Shure MoveMic 88+

An All-Terrain Creative Microphone in Shure's DNA, Tailored for Modern Workflows

The MoveMic 88+ continues Shure's expertise in wireless transmission and follows an agile production logic: capturing clean, usable, and consistent sound without turning the audio setup into a constraint. While many mobile shoots rely on a phone's built-in mic or wired accessories, this model targets a more "production-ready" approach: directional control, internal processing (DSP), and monitoring, all while remaining compact and quick to deploy.

Integration with the free Shure MOTIV apps simplifies essential settings (modes, gain, monitoring) and secures sound capture right from preparation. And if your shooting environment changes, the MoveMic ecosystem also allows easy connection to other equipment via a MoveMic 88+ receiver.

For Whom and What: Video, Interview, Ambience, and Social Content with Real Control Over the Sound Frame

The Shure MoveMic 88+ is aimed at videographers, YouTubers, mobile journalists, documentarians, and creators who want a microphone that adapts to the scene. In on-camera interviews, the mono cardioid mode helps prioritize the voice. In duets, the bidirectional mode is especially handy. For immersive ambience (concerts, street, nature), the adjustable stereo widens or narrows the sound image. And for advanced users, the raw mid-side provides interesting flexibility in post-production while maintaining coherent recording on location.

Headphone monitoring via the 3.5 mm jack output on the microphone or receiver is a major asset during shooting: you can immediately check levels, ambient noise, and handling noise before it's too late.

Polar Patterns, DSP, and Control: Wireless Capture That Remains Precise

Four Polar Patterns to Frame Sound Like an Image

The MoveMic 88+ is not limited to "capturing louder": it mainly allows you to choose how it captures. The adjustable stereo (60deg to 135deg) modulates the field width. The mono cardioid focuses attention on the main source. The bidirectional facilitates face-to-face exchanges. And the raw mid-side offers a more technical approach to adjust balance and width afterward.

Built-in Presets: Fast, Efficient, Consistent

Thanks to its 5 modes (speech, vocal, linear, acoustic, loud), the microphone adapts its internal processing to common uses: enhanced intelligibility for voice, a more neutral response for mixing bases, or handling stronger sources. All this is supported by a gain adjustment range from 0 to 40 dB, useful for handling varied situations without clipping or raising too much noise.

Two Ways to Work: Direct Smartphone or Expanded Configuration

In a lightweight setup, direct Bluetooth connection to the smartphone enables quick filming and recording without a receiver. For more complete setups (camera, computer, third-party mobile apps), using the MoveMic 88+ receiver simplifies integration and allows broader audio parameters, including up to 24-bit resolution on the receiver side.
