Shure launches MV6 USB gaming microphone targeting casual users

wired.com January 11, 2025, 03:00 PM UTC

Shure has launched the MV6 USB gaming microphone, a simpler and more affordable option compared to its MV7 and MV7+ models. It aims to attract casual users while maintaining Shure's reputation for quality audio. The MV6 features a plug-and-play setup, requiring no additional software for basic use. However, users can access settings through the Motiv Mix software, which requires personal information to download. The microphone has a touch mute button that can be easily activated by mistake. While the MV6 delivers clear audio, it lacks manual controls and has a less intuitive design compared to competitors like the HyperX Quadcast 2 S. Overall, it offers good sound quality but may not meet the needs of more serious audio users.
