The UMIK-2 is the second generation MiniDSP omnidirectional low-noise measuring microphone. It takes advantage of everything that made the first version, the UMIK-1, so successful, such as its Plug & Play USB interface or its calibration file, unique for each microphone for optimal accuracy.

Of course, the UMIK-2 benefits from significant improvements in performance and functionality. A 1/2" larger capsule is used to achieve lower noise and distortion, preserved by the 32bit ADC integrated in an aluminum chassis. In addition, the sampling rate is selectable from 44.1kHz to 192kHz for extended compatibility with the widest range of measurement and recording software.

The microphone is fully compatible with REW (Room EQ Wizard) and Dirac Live (version 3 and later) software. No driver is required for systems running Mac OS, Linux, Android or iOS, and an ASIO driver is provided for Windows systems for easy integration.

Unique calibration

All UMIK-2s are calibrated using a single calibration file. In addition, a unique 90 degree calibration file is automatically generated. To download the calibration files go to this page and enter the serial number on your microphone in the field provided.

MiniDSP provides two calibration files, to be used according to your audio system :

• For a stereo system, use the 0deg file and point the UMIK-2 at your speakers.
• For a multi-channel system or a surround application where multiple speakers are arranged in the room, use the 90deg file and point the UMIK-2 at the ceiling.
