MXA710

2-Foot and 4-Foot Linear Array Microphone

Getting Started

To control MXA710 microphones, use Shure Designer software. After completing this basic setup process, you should be able

to:

Discover the MXA710 in Designer

Design microphone coverage

Apply DSP and route signals

You will need:

Cat5e (or better) Ethernet cable

Network switch that provides Power over Ethernet (PoE)

Shure Designer software installed on a computer. Download at www.shure.com/designer.

Step 1: Connect to a Network and Discover Devices

After installing your microphone, connect it to a PoE port on the network switch using Cat5e (or better) cable.

Connect your computer running Designer to the same network.

Open Designer. Check that you’re connected to the correct network in Settings.

Click Online devices. A list of online devices appears.

To identify devices, click the product icon to flash the lights on a device. Find the MXA710 in the list.

Step 2: Route Audio and Apply DSP

The easiest way to route audio and apply DSP is with Designer's Optimize workflow. Optimize automatically routes audio sig

nals, applies DSP settings, turns on mute synchronization, and enables LED logic control for connected devices.

The MXA710 includes IntelliMix DSP that can be applied to the automix channel output.

For this example, we'll connect an MXA710 and an ANIUSB-MATRIX.

From My projects, select New to create a new project. Click New to add a location to your project.

Select Live mode. Any online devices appear in the list. Drag and drop the MXA710 and the ANIUSB-MATRIX to add

them to your location.

Designer prompts you to choose an installation method for the MXA710. You can change this setting later in Coverage

map.

Select Optimize.

Check the audio routes and settings to make sure they fit your needs. You might need to:

Delete unnecessary routes.

Verify that AEC reference signals are correctly routed.

Fine-tune DSP blocks as needed.

You can also route audio manually in Designer outside of the Optimize workflow, or use Dante Controller.

Step 3: Adjust Microphone Coverage

Go to Coverage map to adjust the MXA710's coverage. Choose a device installation template:

Wall horizontal

Wall vertical

Ceiling

Table

These templates are designed and tested to fit most common installations, but you can adjust lobe position and width

as needed.

Listen to each of your microphone's channels and adjust the lobe position, width, and gain as needed. The solid line in

each lobe shows where pickup is the strongest. The lobe's edge is -6 dB down from the solid line.

After you have coverage set up, you can send audio from the ANIUSB-MATRIX to other Dante devices or analog sources.

Installation Guide

Choosing Where to Install the MXA710

The MXA710 is an extremely versatile microphone. You can install it in many places in a conference room and easily get good

coverage for all talkers.

MXA710-2FT MXA710-4FT

Room size Small to medium Medium to large

Maximum number of lobes 4 8

Recommended distance from talkers 2 to 16 feet 4 to 20 feet

Best Practices for Installation

Before installing, open the microphone's coverage map in Designer. Look at the 4 device installation templates to under

stand how the lobes behave when you move them around and use different widths. Lobes also have Autofocus technolo

gy, which fine-tunes each lobe position in real time, even if meeting participants lean back or stand up. Templates are

available for:

Wall horizontal

Wall vertical

Ceiling

Table

Measure your space and make sure that all talkers will fit in the microphone's coverage area.

Coverage also depends on your room's acoustics, construction, and materials. Take these into consideration when plan

ning coverage.

Don't place the microphone behind obstructions. Keep the microphone's grille at least 36 inches away from any occupan

cy sensors.

Plan for any future coverage needs.
