IK Multimedia iRig Pre HD | High definition microphone interface with studio quality preamp

Many things to like, good sound quality input and output, allows high quality microphone connection to phone, tablet or laptop. Also acts as a sound card for wired headphones on laptops daft enough not to include an audio jack. Very much recommended for portable audio needs.So far plugs into USB C and just works, also tried on USB A. NB I haven't yet found a situation I need the batteries which helps keep the weight down, 48v power works fine for microphones from USB C connection.It is a shame that the USB cable is not USB C on both ends.The headphone jack could be further from the USB socket, one of my bigger, non-standard headphone cables doesn't fit well. But normal ones will.Does it need the battery compartment? it could be smaller and more portable if it didn't have it.Overall great product using it regularly for recording, zoom/teams etc on the go.

Very good attachment to use for the singing app. You wouldn’t need any difficult and many connections just attach to your phone.

Needs to be connected to a phone or other source to start working. So don’t get scared if you don’t see any lights when you connect to your microphone only.Seems a bit finicky and almost like a child's toy but is a rather useful tool for picking up on small sounds with the option to choose gain levels. Even better that it comes with a velcro strap to hang onto tripod stands, as well as connecting cords for phones or laptops. Would recommend.Happy content creator.

This device allows you to use XLR microphones with your iPhone and greatly improves the sound by utilising a good and quiet pre-amplifier.Latency free monitoring is another bonus and the visual meter is simple but effective.Could wish for a better build quality at this price - I had to return my first sample due to a faulty cable, but it was exchanged without issues (other than the usual Amazon paperwork/trip to post office etc).When using the iRIG pre HD with a dynamic microphone (like RØDE M1 or SHURE SM58) you need to dial gain up to 20% from max at normal spoken level, but it does not introduce noticeable noise.The device use the power from the iPhone (or a connected computer) to feed the pre amp, but takes batteries (2xAA) to feed the microphone with phantom power (if required). I found that Apple's "Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter" can be used to feed the phone with power through the Lightning plug while using the enclosed USB to mini USB cable to connect the Pre HD to the iphone - in case you need to make long recordings.I can recommend this product.

I love this I had the first IRig pre it worked but not like the pre hd sound quality is amazing plus you got gain so you can add some grit.Definitely worth the price snd them some.

Perfect to use my condenser mic with my iPhone to record video

For my surprised it stoped working in 29 days.

Does not include USB-C cable mentioned in the photos, just lightening and regular USB
