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


1. After installing your microphone, connect it to a PoE port on the network switch using Cat5e (or better) cable.
2. Connect your computer running Designer to the same network.
3. Open Designer. Check that you’re connected to the correct network in Settings.
4. Click Online devices. A list of online devices appears.
5. 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.

1. Go to My projects > New to create a new project.


2. Select New > Room (live) to create a new room. Any online devices appear in the list. Drag and drop the MXA710
and the ANIUSB-MATRIX to add them to your room.

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

3. Select Optimize.

4. 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


1. 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.

2. 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.

Using Designer's Optimize Workflow


Designer's Optimize workflow speeds up the process of connecting systems with at least 1 microphone and 1 audio processor.
Optimize also creates mute control routes in rooms with MXA network mute buttons. When you select Optimize in a room, De­
signer does the following:

• Creates audio routes and mute control routes


• Adjusts audio settings
• Turns on mute synchronization
• Enables LED logic control for applicable devices

The settings are optimized for your particular combination of devices. You can customize settings further, but the Optimize
workflow gives you a good starting point.
After optimizing a room, you should check and adjust settings to fit your needs. These steps may include:

• Deleting unnecessary routes.


• Checking levels and adjusting gain.
• Verifying that AEC reference signals are correctly routed.
• Fine-tuning DSP blocks as needed.

Compatible devices:

• MXA910
• MXA920
• MXA710
• MXA310
• P300

10/38

• IntelliMix Room
• ANIUSB-MATRIX
• MXN5-C
• MXA Network Mute Button

To use the Optimize workflow:

1. Place all relevant devices in a room.


2. Select Optimize. Designer optimizes microphone and DSP settings for your equipment combination.

If you remove or add devices, select Optimize again.

How to Adjust Microphone Coverage


To control microphone coverage, use Designer. Microphone coverage is at the room level, meaning that there is one coverage
map for all microphones in a room.

1. Go to [Your room] > Coverage map.


2. Drag your microphone onto the coverage map if it isn't there already. The first time you do this, you'll be prompted to
choose an installation orientation. There are 4 options:
◦ Wall horizontal
◦ Wall vertical
◦ Ceiling
◦ Table

These coverage templates are designed and tested to fit most common installations.

3. Adjust each lobe's width (narrow, medium, or wide) and position as needed in the Properties panel. Adjust the
microphone's position and orientation to match your room's layout.
4. Listen to each of your microphone's channels and adjust the lobe position, width, and gain as needed.

The solid blue line in each lobe represents where the coverage is the strongest. The edge of the blue coverage area for
each lobe represents where the lobe's sensitivity reaches -6 dB.

Autofocus technology fine-tunes each lobe position in real time, even if meeting participants lean back or stand up.

Tips for Great Coverage


• Click and drag lobes to change their position.
• Select the microphone and go to Properties > Position to change the installation type.
• Lobes can cover 1 talker or many talkers depending on width. Test and listen to your settings, and adjust as needed.
• Ceiling installations: For best coverage, avoid using narrow lobes.
• Lobes are bidirectional in some positions because of the microphone's pickup pattern.

MXA710 Coverage Examples


Use these images to understand how the coverage patterns work in different installations. Always listen to lobes as you move
them into position. Have someone talk from each lobe position to make sure that you have good coverage.

Using Autofocus to Improve Coverage


This microphone uses built-in Autofocus technology to fine-tune each lobe's position in real time, even if meeting participants
lean back or stand up. You'll see the lobes moving in Designer's coverage map as participants shift positions. Autofocus only
responds to in-room sound sources.
For best results with Autofocus, always route a reference source to the microphone's AEC Reference In channel. Even if you're
only using direct outputs from the microphone and a different DSP, route a reference signal to the microphone's AEC Refer­
ence In channel to take full advantage of Autofocus.

15/38
Shure Incorporated

Adjusting Levels
Gain levels on MicroflexAdvance microphones must be set for each saved coverage preset to ensure an optimized gain struc­
ture for all seating scenarios. Always adjust the levels before making any changes to automix settings to ensure the best per­
formance.

