IK Multimedia has announced today that the iRig PRE universal XLR microphone interface is now available from retailers worldwide and from the IK Multimedia online store.

iRig PRE has the features found in professional studio microphone preamps like an adjustable gain control, 48-volt phantom power and an audio/headphone output jack for real-time monitoring. Plus, iRig PRE comes ready to go with two free apps for download from the App Store: iRig Recorder Free, a simple-to-use audio field recorder, and VocaLive Free, a premium real-time vocal-effects processor for stage or studio use.

The iRig PRE is designed to be ideal for capturing live performances on the go with professional stage or studio microphones. And with the included apps from the App Store, yo can even experiment with different effects for professional results.
Phantom Power
iRig PRE features on-board 48v phantom power supplied by a standard 9v battery (included). This means iRig PRE does not require external power from the Apple device and will not drain its battery,  thus providing hours of recording time on a single device charge. iRig PRE’s battery will last up to 10 hours with a phantom-powered condenser mic. With microphones that don’t require phantom power, such as dynamic models, you can get up to 30 hours from a single battery.

IK’s Companion Apps
Theultra-silent circuitry of iRig PRE is made to ensure complete preamp transparency, so the only coloration heard is the sound of the microphone. Plus, iRig PRE is compatible with all IK Multimedia effects processing apps like AmpliTube, AmpliTube Fender, AmpliTube SLASH, iRig Recorder, and VocaLive as well as multitude of other apps that record and process audio –  like Apple’s GarageBand – where accuracy in reproduction quality is important.
