Saramonic SR-Q2M Metal Handheld Stereo Audio Recorder for Cameras, Black

The Saramonic SR-Q2M is a compact and lightweight handheld audio recorder with rugged, metal construction. It features a pair of high-quality stereo condenser microphones that make it easy to capture rich, broadcast-quality sound for video productions, music recording, podcasting, journalism and more. The SR-Q2M can also record line-level signals or external microphones with its separate dedicated 3.5mm mic and line inputs Two 3.5mm outputs let you connect headphones and send audio to cameras and other devices. A RX-C remote control, a 6’ wired lavalier, an 8GB MicroSD card, a protective travel case, high-wind furry and foam windscreens and more are all included. The SR-Q2M records up to 96kHz high-resolution audio files that you can share with a computer via the built-in USB-C port and included cable.

Straightforward and flexible:

The SR-Q2M makes recording great sounding audio as easy as pressing a single button. You simply switch it on, press Record — and you’re rolling! The easy-to-read backlit LCD screen tells you everything you need to know, and LED lights let you know when you’re recording, when the signal is peaking, and when you’re connected through USB-C. Recording levels can be quickly adjusted with dedicated buttons, and volume buttons let you raise or lower the level of the headphones and the built-in speaker.

Plays well with others:

Got an external microphone? The SR-Q2M has a dedicated stereo input for it. Want to record line-level audio from DJ mixer or another device? The SR-Q2M has a dedicated input for that, too. Want to connect your audio directly into a camera? The dedicated line output on the SR-Q2M can be plugged directly into the mic input on a camera to record great sounding audio without needing an expensive attenuator cable. It also has a headphone output that lets you always monitor the audio, no matter what you’re doing.

Every must-have accessory is included:

Other portable audio recorders make you purchase essential accessories separately, but with the SR-Q2M — everything you need comes in the box. The included MicroSD card has a generous 8GB capacity (and it’s compatible with up to 128GB cards), you get two windscreens: a high-wind furry for outdoor use, and a foam windscreen that will reduce plosive and drafty air noises. The rugged SR-Q2M was built to join you on your adventures, so it comes with a useful protective travel case. This recorder features a modern USB-C port, so a gold-plated USB-C to USB-A cable is included. In addition, it also includes the RX-C remote control and a wired lavalier with 6’ cable, making the SR-Q2M an even better value.

Power features for everyone:

If you’ve never operated an audio recorder before, the SR-Q2M is incredibly easy to pick up and start using, but if you want to dig a little deeper, it has powerful features on tap. Need to avoid recording ultra-low frequency sounds like footsteps? Turn on the variable low-cut filter. Working in an unpredictable environment? Turn on the built-in limiter and never clip. What to stick the SR-Q2M in your subject’s pocket and discretely record dialog? Plug in the included wired lavalier and switch on the Hold function and avoid unwanted settings changes. Need to mount the SR-Q2M beyond your reach? Control it with the included RC-X remote control. Need to mount the SR-Q2M to a camera cage, small tripod stands or elsewhere?
