Product description

VideoMic Me Directional Microphone for Smartphones. The VideoMicro is a compact microphone designed to improve the audio quality of your videos. There is a bit of conventional wisdom that goes something like, "Half of good video is good audio." And it’s true. Say you’re recording a video of a live performance. Who cares if the band looks like they’re cooking if it doesn’t sound great?  The VideoMicro incorporates a high-quality cardioid condenser microphone capsule for great quality audio recordings when used with a wide range of cameras. The VideoMicro reduces distracting peripheral sounds and focuses on the audio in front of the camera. Its pickup is more forgiving than other on-camera microphones, providing a more natural sound when recording indoors. The microphone body is made from aluminum, giving it a high level of RF rejection, and is finished in RODE's high-grade ceramic anti-glare black coating.  Included with the VideoMicro is a camera shoe mount featuring a Rycote Lyre shockmount. Featuring a suspension structure composed of a rugged thermoplastic, it is far more effective at minimizing unwanted vibrations, handling and cable-borne noise than traditional elastic suspensions. The Rycote Lyre will never sag, snap, wear out or require rethreading to maintain its effectiveness. Also included is the WS9 synthetic furry wind screen with foam inner cell, designed for use in outdoor scenarios where wind and environmental noise can inhibit recordings.  SPECSAcoustic Principle: Pressure GradientActive Electronics: JFET impedance converterCapsule: 0.50" Polar Pattern: Cardioid Address Type: EndFrequency Range: 100Hz - 20kHzMaximum SPL: 140dB SPL (at 1kHz, 1% THD into 1KOhm load) Sensitivity: -33.0dB re 1 Volt/Pascal (22.00mV at 94 dB SPL) +/- 2 dB at 1kHzEquivalent Noise Level (A-weighted): 20dB-A Weight: 42gDimensions: 21mm x 21mm x 80mm Output: Minijack OutputD0gblu343

Note-attach the mount to the microphone body before connecting to your ios device. The mount will flex to accommodate the thickness of your device when attached, do not bend or force open

User questions & answers

Question:	There is a jack in the back, but can I play normal mobile inside of the sound (the sound of songs and videos
Answer:	You can plug a headphone into it and listen to your mobile device. You cannot hear when you are recording with the mic, to check sound levels, you have to play it back when you are done recording.
Question:	will this work on an iphone
Answer:	I'm not certain, I have a "7" and it works fine on my iPhone. The specific detail is the distance between the insert that goes into the headphone opening...does the 8+ have a headphone jack? If so it will likely work.
Question:	I have a samsung galaxy s8 and i like to video loud live concerts. will this microphone get me better audio results in loud situations
Answer:	My guess is without being able to control the gain (lowering the input level) you will likely get clipping. You need a way to monitor the levels and lower if necessary. It is though all relevant to the volume levels at the concerts and how close you are to the speaker.
Question:	Will this work on my iphone 6 with the lifeproof case? this case needs an adapter to plug in the headphones so can't mount to case. please help
Answer:	Get a smartphone holder mount (looks like a selfie stick holder that holds the phone) and glue a cold shoe mount to it, then you will able to attach the mic to your phone... I'm not sure about your adapter headphone problem

User questions & answers

Question:	Would this mic work well to record love rock bands
Answer:	yes it would, but you have to do tests with it to get the best positioning and gain etc, very good sound and easy to work with, just a bit of practice before recording something epic and realising your gain was too high( lol happened to me)
Question:	Any recommendations for a lightning port splitter so that this can be used together with a charging cable? I can't find any that fit both
Answer:	I wish I could help you, but I've been looking for the same thing with no luck. Biggest design flaw of this great little mic, is the inability to charge phone while using the mic.
Question:	Is this compatible with the iPhone X
Answer:	It is compatible with all the new I Phones
Question:	Would this work well recording a violin performance for a competition
Answer:	This will work excellent. Please do adjust the between the microphones pointing towards the violin solo rehearse and do check the level of sound using a monitor headphone

The Zoom iQ7 stereo microphone

The iQ7 mid-side stereo condenser mic is the ideal audio accessory for your iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. Lightweight and compact, small enough to fit in your pocket, it is perfect for capturing music as well as video with great-sounding audio. Now anyone can create pristine quality recordings everywhere they go.

Mid-Side recording made easy

Mid-side recording is a great way to capture stereo sound. The iQ7 contains two microphone elements: a directional 'mid' mic that captures audio coming from in front, and a bidirectional 'side' mic that covers the signal all around you.

A simple three-way stereo width switch on the iQ7 allows you to customize your recordings to your environment: Set it to 90° to focus on an individual sound, or 120° for a wider sound-stage that incorporates the surrounding ambiance. For even more control, you can record the mid and side mic signals as 'raw' M-S data so you can later adjust the stereo width from 30° to 150° with Zoom's free Handy Recorder iOS app.

It's all in the app

Download Zoom's free Handy Recorder app to add even more functionality to your iQ7. In addition to providing MS decoding for variable stereo width, it offers a variety of effects such as reverb and six-band EQ, as well as editing tools like Normalize and Divide. There's also an automatic recording feature that allows you to start and stop recording whenever a particular level is reached, convenient when recording lectures or meetings.

In addition, the Handy Recorder app allows the iQ7 to record audio in either linear PCM (WAV) format for full CD-quality, or in AAC format for smaller file sizes and faster data transfer. With Handy Recorder, you can even email your audio creations to friends and upload them to SoundCloud for sharing with the world.
