Designed to be used for both video and audio recordings, it features a patent-pending rotatable enclosure that you can easily position for the best stereo image in both landscape and portrait orientations. Now you can capture pristine sound no matter whether you’re recording a rehearsal or a concert, capturing audio for videography, acquiring audio for a music project, recording instruments while on the move, saving a lecture or speech or creating your next viral video hit. iRig Mic Field lets you create accurate and faithful field recordings in any imaginable context.
iRig Mic Field combines high-quality components and unparalleled portability with a unique form factor. iRig Mic Field packs a 24-bit audiophile-grade A/D converter, a 44.1/48 kHz sampling rate, a 115 dB maximum SPL rating and a low-noise/high-definition pre-amp into an enclosure that’s small enough to slip easily into your pocket.

This means you can make higher quality recordings than with the built-in mono microphone on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and also comparable mobile microphones that only produce a true stereo sound when held in portrait mode. All of this while all the on-board controls remains easily accessible and properly positioned for maximum comfort.

Capturing good sound requires more than just high-quality components; it also requires comprehensive and easy to use controls. iRig Mic Field has everything you need to ensure your sound is recorded at the perfect setting.
