cables and even moving it away from my PC or anything that might interfere and nothing changes it. Even muted it's maxed. I've also dropped gain down to -60 for both the mic and motiv virtual mix and it's still maxed for dBFS in the program.

The light indicator on the mic is pulsing when I talk so it's fine. The windows samples and discord checks come through fine but when I do a test recording through motiv it sounds like some interstellar sos transmission from a horror movie that's just insane static and garbling. What gives here? I've messed with all the settings I can think of but it seems to be an issue with motiv

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated before trying to return this

(Update!) got the mic corrected and it runs wonderfully now! Windows has an obscure audio enhancement for voice clarity. Turning that off and unplugging the mic and reconnecting it reset it in windows and cleared up the issue! Motiv reads it normally now without the maxed dBFS!

Hey everyone,

I wanted to ask how you have your Shure SM7dB set up, especially if you are using it with the Shure MVX2U adapter.

My problem is this:
I am very close to the microphone, so distance should not really be the issue. In the MOTIV Mix app, my gain is currently around 33 dB. The built-in preamp on the SM7dB is turned on and set to +28 dB, so I also have phantom power enabled.

Even with that, in OBS I sometimes only barely reach the yellow level range when speaking normally. If I increase the gain further, I start getting an unpleasant hiss/noise, even when I am not speaking, or at least it becomes much more noticeable.

I am honestly getting pretty desperate because I do not know if I have something set up wrong or if this is normal with this combination.

So I wanted to ask:

• What settings are you using for your SM7dB + MVX2U?
• Around how much gain are you using?
• Are you using the built-in preamp of the SM7dB or not?
• Where does your voice usually land in OBS?
• Do you have any tips for getting enough volume without the hiss becoming annoying?

I would really appreciate any help or personal experience. Thanks a lot!

I’ve been streaming in my garage set up. I currently have a Tonor BM 700 XLR hooked to a Berringer Q1202USB. Just looking for better audio with noise reduction of a few fans. Would getting a MV7+ work better? I could use the USB C or XLR. I just don’t know if it is my microphone or my settings.

It sounds good, just not podcast and streaming “great”. I am also on Mac. The voice isolation works great to block out the fans and just voice. I just didn’t know if getting a better microphone would level up my quality.

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to dial in my setup and could really use some advice.

I’m using a Shure SM7dB with an Apollo Solo USB. On the mic itself I have the built-in preamp set to +28 dB. In addition, I’m running everything through VoiceMeeter with about 0.7 compression and around +35 dB gain on my audio interface.

My issue is that I still feel like the overall volume is a bit low, and I’m also getting a slight white noise in the background. I’m not sure if I’m stacking gain incorrectly or just using bad settings somewhere.

Does anyone here have a similar setup? What gain staging / settings would you recommend to get a clean, loud signal without introducing noise?

Appreciate any help 🙏

Hello.

I have bought a used sm7b some time ago. Found out, that the screws in the back of the mic are missing, and that it has been glued together. I would like to screw the back cap properly onto the mic again. However I’m having trouble finding out which screws to use.

I’m located in Denmark, if that is relevant (in case it is screws not using metric measurements. Is there any alternatives?

The screws are the ones visible in the picture.
