No controls are on hand, which streamlines the process: simply clamp the mic to your subject (or yourself), plug the mic into the phone, and start recording. The mic will work with any app that records audio, including the built-in iOS Voice Memo App—but when you pair it with the iOS Rode Reporter APP, you’ll have access to a wide array of mixing, editing, and exporting tools. Perfect for electronic field production, run-and-gun news reporting, or simple mobile vlogs, the mic comes with a windshield, a durable clip, and a Kevlar-reinforced cable. Great for the Field The mic is easily hidden, but it offers an omnidirectional polar pattern that ensures you’ll get an even sound at any angle of address. This makes it great for run-and-gun sound pickup. Handy Includes The included windshield protects against plosives. The clamp makes mounting the mic a cinch. The cable is durable, being reinforced with Kevlar, so you won’t find it breaking on you in the field. When you’re done, store everything in the included carrying pouch. Easy to Use The mic offers no controls and operates in the analog domain. This makes operation a breeze: simply plug it in and play. There’s no software to install to make it compatible with your phone-unless you want to achieve extra functionalities, such as the ones highlighted in the next feature. Compatible App The SmartLav is compatible with any audio app that accepts input from the headset connection; however, it has been designed to pair perfectly with Rode’s Rec app for Apple iOS devices. Rode Rec turns the user’s iOS device into a fully featured field recorder, with a wide range of equalization presets to suit various recording situations, in addition to professional editing functions and the ability to publish to SoundCloud and Dropbox direct from the SmartLav Specifications Acoustic Principle Permanently Polarise Active Electronics JFET Capsule 0.10″ Polar Pattern Address Type End Frequency Range 60Hz – 18kHz Output Impedance 3000Ω Maximum SPL 110dBSPL Maximum Output Level 189.0mV (@ 1kHz, 1% THD into 1KΩ load) Sensitivity -35.0dB re 1 Volt/Pascal (17.80mV @ 94 dB SPL) /- 2 dB @ 1kHz Equivalent Noise Level (A-weighted) 27dBA Weight 6.00g Dimensions 1180.00mmH x 4.50mmW x 4.50mmD Output
