    BirdMic Audio Demo

    Thanks a lot for the trust. Speaking of weather, you might be interested in this video. It's amazing what a small parabolic dish is capable of. The windscreen is not available yet, but soon. I insist, the audio is not edited. This is the original audio from Merlin ID in WAV format...

    BirdMic Audio Demo

    Absolutely agree... Making products that fit the iphone is really difficult. We had to search many suppliers to find a suitable adapter. The one we sell is certified as an apple manufacturer and is really expensive, but it is a service that we must provide. A bad adapter destroys any recording.

    BirdMic Audio Demo

    Hi! MerlinID works with no mobile data. You can identify birds with airplane mode activated. BirdNet does not allow it. In anycase, we recommend Merlin app to identify bird songs in live time. I hope it helps, best, Jordi

    Parabolic Phone Mic

    No, that's good news! It means birdmic is a good idea! I think our public is different. We are looking for new customers with no audio devices. Anyway, they don't have stock yet. I don't see how interface and smartphone is attached and if the support is included or not... I supose they are...

    Parabolic Phone Mic

    Hi Jon, with Birdmic you can monitor the audio with no external field recorder (hear the sound in real time through the headphones), that's the point. You can use usb, lightning or jack. Actually, you can record the audio with your smartphone of every parabola on the market (with adapters) but...

    Parabolic Phone Mic

    Hi Jon, at least our microphone works connected directly to the iPhone X ES (without interface) using a jack to lightining adapter. There are lots of microphones on the market with no amplification that works with iPhones. I supose that's not the problem.

    Parabolic Phone Mic

    The signal no need to be amplified, in fact I use Birmic connected to camera with no interface (watch the beginning of the video below, wire is directly connected to capsule). But our interface amplifies the signal too. When you use headphones, amplifies the signal and when we say that...

    Parabolic Phone Mic

    Hi, Birdmic is not only the parabola, we have designed an specific interface that amplifies and modulates the sound (and allows you to hear the birds through the headphones). You don't need an external field recorder. Anyway, if you have a Telinga dish I asume you have a field recorder, then...

    Parabolic Phone Mic

    Oh, I forgot, the device is the same for any phone, you just have to choose the correct cable. This is also explained on the web.

    Parabolic Phone Mic

    Thank you for your comment. Yes, is a bit difficult explain accustics performance. That is one of the problems that we are finding, people do not quite trust. Perhaps that is why we have 60% backers from Catalonia (people who have tried it or have been recommended by experts in the area). I...

    Parabolic Phone Mic

    Absolutely agree. BirdMic has evident limitations due its size (and has evident advantages due its size, too (not related with audio)). But it could be enough for most beginners birders, our target. I repeat, birdmic is not a professional device, but it works well for high frequencies (most...

    Parabolic Phone Mic

    Hi WRL, BirdMic is not a prfessional device but this small dish works, I sware! 😂 Look at this demo please. Notice the difference between the first part of the video (a Wryneck singing very low) and when birdmic is switched on. Thank you!
