From personal to professional applications, video capture technology has made huge leaps forward in recent years iPhones and DSLR cameras have empowered everyone to create amazing looking content. However, recording quality audio for your video can still be a difficult and confusing process. No visual feedback during recording, syncing issues in post production, using a clapper for syncing, marking your best takes, etc – the list goes on. And your video is only as good as your audio.

With the availability of the transformative ClipMic digital 2 Video Kit, Apogee provides the answer to your audio for video challenges. The ClipMic digital kit lets you add metadata right into your recording, use timecode to perfectly sync takes between video and multiple mics, have visual feedback on recording, & more. By pairing ClipMic digital 2 lavalier microphones, Atomos’ UltraSync BLUE bluetooth timecode device, & the MetaRecorder audio recording app for iOS you get a professional audio solution for any type of video project in an easy to carry case.

ClipMic digital is the perfect personal microphone solution for capturing dialogue, interviews, narration, lessons, auditions, singing and conferencing. The compact lavalier microphone capsule, combined with Apogee’s analog-to-digital conversion and low-noise mic preamplifier technology, allows ClipMic digital to record and stream audio from your mobile device or laptop with sound quality previously only available with much more expensive solutions.

UltraSync BLUE allows you to synchronise timecode over Bluetooth® to an expanding range of compatible cameras, audio recorders and apps. Whether you’re filming a wedding, a vlog, an independent film, the news, a reality show, television documentary, or even a feature film, the UltraSync BLUE offers the power of professional sync in a compact, wireless product that’s small enough to fit in your pocket and affordable enough to be used on any type of production.

Apogee’s MetaRecorder is a two-channel audio recording app made specifically for the ClipMic digital microphone or any iOS microphone. The app is easy to use and offers professional quality, 24 bit/96 kHz audio recording as well as metadata features that make it simple to edit your video. You can also use MetaRecorder to adjust microphone input gain. Essential features of MetaRecorder can be controlled from Apple Watch – start and stop recording, add a take to Favourites, add Markers or set your microphone input level. Apply metadata tags like Keywords, Favourites, Markers and more to your audio files while recording in the field, then share the recorded audio and Final Cut Pro® XML files to Dropbox directly from MetaRecorder. When imported into Final Cut Pro on a Mac, the captured metadata greatly simplifies the process of organising and parsing your media, substantially accelerating your post-production workflow.
