Superior digital sound quality
iRig Mic HD 2 delivers incredible performance giving you the ability to record your instruments or vocal performances with 24-bit resolution and sample rates up to 96kHz. It utilizes a high-quality, gold-sputtered electret condenser capsule that ensures exceptional transient and frequency response (20 Hz - 20 kHz, -3 dB) along with enhanced durability, and the integrated low-noise preamp lets you dial in just the right amount of gain for the optimum signal level.

Able to withstand a maximum sound pressure of 125dB, iRig Mic HD 2 will stand up to recording even very loud sources and the cardioid pickup pattern will help reject unwanted sounds from back side of the microphone.

This makes it perfect for a multitude of applications where audio quality is paramount along with versatility and freedom of movement. Both in the studio and on the go, iRig Mic HD 2 is much more than just a digital USB microphone; it is a comprehensive tool for boosting your creativity and the quality of your audio content with all the convenience of a handheld form factor.

Integrated headphone out with volume control
iRig Mic HD 2 features an integrated headphone output with volume control that you can use for monitoring the audio signal or listen to high-resolution music on your device, (even on the latest iPhone 7.)

This can also come in handy to send the signal out to an external device like another recorder, a mixer or a PA system.

Compatibility for all your iOS devices and computers
Key to iRig Mic HD 2’s broad compatibility is its selection of included detachable cables. The mic comes with a Lightning connector cable and USB cables.

This covers you for the latest generation of iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices, and it also gives you the flexibility to connect directly to your Mac or PC.