1. Perform a level check for each coverage area, using a typical speech volume. Adjust the faders so the meters are
peaking at approximately -20 dBFS.
2. Adjust the equalizer settings to optimize speech intelligibility and minimize noise (such as low-frequency rumble caused
by HVAC systems).
3. If equalizer settings cause a significant increase or decrease in levels, make any necessary level adjustments accord­
ing to step 1.

When to Use the Channel and IntelliMix Gain Faders


There are 2 different gain faders that serve different purposes:

Channel Gain (Pre-Gate)

To adjust, go to Channels. These faders affect a channel's gain before it reaches the automixer and therefore affect the
automixer's gating decision. Boosting the gain here will make the lobe more sensitive to sound sources and more likely to
gate on. Lowering gain here makes the lobe less sensitive and less likely to gate on. If you're only using direct outputs for
each channel without the automixer, you only need to use these faders.

IntelliMix Gain (Post-Gate)

To adjust, go to Configuration > IntelliMix. These faders adjust a channel's gain after the lobe has gated on. Ad­
justing the gain here will not affect the automixer's gating decision. Only use these faders to adjust the gain of a talker after
you are satisfied with the automixer's gating behavior.

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.

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

16/38
Shure Incorporated

◦ 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.

• Cover plate (US or UK) and screws (if using)
• 4 drywall anchors and screws
• Screwdriver
• Drill
• Cat5e or better Ethernet cable

18/38
Shure Incorporated

1. If you're mounting over a junction box, remove the existing cover plate.
2. Position the wall-mounting bracket. You can mount it vertically or horizontally on the wall.
3. Using a pencil, mark the wall for the position of the drywall anchors and screws. If you're installing over a junction box,
balance the bracket with 2 screws above the box and 2 screws below it.
4. Remove the bracket and drill the holes for the drywall anchors. Install the drywall anchors.
5. Place the bracket on the wall and insert the drywall screws into the anchors to secure the bracket.
6. Thread the Ethernet cable through one of the large openings in the bracket. If you're mounting over a junction box,
thread the cable through the provided cover plate and install the cover plate over the bracket.
7. Connect the Ethernet cable to the microphone. Align the holes on the back of the microphone with the raised posts on
the bracket and slide the microphone into the bracket until it clicks into place.
8. To remove the microphone, press the tab at the top of the bracket with a screwdriver or other tool and slide the micro­
phone up.

Shure Incorporated

Shure also sells the A710-FM flush mount kit, which attaches to the microphone's mounting keyholes like the wall bracket in
step 7 above.

VESA MIS-B Compatibility


The 4 screw holes (for M4 x 10 mm screws) on the bottom of the microphone are compatible with VESA MIS­B mounting prod­
ucts, such as the Peerless Universal Sound Bar Kit or the Chief Thinstall Center Channel Speaker Adapter.

Covering the Microphone with Fabric


In certain installations, covering the microphone or the mounting hardware with fabric may be desirable. Shure has tested the
acoustic performance of this microphone with some fabrics from Guilford of Maine and Kvadrat.
In our tests, there was little effect on the microphone's acoustic performance if the fabric met one of the following specifica­
tions. To cover the microphone, the fabric should meet at least one of these specifications:

• Specific airflow resistance of ≤254 Pa*s/m (Pascal­second per meter)


• Any Guilford of Maine fabric with ≥0.95 NRC (noise reduction coefficient) rating

These are examples of fabrics that met our specifications at the time when Shure evaluated fabrics: Guilford of Maine's Bee­
Have, and Kvadrat's Ginger, Mi Casa, Casita, and Time.
For best results:

• Use only 1 layer of fabric over the microphone or mounting hardware.


• Always confirm the fabric's acoustic specifications and testing process with the fabric manufacturer. Shure doesn't keep
track of any changes in fabric specifications.

How to Update Firmware Using Designer


Applies to Designer 4.2 and newer.

