  • Would give 6 stars!
Voice dictating this review using a Rode microphone running through the Rode AI micro adapter. I’ve had it for 48 hours so far and it’s solved three major sound problems that I haven’t been able to fix for years. The first is that it makes the microphone work in my iPad Pro (USB C) not only for Siri dictation (as I’m doing at this moment), but also works in my EMR application which has cloud-based dictation (dragon medical one) embedded. Also works for Backpack which is a podcasting app. Sound quality is excellent. Also plugs into my iPhone and runs Siri dictation and Backpack - and plugs into my PC to provide audio for video recording I do at work. Three problems solved! ... show more

  • Doesn't work with Discord
I ordered this mainly to use with Discord on iOS on the iPad Pro. However, it simply refuses to work because it is not recognized as a headset. It seems to be a limitation on iOS regarding call audio. The iPad just immediately swaps to the built in mic/speaker as soon as you join a call. The AI Micro works in literally every other app I tried. It worked perfectly well on my PC. It does the same thing on my android phone too so it seems to be a limitation of Discord. It's the smallest audio interface I've ever come across which means its great for recording on phones. I can also imagine using this with my vr headset and a lav mic. ------ Edit: I got the AI Micro to work on my Samsung S8+ by toggling a developer option in Android that was disabling USB audio devices. However, it still doesn't work in Discord since it seems mobile discord will only use 'headsets'. ... show more

  • Ehh didn’t solve my problem…
Doesn’t work for what I wanted it for. All I was looking for was a device that could be used as an audio interface for my social audio apps. As this unit doesn’t take full priority of the audio on the iPhone most apps will default to there own inputs and outputs ie wisdom app won’t let me choose where audio goes and thus keeps me from using my own settings. Would have been nice to use this as a middle part to connect to my mixer but as for software it just causes unknown issues that have to be troubleshooted. Maybe it’s ahead of it’s time and it’s just a waiting period before things work or rode could just make an app that overrides all the audio settings for you… who knows. As of now it’s only main purpose is for doing audio recordings directly to your iPhone with a lavalier mic or something close to that. ... show more

  • I plugged it in and it worked with Android and IMM-6 mic. Really!
With devices like this I am used to hacking around until I find the magic trick that makes it work. Not here. I plugged it into a samsung tab A8, fired up my favorite RTA app, and bam, instant mini test setup. Just like that. I am very pleasantly shocked.

  • Works for social media lives!
So happy to finally find a product that works with two mics on TikTok and Instagram lives. I tried using a standard splitter with my iPhone, but it saw one side as headphones and not two microphones. I bought this product after looking forever for “iPhone mic splitter 2 microphones etc” I found nothing. Then someone mentioned this product on TikTok. It was still hard to find. Rode really needs to up the SEO for this product on Google. It is a very light weight product which is good not the weigh down the cable coming out of the phone. You will need to download the Rode Central app for it to work, which is an auto-process when you plug it into the phone. Then make your audio output choices on the app, separate channels or one mixed, headphones on or off. Super easy to navigate. No problems with audio quality when urging the headphones or in the recording. Very happy. Will update this review if any issues comes up. ... show more

  • Software is almost useless
Ethics statement: I paid full price. No conflicts of interest. Just read the reviews of the Røde Reporter app that the company offers to configure and use this device. Some of the worst software you will find anywhere. Constantly freezes, unresponsive, hinders rather than helps with using the hardware. Another complaint: The hardware will claim to your device that it can do audio output as well. It can't. Your audio output will disappear into the void. ... show more

  • Doesn't work with Filmic pro
I can't get Filmic Pro to recognize the AI Micro at all. Works with voice recording apps, but can't get it to work with video apps. Pretty much useless to me for video, great for audio only.

  • Easy to use
Very simple to hook up and use in any device. The multiple channels makes this being worth it.
