New Shure MV5C Home Office Microphone Designed For Consistent Audio During Meetings

After promoting its latest MV7 hybrid XLR/USB microphone, which clearly appealed to users who recognize the similitude with the famous SM7B, Shure also launched a new member to its MOTIV range of USB microphones, with the new MV5C design, focusing on improving voice audio quality and making video conferencing from home more effective. This microphone evokes the classical Shure Unidyne (unidirectional) series, in a USB compatible microphone that connects directly to any Mac or Windows laptop or computer.

Expanding its range of products that are a great fit for home applications, from streaming and podcasting to home studios, Mackie expanded its EleMent Series of microphones, now with three versatile models with USB-C interface and power. All ideal solutions for web conferencing, presentations and podcasts. And because everyone needs comfortable headphones for those uses, Mackie launched the affordable MC-100 Professional Closed-Back Headphones expanding the range to five models.

Parks Associates is predicting that headphones and earphones are likely to experience sales spikes with the world changing to Work at Home, Home Schooling, and Entertainment-In-Place. The company's research highlights the need for enhanced user experience to aid with device integration as audio market shifts from whole-room home theater systems to standalone connected devices. Podcast, music, and news consumption habits are also changing as a result of the current public health crisis with COVID-19.
