Tascam iM2 stereo Recorder For iPhone

Ever since Apple quietly took out the stereo recording feature in the iPhone 4 musicians and people interested in full spectrum recording have been looking for a solution.

Tascam has introduced a new product which finally fulfills that requirement.

TASCAM’s iM2 iPhone mic turns the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch into a high-quality stereo recorder. A pair of condenser microphones plugs into the iPhone 4/4S, iPod Touch 4G, iPad, iPad 2 dock connector.

The microphones are adjustable over 180 degrees for the best sound placement. The uni-directional elements are arranged in an AB pattern for detailed stereo imaging while capturing the ambience of your room.

The iM2 contains its own microphone preamp and analog-to-digital converter for low noise and great audio quality. Unlike mics that use the built-in iPhone preamp, the iM2 can handle up to 125dB sound levels to capture the loudest concerts and instruments without distortion.

We can’t wait to try this recording for iPhone video recording. The thing that intrigues us is the price is certainly right at $80. The Tascam iM2 is available for preorder now.
