Turn your iPhone or iPad into a professional wireless studio microphone and camera setup. WirelessMic lets you pair two iOS devices seamlessly: one acts as the Transmitter (wireless microphone) and the other as the Receiver (camera recorder). It is the ultimate tool for content creators, mobile journalists, podcasters, and videographers who need crystal-clear audio synced perfectly with high-definition video. HOW IT WORKS: 1. Open WirelessMic on two devices connected to the same Wi-Fi network. 2. Set one device as the "Transmitter Module" (it will capture the audio). 3. Set the second device as the "Recorder Module" (it will record the video). 4. Point the camera, hit record, and capture professional videos with perfectly synchronized audio from the remote device. KEY FEATURES: PROFESSIONAL TRANSMITTER (MIC MODE) - High-fidelity 48kHz audio capture for broadcast-quality sound. - Premium Industrial DSP Rack: Real-time audio processing controls. - Dynamic Noise Suppression: Keep your audio clean by filtering out hums and ambient noise. - Low-Cut Filter (80Hz): Easily remove wind or vibration rumble. - Digital Gain Control: Boost or tame input volume on the fly (1.0x to 5.0x). - Active Audio Input display: Automatically shows the device in use (Internal Mic, wired headset, or Bluetooth/AirPods). ADVANCED RECORDER (CAMERA MODE) - Beautiful Neumorphic Viewfinder chassis with simulated CRT/LCD indicators. - Support for 1080P and 4K recording resolutions at 30 or 60 FPS. - Live Segmented LED VU Meter: Keep track of remote audio levels in real time. - Exposure Bias Slider: Brighten or darken your scene easily (-2.0 EV to +2.0 EV). - Multi-Camera Lens support: Toggle seamlessly through all physical cameras (Main, Ultra Wide, Telephoto, and Front). - Smooth Zoom Gestures: Use native pinch-to-zoom gestures up to 15.0x digital zoom. - Tap-to-Focus & Exposure Lock: Active yellow ring indicator to lock focus on the fly. - Torch/Flash control integrated into the viewport. - Locked orientation during recording to prevent accidental layout shifts. ULTRA-LOW LATENCY & HYPER-SYNC - Custom low-latency audio transmission protocol built on top of Multipeer Connectivity. - Sub-millisecond NTP-based clock synchronization to compensate for network latency. - Dynamic audio delay compensation for perfect lip-sync out of the box. SLICK INDUSTRIAL DESIGN - Premium skeuomorphic aesthetic inspired by legendary field recorders. - Haptic Feedback: Tactile vibration responses for key controls. - Battery and network efficiency built from the ground up. No expensive wireless microphone systems, receivers, or dongles needed. Harness the power of your existing Apple devices to capture stunning videos with high-end, studio-grade audio.
