NOTES

• User Guide
• To use MXCW version 2.0.9 with other Shure software, reference the following list of minimum versions:
  • Shure Update Utility 2.4.5
  • Shure Web Device Discovery 1.2.5
  • Shure NFC Programming Application 1.0.3

Improvements

• Bug fixes
• Fixes for VoiceOver

Known Issues

• A small percentage of users may receive a numerical error message while recording, such as “-1” or “66570.” These messages occur when there was an error writing to the device and are related to Apple’s new file system (APFS). One of these errors can occur even if your device has plenty of remaining storage. We recommend clearing up your device storage from the Settings screen, and if that doesn’t resolve the issues, doing a full restore from iTunes, consisting of backing up your device, wiping/restoring to factory settings, and restoring from the backup.
• If you monitor your recordings with Bluetooth earphones, you may hear artifacts, such as noise, while monitoring. If this occurs, we recommend changing the sample rate of your recordings. Some products may produce artifacts at 44.1 kHz, while others may do so for 48 kHz recordings. Please keep in mind that even if you hear artifacts while monitoring, they will not be present in the recordings themselves.
• When connected to iPad Pro via a USB-C cable, the MV88+ will pass audio and gain can be adjusted. However, the MOTIV apps will only display ‘external mic’, and the settings screen will not be available. Shure recommends using another device to configure the settings before using with iPad Pro. No adjustments can be made in real time (except gain) on the Shure MOTIV apps when using an iPad Pro.

• Users of iPhone 8 who are running iOS 11.3 may experience crashes when playing back saved recordings from within the app.
• iPhone XS Max users may experience visual misalignment issues after focusing on an object and then zooming in.
• In rare cases, recordings will begin with a half-second of silence before the audio starts. However, the audio will remain in sync with the video, and will not run past the end of the video frames.
