Moving professional to the home

With the quality of home capture being one of the major audio challenges as a result of the pandemic, Shure is taking its professional expertise into the home with the MV5C home office microphones, the latest in the MOTIV series of microphones that are intended to provide clearer audio in meetings.

The MV5C is a directional microphone that features the manufacturer’s Speech Enhancement Mode to enhance the user’s voice on audio or video calls. A fully adjustable desk mount stand lets the mic be positioned close to the user’s mouth. Setup is achieved by plugging the mic into a computer USB port; however, there are also different audio modes provided for “set it and forget it” applications. It is compatible with Mac or Windows devices by using the supplied USB-A or USB-C cables.

“With nearly everything now operating from home – TV productions, education, health and wellness, and our everyday work – we quickly realised the need for improved audio in these settings,” said John Born, senior global product manager at Shure. “The MV5C provides drastically better sound from a brand that professionals have been trusting for decades to support their biggest moments onstage. In the simplest and most concise way, you can now have the confidence that your message, presentation or story is being heard loud and clear.”