Before setting up devices, check for firmware updates using Designer to take advantage of new features and improvements.
You can also install firmware using Shure Update Utility for most products.
To update:

1. Open Designer. If there's new firmware that you haven't downloaded yet, Designer shows a banner with the number of
updates available. Click to download firmware.
2. Go to Online devices and find your devices.
3. Choose a firmware version for each device from the Available firmware column. Make sure that no one is editing device
settings during an update.
4. Select the checkbox next to each device you plan to update and click Update firmware. Devices may disappear from
Online devices during an update. Don't close Designer while updating firmware.

Firmware Versioning
When updating firmware, update all hardware to the same firmware version to ensure consistent operation.
The firmware of all devices has the form of MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (e.g., 1.2.14). At a minimum, all devices on the network,
must have the same MAJOR and MINOR firmware version numbers (e.g., 1.2.x).

IntelliMix DSP
This device contains IntelliMix digital signal processing blocks that can be applied to the automix channel output. The DSP
blocks include:

• Acoustic echo cancellation (AEC)


• Automatic gain control (AGC)
• Noise reduction
• Compressor
• Delay

To access the DSP blocks, select the IntelliMix tab. When enabled, each DSP block will be colored.
Selecting Bypass IntelliMix will bypass the following DSP blocks: AEC, AGC, noise reduction, compressor, and delay.

DSP Best Practices


• Apply DSP blocks only as needed. Run a test of your system without DSP, and then add processing as needed to fix any
issues that you hear in the audio signal.
• Unless you encounter video that lags behind audio, set Delay to off.
• DSP blocks do not affect whether the automixer gates a channel on or off.

Acoustic Echo Cancellation


In audio conferencing, a far-end talker may hear their voice echo as a result of a near-end microphone capturing audio from
loudspeakers. Acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) is a DSP algorithm which identifies the far-end signal and stops it from being
captured by the microphone to deliver clear, uninterrupted speech. During a conference call, the AEC works constantly to opti­
mize processing as long as far-end audio is present.
When possible, optimize the acoustic environment using the following tips:

• Reduce speaker volume


• Position speakers farther from microphones
• Avoid pointing speakers directly at microphone coverage areas

Selecting a Reference Signal for AEC


To apply AEC, provide a far end reference signal. For best results, use the signal that also feeds your local reinforcement sys­
tem.
P300: Go to Schematic and click any AEC block. Choose the reference source, and the reference source changes for all AEC
blocks.
MXA910, MXA920, MXA710: Route a far-end signal to the AEC Reference In channel.
IntelliMix Room: Go to Schematic and click an AEC block. Choose the reference source. Each block can use a different refer­
ence source, so set the reference for each AEC block.
Designer's Optimize workflow automatically routes an AEC reference source, but it's a good idea to check that Designer choos­
es the reference source you want to use.

AEC Settings
Reference Meter
Use the reference meter to visually verify the reference signal is present. The reference signal should not be clipping.

ERLE

21/38
Shure Incorporated

Echo return loss enhancement (ERLE) displays the dB level of signal reduction (the amount of echo being removed). If the
reference source is connected properly, the ERLE meter activity generally corresponds to the reference meter.

Reference
Indicates which channel is serving as the far end reference signal.

Non-Linear Processing
The primary component of the acoustic echo canceller is an adaptive filter. Non-linear processing supplements the adaptive
filter to remove any residual echo caused by acoustic irregularities or changes in the environment. Use the lowest possible
setting that is effective in your room.

Low: Use in rooms with controlled acoustics and minimal echoes. This setting provides the most natural sound for full du­
plex.

Medium: Use in typical rooms as a starting point. If you hear echo artifacts, try using the high setting.

High: Use to provide the strongest echo reduction in rooms with bad acoustics, or in situations where the echo path fre­
quently changes.

Noise Reduction
Noise reduction significantly reduces the amount of background noise in your signal caused by projectors, HVAC systems, or
other environmental sources. It is a dynamic processor, which calculates the noise floor in the room and removes noise
throughout the entire spectrum with maximum transparency.

