IK MULTIMEDIA iRig Mic Studio

The Multimedia iRig Mic Studio is a lightweight large-diaphragm digital microphone for iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, PC and Android devices.

Big sound, small size

What's remarkable about the iRig Mic Studio is that it offers truly amazing recording quality, despite being smaller in size than an iPhone. This is due to the fact that despite its small size, it has a high-quality 1" capacitor diaphragm followed by a low-noise preamplifier and an audiophile-grade 24-bit A/D converter (with a 44.1/48 kHz sampling rate). The result of this chain is a dynamic 133dB SPL, which allows for optimal recording of any sound pressure level - from the subtle dynamics of the human voice to the drivingly impacting sound of an electric guitar.



Complete equipment

To get the best recording every time, you need full control over the sound level. And that's what iRig Mic Studio provides in spades. You can adjust the input gain with the rotary knob while controlling the level with the multi-coloured LED. But the best way to evaluate the sound is in your headphones, which is why iRig Mic Studio also features a headphone output with its own volume control, so you can directly monitor the sound from the microphone. And to help you best position iRig Mic Studio when recording, it comes with a sturdy portable tabletop tripod.



Connectivity first

The iRig Mic Studio is compatible with all popular mobile and desktop platforms. As such, the microphone has a micro USB connector and comes with a set of cables:

Recording apps

For instant recording, iRig Mic Studio comes with a suite of cross-platform vocal apps. iOS users can take advantage of the VocaLive app, which is a powerful effects processor and multi-track recorder that boasts a selection of 12 professional real-time vocal effects. There is also the EZ Voice app (iOS/Android), which allows singers to practice with any song from their music library. There's also the iRig Recorder app (iOS/Android), which makes field recording, podcasting, note-taking and more easy and convenient. Also of interest is the Mic Room app, which allows for iPhone and iPad microphone simulation.
