Overview

Small, Light and Power Efficient - with 48V/12V of phantom power

Description

2XLR inputs low-noise preamp with 48V/12V phantom power.

"Riggy-Micro" means that it is super small/light/power efficient and has numerous mounting and accessory options (patent pending). Audio output bracketing (patent pending) for camera overload protection. Alkaline/LiPolymer operation (patent pending). Selective power-down mode (patent pending).

The Riggy-Micro RM222 is a feature rich low noise preamp, built tough, and refined to provide the best power efficiency, smallest size, and lightest weight. It's small size and light weight also makes it unique in terms of flexibility for mounting it to your gear. Additionally, it has features that make it even more useful, allowing you to mount other accessories (mics, wireless receivers, etc) to the preamp:

The Riggy-Micro is also so small and light, that it can be mounted on top of your camera in the hot-shoe. It's quite nice to get the preamp off of the bottom of your camera. Now, you can attach a battery grip, or just cradle the camera/lens in the palm of your hand, like a DLSR is traditionally held. You will seperately purchase a cold-shoe to 1/4-20 male to mount to the 1/4-20 female on the bottom of the Riggy-Micro. While mounted on top of your camera, you can add cold shoe mounts (one on the top, and another on the right side) directly to the Riggy-Micro enclosure, using the RB101 Riggy Cold Shoe Attachment.

Cameras and Recorders for the Riggy-Micro

The Riggy-Micro is designed to be used with cameras which already have manual control, meters, and headphones. The preamp does not have AGC Disable, meters or headphones. For a preamp which has those features, then check out the Riggy-Assist line of preamps.
The Riggy-Micro can also be used as a XLR front end to digital audio recorders. Here are some of the many companion devices used with the Riggy-Micro:

  • DSLRs with headphones, meters, manual control: Canon 5DMKIII, Nikon D800, etc
  • Camcorders with headphones, meters, manual control: Canon Vixia HD camcorders, etc
  • Other cameras with stereo minijack mic inputs: Canon C300 (replacing the monitor attachment)
  • Digital Audio Recorders with stereo minijack mic inputs: Zoom H4n, Sony PMD-50

  • 48V phantom power, and power saving 12V phantom mode
  • Camera overload protection - Audio Output Bracketing
  • Audio Output Bracketing (patent pending) duplicates the left channel on the right channel at lower signal level (approximately 16dB lower). So, if the camera overloads on the main signal on the left channel, you have a backup at a safe lower level on the right chanel
  • Audio Output Bracketing adds no noise or distortion, in contrast to the noise and distortion created by limiters. It also consumes no battery power.
  • Approx 30dB max available gain
  • Approx +0dB / -1.5dB frequency response from 20Hz to 20KHz
  • MIC/LINE Switches for each XLR channel
