The iRig MIC Cast is pocket-sized and features a
unidirectional pickup pattern that iRig says minimizes background noise. This
is designed to be used close to the audio source you are recording and ideal
for pod casts and the like.
A product which is designed as a which is included in the package.
This means you can position the iPhone on a desk in front of you and get it to
an ideal height for recording, to keep the noise and the movement of equipment
from your record.
On the right of the iRig Mic Cast is a headphone socket so
you can monitor your recording. On the front is a Lo-Hi switch to adjust the
sensitivity of the microphone. Although there are only two options, as opposed
to the three settings on the standard iRig Mic, I felt I had enough control
over the level of recording.
There are also other nice touches and attention to detail.
The Mic has a bumper and case friendly connector that protrudes enough to get
past the majority of protectors. There’s nothing more annoying than having to
take your iPhone out of its case to use a peripheral like this, so top marks
there.
As with other IK Multimedia products you get two free apps
in the package, the iRig Recorder a voice recording and editing app, and
VocaLive an effects processing app for singers. I used the mic with the built
in iPhone recorder app and had no trouble.
These iRig Mics are very good at spotting a gap in the
market. The audio and build quality as well as the attention to detail really
makes this a very good package and has become a standard part of mobile pod
cast setup.
The iRig MIC Cast is compatible with iPhone 4S, iPhone 4,
iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3, iPod touch (4th, 3rd and 2nd generation), iPad and iPad
2. They all require iOS 3.1.3 or later.
