    It’s is amazingly unbelievable that in all of the videos I’ve seen about this mic, nobody bothers to mention the important fact that if you want to record a video on landscape mode (widescreen) , you have to rotate the mic because if not when recording in stereo the left and right are actually going to be pointing up and down

My question is this so do I need to use the Motiv video app to actually record video and use the Shure mic or do I do the Shure mic settings using Motiv and then use my iPhone X’s camera to shoot video and it will then use my Shure’s mic to override my iPhone’s Mic?? Trying to figure out the best sequence: To use my iPhone X’s video with the mic or to use Shure’s video app to use the mic?

    Hi. I’m looking for a mic for using with iPhone 14pro for bushcraft video. So stereo is important because of surrounding. If I understand correctly, mv88 stereo will work not left-right but up-down because of the way how mics are located right? Just imagine that you are recording video horizontally with iPhone main camera. So you need to rotate mv88 to the scene. How stereo mics will be located: left-right or up-down? Thanks for the answer. P.S. can you compare it with Rode stereo pro (not X)?

    Very useful review! Just curious... does it have a ducking feature... as well as band pass control? That's the devil in these items. Plus using as a handheld unit for interviews noise cut for handling is important. What do you think the battery life is when A/V vs say mono audio? That's sort of a drawback of this config. That audio separation test was also very helpful. Thanks!

I just picked one of these up and I'm trying to determine what the best setting for recording my improv shows is. Two things I'm concerned with are ensuring it picks up all the performance aspect, but the audience laughter doesn't drown it out. Assuming there is laughter. It is improv, after all. Thanks!

    good video. i bought one but returned it since it won't work with any iphone or ipad in a case. although the sound was pretty good, I get much better recordings out of my tascam digital handheld. in the end, it all depends on what you want to do with it.

    Hi, and thanks for this vid. For sure this us a awesome mic ! I used with my iPad Air 2. Now I have got an iPad Air 4, equipped with a USB C connector ! Any idea for an adaptor able to connect my new iPad to MV88 mic ? Thanks a lot.
