Sennheiser ClipMic Digital Review (for iPhone)

In this quick review we test the Sennheiser ClipMic Digital. This mic is really a professional level device geared towards video producers, journalists, event producers and advanced hobbyists.

For our test we recorded using the Meta Recorder app on an iPhone 6S to Broadcast .WAV files at 48k 24bit.

What We Like:

1. Professional grade build quality and sound quality (and it should be for $199).
2. Digital mic – meaning it connects through the Lightning port on an iPhone – not only is this nice for quality, but it also allows you to monitor using headphones via the analog headphone jack.
3. Apogee App integration – great recording app that works well with the mic.

What We Don’t Like:

1. It is on the pricey side at just under $200, but for pro use it’s not really a problem – but hobbyists might feel it’s too much.
2. The carry case that ships with it is flimsy – get another one or put the mic in with other gear.
3. It’s not “plug and play” (at least in our tests) – you need to set the level in the app to get a good recording, other wise it defaults too low of a recording level (not sure if this is the mic output or the app?).

Overall a nice professional sounding mic that is very portable and a great addition to a filmmaker’s or audio professional’s kit.
