iRig Pre 2

Get the best out of your favorite microphone
Like many musicians, YouTubers and broadcasters today, you probably rely on the professional sound quality you get by using an XLR microphone. But for on-the-go creation of audio and video, XLR microphones present some challenges. Many require phantom power, and at best, using them also means having a laptop and classic audio interface to take advantage of the mic preamps and phantom power you need.

iRig Pre 2 is a pocket-sized mic preamp that lets you easily use your XLR microphones to record, play and stream to your iPhone *, iPad, Android device, or DSLR camera. The sequel to the best-selling portable mic pre of all time, iRig Pre 2 delivers the same professional sound you're used to, adding direct monitoring, auto-switching cabling for use with digital cameras, and so much more.

Covered throughout
Whether you're recording a podcast or your new album, interview or action sequence, iRig Pre 2 is the easiest way to connect any type of XLR microphone to an iPhone *, iPad or Android device. And its new auto-switching circuit allows the iRig Pre 2 to instantly adapt to work with your digital camera input as well.

It's the smallest, best sounding portable mic preamp you'll find and the only one you'll need for any situation!

* Requires use of Apple's Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter (TRRS).

All on
Do you need phantom power for your condenser microphone? The iRig Pre 2's 2 AA batteries provide true + 48V phantom power (many other mobile mic preamps only offer 32V, degrading microphone performance) for approximately 7 hours of continuous use.

To use your favorite dynamic or ribbon microphone, simply turn off the phantom power and you're covered for even more time - up to 20 hours!

Don't waste a single session
A useful 3.5mm (1/8 ") headphone output now offers direct monitoring, so you can listen live to make sure your signal is perfect before you start recording or streaming!

It's perfect for all of today's popular live streaming and video recording apps, so you can switch between apps with confidence that you'll always sound your best.

And for DSLRs and digital cameras, it makes setup a breeze without the need to get lost in menus or look for workarounds to monitor sound.

Suitable for any situation
You can easily access your favorite apps while recording or performing by mounting the iRig Pre 2 on the microphone stand or elsewhere on stage using the included velcro slot. For secure mounting of the mic stand of your smartphone, tablet or digital camera, be sure to check out our iKlip series, which offers a choice of flexible mounting options for a variety of scenarios.