Settings
The noise reduction setting (low, medium, or high) represents the amount of reduction in dB. Use the lowest possible setting
that effectively lowers noise in the room.

Automatic Gain Control (AGC)


Automatic gain control automatically adjusts channel levels to ensure consistent volume for all talkers, in all scenarios. For qui­
eter voices, it increases gain; for louder voices, it attenuates the signal.
Enable AGC on channels where the distance between the talker and the microphone may vary, or in rooms where many differ­
ent people will use the conferencing system.
Automatic gain control happens post-gate (after the automixer), and will not affect when the automixer gates on or off.

Target Level (dBFS)

Use -37 dBFS as a starting point to ensure adequate headroom, and adjust if necessary. This represents the RMS (aver­
age) level, which is different from setting the input fader according to peak levels to avoid clipping.

Maximum Boost ( dB)

Sets the maximum amount of gain that can be applied

Maximum Cut ( dB)

Sets the maximum attenuation that can be applied

Tip: Use the boost/cut meter to monitor the amount of gain added or subtracted from the signal. If this meter is always reach­
ing the maximum boost or cut level, consider adjusting the input fader so the signal is closer to the target level.

22/38
Shure Incorporated

Delay
Use delay to synchronize audio and video. When a video system introduces latency (where you hear someone speak, and
their mouth moves later), add delay to align audio and video.
Delay is measured in milliseconds. If there is a significant difference between audio and video, start by using larger intervals of
delay time (500-1000 ms). When the audio and video are slightly out of sync, use smaller intervals to fine-tune.

Compressor
Use the compressor to control the dynamic range of the selected signal.

Threshold

When the audio signal exceeds the threshold value, the level is attenuated to prevent unwanted spikes in the output sig­
nal. The amount of attenuation is determined by the ratio value. Perform a soundcheck and set the threshold 3-6 dB above
average talker levels, so the compressor only attenuates unexpected loud sounds.

Ratio

The ratio controls how much the signal is attenuated when it exceeds the threshold value. Higher ratios provide stronger
attenuation. A lower ratio of 2:1 means that for every 2 dB the signal exceeds the threshold, the output signal will only ex­
ceed the threshold by 1 dB. A higher ratio of 10:1 means a loud sound that exceeds the threshold by 10 dB will only ex­
ceed the threshold by 1 dB, effectively reducing the signal by 9 dB.

Automix
Automix Settings
Leave Last Mic On
Keeps the most recently used microphone channel active. The purpose of this feature is to keep natural room sound in the
signal so that meeting participants on the far end know the audio signal has not been interrupted.

Gating Sensitivity
Changes the threshold of the level at which the gate is opened

Off Attenuation
Sets the level of signal reduction when a channel is not active

Hold Time
Sets the duration for which the channel remains open after the level drops below the gate threshold

Maximum Open Channels

Gating
Gating mode delivers fast-acting, seamless channel gating and consistent perceived ambient sound levels. The off attenuation
setting is applied to all inactive channels, regardless of the number of active channels.

Gain Sharing
Gain sharing mode dynamically balances system gain between open and closed channels. The system gain remains consis­
tent by distributing gain across channels to equal one open channel. The scaled gain structure helps to reduce noise when
there is a high channel count. When fewer channels are used, the off attenuation setting is lower and provides transparent gat­
ing.

Manual
Manual mode sums all active tracks and sends the summed signal over a single Dante output. This provides the option to route
an individual signal for reinforcement or recording, without enabling automixing. The settings from the faders in the standard
monitoring view apply to the summed output.

Automix Channel
This channel automatically mixes the audio from all selected channels to deliver a convenient, single output. To adjust the au­
tomix channel settings, select the IntelliMix tab. All IntelliMix DSP blocks can be applied to the automix channel.
To use the automix channel, do the following:

1. Send to Mix is automatically selected (blue) for all channels. To exclude channels from the automix channel and treat
them as individual direct outputs, deselect Send to Mix (gray).
2. Route the automix channel in Dante™ Controller to the desired output.

