The ClipMic digital 2 Video Kit from Apogee solves this challenge by combining cutting-edge lavalier microphones with intelligent metadata recording and wireless timecode synchronisation.
This comprehensive solution eliminates common audio headaches like sync issues, lack of visual feedback during recording, and the tedious process of marking takes in post-production. At the heart of this system lies the ClipMic digital lavalier microphone, featuring Apogee's renowned analog-to-digital conversion technology and low-noise preamplification. Perfect for dialogue, interviews, narration and conferencing applications, this compact microphone delivers studio-grade sound quality that rivals far more expensive professional setups.
The kit also includes Atomos' UltraSync BLUE, a pocket-sized Bluetooth timecode device that wirelessly synchronises multiple cameras and audio recorders across any production scale. The MetaRecorder iOS app completes this powerful trio, offering 24-bit/96 kHz recording quality alongside sophisticated metadata tagging capabilities. Users can control essential functions directly from their Apple Watch, including start/stop recording, favourite marking, and input level adjustment.
The app's ability to generate Final Cut Pro XML files with embedded metadata dramatically streamlines post-production workflows, automatically organising media through keywords, markers and favourites that can be shared directly to Dropbox from the field.
