IK Multimedia iRig Mic HD digital microphone for iOS and Mac
Product no: 9000-0009-1367 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The iRig Mic HD is IK Multimedia's first professional handheld microphone that can be plugged directly into an iOS device. That means you can record vocals, interviews or voice overs in high quality, without the intervention of all manner of peripherals. Just take this microphone and your iOS device and you'll be able to start recording. Furthermore, the iRig Mid HD can also be used with your Mac, for vlogs and covers. It comes with two types of cable - Lightning and USB.

Properties of the iRig Mic HD microphone

Thanks to its ergonomic shape, it fits well into your hand. The status indicator on the microphone shows you when it's active, as well as when distortion occurs, so that you can adjust the gain settings. Thanks to detachable cables, the mic can be used with your Mac and iOS device, whether it's fitted with a Lightning or a 30-pin connector. The USB connector is quite something - usually you can't lock a USB connector, but IK Multimedia have fitted it with a special pull relief, so that a plugged in USB cable can never come loose accidentally. The microphone ensures crystal/clear recordings in excellent quality, partly thanks to the fine 24-bit A/D conversion with a sample rate of 44.1 or 96 kHz.

Free apps!

The iRig Mic HD comes with a free set of apps, which can be downloaded in the App Store. VocaLive FREE is made available in any case, so that you can use an effects processor to add extra effects to your vocals. You are provided with iRig Recorder to create your own recordings, as well as AmpliTube, which can be installed on your Mac. With all these apps, your iRig Mic HD becomes a truly versatile microphone!
