Aiming the Microphone
This section suggests microphone placement for typical use cases. Keep in mind that there are many effective ways to record
a given source. Experiment with microphone placement and settings to find what works best.
Tip: To ensure correct stereo orientation of the microphone at a glance, check to see if the Shure name is clearly visible on the
top of the microphone. If the name is not visible, turn the barrel 90°.
Audio Recording
The phone or tablet can be used in any position. Aim the front of the microphone toward the source, with the left and right sides
facing the appropriate directions.
Portrait (Vertical)
Aim the front of the microphone toward the source. The microphone can be mounted in either orientation of the MV88 with the
Lightning connector, so ensure that the left and right sides are facing the appropriate directions.
