Tascam mic for iPhone 5

[LP Freak]

Does anyone know if Tascam makes a mic that works with the iPhone 5?

I've read that the IM2 works but you need some type of adaptor?

Those do look cool, but won't work with the 5...

I use the adapter with the Tascam and it works great.

It hangs down which to me makes it better.

this is pretty cool for iphone 4, allowing way higher quality audio recording while using iphone in video camera mode

stereo recording with level control via two mics, bypassing the iphone mono hi pass phone mic, limiter control, hi pass control at various frequencies, headphone jack, threads for mounting to a tripod like so

the AR-4i is a little tricky as it will clip at higher volume recordings and it's hard to get just the right level, but if you experiment you can get great results

You'll need to buy the Lightning to 30-pin adapter from Apple:

The Blue Mikey Digital works with the 5 too.

Any dock connecting mic will work fine with the iPhone 5, you just need the 30-pin to Lightning adapter:
