ZOOM iQ7 MS Stereo Microphone for iPhone/iPad/iPod touch

There is something wrong with the design of the scheme. There is some noise when recording unless you turn off all the radio modules on your iPhone, especially the Cellular module.If you turn off all that, it doesn't have these annoying extra noises when recording the audio.It doesn't bother me as I don't use this for live streaming and have a dedicated iPhone for recordings.

I’ve had my Zoom iQ7 for 3 years and could not find a better phone microphone for recording live music. I bought the latest ZOom AM7 for Android and what a huge disappointment. No wonder the AM7 is now 1/2 price since it’s release. It’s not half the microphone as the iQ7. The iQ7 simply sounds great. Great app. It just works!!

Great product! The sound quality is wonderful and clear. Very happy with the product

The sound quality is definitely much better than the iPhone mic. That part is great. My biggest problem with the mic is that you can only monitor the audio in the zoom app. When using it for video you have no way of monitoring (hearing the audio). The mic is advertised as for use with video.. then why wouldn't you be able to monitor it?

The mic makes a crackle sound when used as a stereo mic for FaceBook Live. I mainly bought if for live streaming in stereo but apparently it’s not compatible with Facebook. Unless I’m missing something.

This mic sounds great, way better than your normal iPhone camera, but the two microphones I've gotten so far have both had a terrible issue with static/buzzing. Any slight movement causes the mic to create a loud crackling buzzing sound. I've my second one for a few months and it's been having these issues. I can't return it back to the seller and the manufacturer has a terrible warranty policy.

Really Professional way to Record I believe on a IPhone at least.

Installed the HandyRecorder app for my ipad mini 3 as instructed but it does not recognize the zoom IQ7 microphone. Instructions for the app are only found after an extensive search on the website. I feel like I got the run around from the product support people when I asked about this problem. But the mic works well with GarageBand so I'm not entirely at a loss. I am not happy at all with customer service and the difficulty of using this product without easy access to an operation manual.