Mute Sync
Mute sync ensures that all connected devices in a conferencing system mute or unmute at the same time and at the correct
point in the signal path. Mute status is synchronized in the devices using logic signals or USB connections.
To use mute sync, make sure logic is enabled on all devices.

1. Set a narrow Q value


2. Increase the gain to between +10 and +15 dB, and
then experiment with frequencies between 1 kHz and
Reduce flutter echoes and sibilance 6 kHz to pinpoint the range of flutter echoes or sibi­
lance
3. Reduce the gain at the identified frequency (start be­
tween -3 and -6 dB) to minimize the unwanted room
sound

Identify the specific frequency range that "excites" the room:

1. Set a narrow Q value


2. Increase the gain to between +10 and +15 dB, and
then experiment with frequencies between 300 Hz
Reduce hollow, resonant room sound
and 900 Hz to pinpoint the resonant frequency
3. Reduce the gain at the identified frequency (start be­
tween -3 and -6 dB) to minimize the unwanted room
sound

EQ Contour
Use the built­in equalizer contour to quickly apply EQ changes to all channels. The EQ contour is separate from the per­chan­
nel EQ settings. Applying both the EQ contour and per-channel EQ has a cumulative effect, meaning that the EQ changes
stack on top of each other.
To use, open the microphone in Designer and click EQ contour to turn it on or off.

• MXA710 EQ contour: Low shelf at 300 Hz, -6 dB

Click Bypass all EQ to quickly bypass any EQ contours or channel EQ settings.

Best Practices
• Listen to and test your system as you make EQ changes, and make sure they work for your specific room.

27/38
Shure Incorporated

• When using with a P300 audio conferencing processor, turn off the microphone's channel EQ and EQ contours. Use the
P300 to make EQ adjustments.

Networking Best Practices


When connecting Shure devices to a network, use the following best practices:

• Always use a "star" network topology by connecting each device directly to the switch or router.
• Connect all Shure networked devices to the same network and set to the same subnet.
• Allow all Shure software through the firewall on your computer.
• Use only 1 DHCP server per network. Disable DHCP addressing on additional servers.
• Power on the switch and DHCP server before powering on the Shure devices.
• To expand the network, use multiple switches in a star topology.
• All devices must be at the same firmware revision level.

Switch and Cable Recommendations for Dante Networking


Switches and cables determine how well your audio network performs. Use high­quality switches and cables to make your au­
dio network more reliable.
Network switches should have:

• Gigabit ports. 10/100 switches may work on small networks, but gigabit switches perform better.
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) or PoE+ ports for any devices that require power
• Management features to provide information about port speed, error counters, and bandwidth used
• Ability to switch off Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE). EEE (also known as "Green Ethernet") may cause audio dropouts and
problems with clock synchronization.
• Diffserv (DSCP) Quality of Service (QoS) with strict priority and 4 queues

Ethernet cables should be:

• Cat5e or better
• Shielded

For more information, see our FAQ about switches to avoid.

Setting Latency
Latency is the amount of time for a signal to travel across the system to the outputs of a device. To account for variances in la­
tency time between devices and channels, Dante has a predetermined selection of latency settings. When the same setting is
selected, it ensures that all Dante devices on the network are in sync.
These latency values should be used as a starting point. To determine the exact latency to use for your setup, deploy the set­
up, send Dante audio between your devices, and measure the actual latency in your system using Audinate's Dante Controller
software. Then round up to the nearest latency setting available, and use that one.
Use Audinate's Dante Controller software to change latency settings.

Device IP Configuration
This Shure device uses 2 IP addresses: one for Shure control, and one for Dante audio and control.

• Shure control
◦ Carries data for Shure control software, firmware updates, and third-party control systems (such as AMX or Crestron)
• Dante audio and control
◦ Carries Dante digital audio and control data for Dante Controller
◦ Requires a wired, gigabit Ethernet connection to operate

To access these settings in Designer, go to [Your device] > Settings > IP configuration.

