Always Room for More: MXW neXt now in 4 and 8 channel options

The Microflex MXW neXt 2 introduced us to a new age in wireless audio for hybrid events. An all-in-one wireless microphone system and perfect for all small to medium sized spaces that required two channels of wireless audio – whether for sound reinforcement, video conferencing, or both. But what about larger, more complex collaboration spaces?
For larger channel count requirements, MXW neXt has now been expanded to offer 4 and 8 channel options – with a totally reimagined industrial design for unparalleled performance.
So, What’s New:
- Speed & Simplicity of Set-up: Go from lights on to mics on in minutes with the push of a single button that links mics to the APX via the networked charging docks + pre-optimized system modes.
- Built-in IntelliMix® DSP: As with the MXW neXt 2, the new neXt 4 and neXt 8 APX units also include a full suite of DSP functionality including Dante, USB and analog outputs.
- New gooseneck transmitter: Upgraded with new LCD display and now with 39h battery runtime for multi-day usage.
- Redesigned network chargers: 4 x network chargers in 4 and 8 bay versions with dedicated space saving gooseneck/boundary chargers. New daisy-chaining option.
- Integration with ShureCloud for remote management and control, Designer 6 for streamlined deployment, and compatibility with leading videoconferencing platforms.
MXW neXt 4 and neXt 8 let you select any microphone transmitter combination that meets your needs. In addition to the new MXW1X bodypack transmitter, the MXW2X handheld transmitter, and the MXW6X boundary transmitter introduced as part of the MXW neXt 2 launch in 2024, the neXt 4 and neXt 8 are also available with the MXW8X gooseneck transmitter; perfect for discussions where all participants are required to have a microphone. Now upgraded with LCD information screens on each microphone that display battery time remaining, the room name, and more.
All microphones drop into networked charging stations at the end of the day so they’re always ready to use. Bodypack and boundary microphones run for up to 17 hours on a full charge, and handheld and gooseneck microphones run for up to 39 hours. The neXt 4 and neXt 8 are also available with new dedicated gooseneck and boundary chargers so that each setup can be configured according to specific requirements.
The transceiver includes analog, Dante, and USB-C interfaces for easy connection to a computer, sound system, and videoconferencing codec. You can send mic audio to the remote participants only (for conferences), to the room loudspeakers (for presentations), or both (for hybrid meetings).
The MXW neXt 4 and neXt 8 integrated wireless system is the next step in audio for hybrid events in corporate and higher education meeting spaces. With MXW neXt, there’s always room for more.
