Shure MVX2U Review - I want my money back
I wanted a clearer desk space and wanted a smaller audio interface to run my XLR Mic's, but this Shure MVX2U is not the one for me.
I've decided to stick with the Rode Streamer X or Rodecaster Pro II.
Tested this interface and did the comparisons with two of my Shure SM7B's.
A very quick feature of my Electro-Voice RE20 was also included.

I agree… RE20 is a better mic for folks with deeper tones in their voice… your voice sounds better on the RE20 than the Shure mics.
The noise floor jump is a non-issue because no one should be intentionally bumping the mic in the first place.
I agree with this 100%. I also purchased an MVX2U last week, and it's very noisy with my SM7B. I was going to order a fethead to solve this, but since I am already using an XLR cable from my SM7B to the MVX2, thus creating more clutter on my desk (because I could not get the MVX2U to fit into my SM7B with my boom stand), I am returning mine too. I ordered a Vocaster 2 instead, and I will try that. I like the small physical footprint of the Vocaster 2, and they are all on sale now ($150 to $160 off from the regular retail price of $250). 😎
Hmmm you are saying there is no processing done but when you went through the motiv app you switched the compressor to light, the "preset" is used. So all of that changes the sound. You should better switch all of that off including the Master compellor in the Rodecaster and the "presets' on the Rodecaster, meaning choosing "dynamic" instead of SM7B in the channel presets. Otherwise there are a lot of things that are actually being done to the sound, not groundbreaking things, but some....
Great video - simple, straight-forward and its good to hear the comparison audio.
Had the same issue with noise floor…. Added a fet head and only run the SHURE adapter at 30 db that fixes it. Although expensive work around
One think I found this does great in is retaining the settings memory and then used on mobile devices like an iPad. That limiter is also soooo good and it's hard to distort this thing. It behaves similar to the limiter on my mixpre 3 but of course the preamp doesn't sound as clean. But portability and clean setup trumps a 10% cleaner preamp any day.
Good video… can I connect a Ribbon-Mic to the MVX2u? Thank you.
The shure sm7b preset on the rodecaster IS processed
What would be the best audio interface to connect sm7db?
nice
So you return it to the seller because it lacks functionality? You did not realize that when you purchased it? Sheesh! I grow weary of reviews that diss an entry level product because it lacks features on more expensive, more fully featured products.
