The recently launched Rode NT USB and Apogee MiC 96k are some of the best iOS condenser microphones in the market. One end goes into the USB microphone while the other into the lightning connector port. You can either use a plug-n-play iOS compatible microphone that directly plugs into your iPad or iPhone with a lightning to USB cable. When it comes to choosing an external microphone for your iOS device, you have two options. The in-built mic isn’t bad but if you would like to produce videos with high-quality audio, you will have to use an external microphone. That said, the camera has improved considerably over the years but the one area where iOS devices still need to catch up is the audio. With apps like Adobe Story, iMovie and ScreenChomp, it has become relatively easier for anyone to produce movies, slideshows, podcasts and other visual content on their iPads and iPhones.
