Make professional studio recordings on the go
Introducing the iRig Mic Studio, an ultra-compact digital condenser microphone by IK Multimedia for iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, PC, and Android. In its super-compact housing, it houses a 1-inch condenser capsule that can be used to record audio of professional quality anywhere. It is ideal for musicians, vocalists, home producers, podcasters, broadcasters, announcers, and many others, delivering unparalleled large-diaphragm microphone power in the palm of your hand.
Big sound, small size
What's remarkable about the iRig Mic Studio is that it offers truly stunning recording quality in a housing smaller than an iPhone. It features a large 1-inch back electret condenser capsule, high-quality 24-bit A/D converter (with a 44.1/48 kHz sampling frequency), and a built-in low-noise, high-resolution preamp. Combined with a 133 dB SPL noise level, it ensures optimal recording at any sound pressure level — capturing everything from subtle and detailed human voice dynamics to full saturation of amplified electric guitars and everything in between.
Full set of controls
To ensure the best recording quality, the iRig Mic Studio comes with a full set of flexible controls: it has a gain adjustment knob and a multi-color LED level indicator. It also includes a headphone output with its own level control for direct monitoring from the iRig Mic Studio itself. And for the best positioning during recording, the iRig Mic Studio comes with a sturdy portable desktop stand.
All of this means that the iRig Mic Studio is equipped with everything needed to capture high-quality sound whether you are at home in the studio or recording on the go.
It's all about connections
The iRig Mic Studio is compatible with all your favorite mobile and desktop platforms. It features a micro-USB port and comes with several cables: Micro-USB to Lightning for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch; Micro-USB to micro-USB OTG for Android (requires Android 5 or Samsung Professional Audio); and micro-USB to USB for Mac and PC. The 30-pin micro-USB cable is available separately for older iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch models.
Recording with apps
For immediate recording, the iRig Mic Studio is equipped with a powerful set of apps that ensure its cross-platform compatibility. iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch users can enjoy VocaLive, a powerful effects processor and multitrack recording app featuring 12 professional vocal effects in real time. EZ Voice for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch and EZ Voice for Android are streamlined and easy-to-use programs that allow vocalists to practice any song from their music library. iRig Recorder for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch and iRig Recorder for Android are simple field recording, podcasting, note-taking apps, and more. Mic Room is a microphone modeling app for iPhone and iPad.
iRig Mic Studio is also fully compatible with a wide range of third-party apps and software such as Cubasis, ProStudio Vocal FX, MultiTrack DAW, and others. Additionally, it is compatible with Apple's GarageBand and Logic Pro X apps, as well as iOS Voice Memo.
