Update Summary
Shure Designer 6.7.0 adds support for MXA320 and MXW neXt 2 devices, introduces MXW neXt Mic Identify support, updates the MXW neXt interface, and fixes camera-tracking and deployment issues.
Update Details
Security
- Corrects inaccurate audio encryption status reporting for MXWAPX devices.
Bug Fixes
- Factory-resetting an MXA920 follower no longer removes it from its camera-tracking group.
- Improves camera-tracking behavior after removing a microphone, preventing invalid distance configurations and reporter changes.
- Restores the deployment-success dialog when redeploying room design files to rooms with existing optimized camera-tracking groups.
- Corrects inaccurate MXWAPX audio encryption status reporting.
New Features
- Adds support for the MXA320 Table Array Microphone.
- Adds support for the MXW neXt 2 MXWNDX2 Networked Charging Station.
- Adds support for the MXW neXt Mic Identify feature.
- Updates the MXW neXt web user interface to align with Designer.
Known Issues
- Some devices may lose their active preset after upgrading from Designer 4.7.45.7 to 6.2.0.622; reapply the desired room preset.
- Deploying 30–60 devices in one room may degrade performance or crash device-discovery processes; limit deployment to 30 devices.
- Removing an MXA920 follower after Optimize Coverage may leave it affecting the camera-tracking group; run Optimize Coverage again.
- Canceling MXA710 installation may add a virtual MXA710 to the design room; remove it manually.
- MXA920-S coverage settings may revert to previous values when added to a new live room with automatic coverage; repeat the workflow.
- Auto Route is disabled for rooms containing more than one MXWAPX device; route these rooms manually.
- MXWAPX matrix mixer cross-point gains may persist incorrectly when switching from Presentation Mode to Conference Mode; verify and update gains manually.
- MXA920 MAL follower settings may persist when moving the device to another room; remove all MXA920 devices from the existing room first.
- Encryption indications may be incorrect in online devices and rooms; switch away from Routing and return to it to refresh the status.
Hints

- Supported macOS versions are Tahoe 26.1, Sequoia 15, and Sonoma 14.
- Update device firmware with Shure Update Utility before using Designer, and verify compatibility versions for connected devices.
