An XLR microphone with a phone or a laptop
A studio microphone needs a preamp, phantom power and a converter, and in the field nobody wants to carry an interface. The iRig Pre HD has a balanced XLR input, a 40 dB gain range and +48 V phantom power (for which the two AA batteries in the box are needed). The response is 20 Hz to 20 kHz +/- 1.5 dB and the input noise is -97 dB RMS (-105 dB(A)). The microphone input level spans 6 mVpp to 1.4 Vpp at 2 kOhm impedance.
Monitoring and portability
The 3.5 mm TRS headphone output with a level wheel gives 100 mW into 50 ohms. The micro-USB socket connects to the device with the Lightning, USB-A or USB-C cable from the box, and with a computer it takes power from the USB bus. The unit measures 40 x 110 x 34 mm and weighs 75 g without batteries, and a Velcro strip is included for mounting.