QoS (Quality of Service) Settings


QoS settings assign priorities to specific data packets on the network, ensuring reliable audio delivery on larger networks with
heavy traffic. This feature is available on most managed network switches. Although not required, assigning QoS settings is
recommended.

Note: Coordinate changes with the network administrator to avoid disrupting service.
®
To assign QoS values, open the switch interface and use the following table to assign Dante -associated queue values.

• Assign the highest possible value (shown as 4 in this example) for time-critical PTP events
• Use descending priority values for each remaining packet.

Dante QoS Priority Values


Priority Usage DSCP Label Hex Decimal Binary

Time-critical PTP

Digital Audio Networking


Dante digital audio is carried over standard Ethernet and operates using standard internet protocols. Dante provides low laten­
cy, tight clock synchronization, and high Quality­of­Service (QoS) to provide reliable audio transport to a variety of Dante de­
vices. Dante audio can coexist safely on the same network as IT and control data, or can be configured to use a dedicated net­
work.

Compatibility with Dante Domain Manager


This device is compatible with Dante Domain Manager software (DDM). DDM is network management software with user au­
thentication, role-based security, and auditing features for Dante networks and Dante-enabled products.
Considerations for Shure devices controlled by DDM:

• When you add Shure devices to a Dante domain, set the local controller access to Read Write. Otherwise, you won't be
able to access to Dante settings, perform a factory reset, or update device firmware.
• If the device and DDM can't communicate over the network for any reason, you won't be able to control Dante settings,
perform a factory reset, or update device firmware. When the connection is reestablished, the device follows the policy set
for it in the Dante domain.
• If Dante device lock is on, DDM is offline, or the configuration of the device is set to Prevent, some device settings are dis­
abled. These include: Dante encryption, MXW association, AD4 Dante browse and Dante cue, and SCM820 linking.

See Dante Domain Manager's documentation for more information.

Dante Flows for Shure Devices


Dante flows get created any time you route audio from one Dante device to another. One Dante flow can contain up to 4 audio
channels. For example: sending all 5 available channels from an MXA310 to another device uses 2 Dante flows, because 1
flow can contain up to 4 channels.
Every Dante device has a specific number of transmit flows and receive flows. The number of flows is determined by Dante
platform capabilities.
Unicast and multicast transmission settings also affect the number of Dante flows a device can send or receive. Using multi­
cast transmission can help overcome unicast flow limitations.
Shure devices use different Dante platforms:

AES67
AES67 is a networked audio standard that enables communication between hardware components which use different IP au­
dio technologies. This Shure device supports AES67 for increased compatibility within networked systems for live sound, inte­
grated installations, and broadcast applications.
The following information is critical when transmitting or receiving AES67 signals:

• Update Dante Controller software to the newest available version to ensure the AES67 configuration tab appears.
• Before turning encryption on or off, you must disable AES67 in Dante Controller.
• AES67 cannot operate when the transmit and receive devices both support Dante.

Shure Device Supports: Device 2 Supports: AES67 Compatibility

Dante and AES67 Dante and AES67 No. Must use Dante.

AES67 without Dante. Any other au­


Dante and AES67 Yes
dio networking protocol is acceptable.

Separate Dante and AES67 flows can operate simultaneously. The total number of flows is determined by the maximum flow
limit of the device.

Sending Audio from a Shure Device


All AES67 configuration is managed in Dante Controller software. For more information, refer to the Dante Controller user
guide.

1. Open the Shure transmitting device in Dante Controller.


2. Enable AES67.
3. Reboot the Shure device.
4. Create AES67 flows according to the instructions in the Dante Controller user guide.

Receiving Audio from a Device Using a Different Audio Network Protocol


Third-party devices: When the hardware supports SAP, flows are identified in the routing software that the device uses. Oth­
erwise, to receive an AES67 flow, the AES67 session ID and IP address are required.
Shure devices: The transmitting device must support SAP. In Dante Controller, a transmit device (appears as an IP address)
can be routed like any other Dante device.
