Your FlashMic combines a professional-quality, omni-directional condenser microphone with
an internal digital audio recorder in a single self-contained, self-powered unit. An extremely
simple set of controls make it suitable for completely non-technical users; alternatively,
more experienced recordists can access a wide range of additional functionality through
menu-based pages on the FlashMic’s LCD display.
Retrieval of recordings is via the FlashMic’s USB port; the stored sound files are transferred
to a computer as .wav files in either linear or compressed (MPEG Layer ) formats.
Transfer is either by using the supplied FlashMic Manager software, or by standard drag-
and-drop file handling.
Think of your FlashMic as the audio equivalent of a digital camera. Just as you use a
digital camera to quickly and conveniently record high-quality visual images for subsequent
transfer to a computer, so you can use FlashMic to capture sound. Just as pictures can be
subsequently edited, stored, e-mailed, deleted, or whatever – so you can now manipulate
recorded audio in the same ways.
The FlashMic is ideal for use by journalists and reporters for news-gathering and interviews,
by business organisations, public institutions – any situation where a quick and convenient
method of voice recording is required.
Some of the main features of the FlashMic are as follows:
Linear or compressed (using MPEG Layer compression) digital
audio recordings as .wav files.
Recording time up to 8hrs (file format and sample rate dependent).
Built-in headphone amplifier for monitoring, with adjustable level.
Uses x AA cells – either alkaline or rechargeable.
Modes of operation to suit both technical and non-technical users.
Adjustable pre-record buffer of up to 0 seconds.
Rapid file transfer via USB to PC or Mac.
9 internal presets for storing different FlashMic configurations.
Adjustable recording level or fixed AGC mode, with bargraph display.
Remaining Time display.
Replay of last or an earlier recording via monitor output.
Markers (cue points) can be added to recordings in both Record and
Playback.
File recovery system allowing recovery of most audio data in the event of
power loss or other failure.
