Review: Usual Rode Quality - I bought this to fix the low audio level on a channel in a church livestream, to replace a simple 3.5mm jack to USB adapter by having a programmable amplifier (ProAm line levels don't match). As it turned out, I was able to source another channel route that had the required level. I had this set to be returned, unneeded, but before dropping it into the Post Office I decided to keep it anyway. I've several church AV systems in our parish still to upgrade and it might come in useful later on. Being able to preset the gain (and different for each channel) was something I recall would have been useful on a previous rig-up. Even if not in a final rig, it's useful to have it to to hand for tests. As a piece of audio kit it's well made and, as far as I can tell with my own trials, it does exactly what Rode claim. Being able to rely on kit, especially when relying on non-tech folk to run it, is essential. Rode kit is never in the bargain bin (price-wise) but I've never, so far, been able to fault Rode quality. Review: Works perfectly as a stereo line input.. but strangely, they never mention that! - Have you ever tried to get a line level input into your smartphone? Well, it is so much harder than you might think. Sure, you can cobble and fudge something together with splitters and converters, but it will always be mono and because these converters are designed for microphones (which require the incoming signal to be amplified) you are risking overloading your precious phone and need to manually attenuate the signal by sending it low from the source. That said, on my iPhone 15 Pro, it did work, but in a very basic, slightly noisy, no direct monitoring kind of a way. The next step up from this, a device type made (can you believable it) by only one company, called a Headset Buddy. For 20 or so quid you can buy their adapter cable which is basically the same as using splitters, aside from the line-level attenuation is handled inside the cable. This is neater, but you are still limited to mono and if you want to hear/monitor what you are sending in, you need (wait for it) more splitters :(. At this point, if a respectable brand like Rode offered something to do this job elegantly, but with the addition of stereo input and direct monitoring and a really clear signal, for around £60, you'd probably bite their hands off. Trouble is, like me, you might not realise that such a device exists because they fail to mention this in any of their promotional literature. The Rode AI-Micro is billed solely as a microphone interface and so appears to be out of scope for this job. Now, all other products capable of fulfilling this simple task are full audio interfaces. These feel like overkill for this task. Even the small ones feel big and clunky in this context and many (even the relatively tiny Zoom AMS-22) cannot be powered from your phone alone and require additional power. So, if like me, portability and simplicity are of key importance, this quickly becomes not that. The happy ending here is, that after buying the Rode AI-Micro and trying it for myself, I realised that it is perfectly suited to this task. Their Rode Reporter app lets you set the device into stereo mode and you can set the DB down to 0db and it works like a dream with any iOS application with recording functionality. I considered giving this product just a one-star rating due to the shocking miscommunication from Rode of what this product is suited for, but I'm so happy with it, that I just couldn't :D ## Features - Ultra-compact dual-channel interface for recording high-quality audio on computers and mobile devices, including iPhone, iPad, Android, PC and Mac - Compatible with virtually any microphone with a 3.5mm output, including RØDE VideoMics, lavaliers, wireless systems, and stereo microphones - Auto-sensing inputs for connecting TRS or TRRS microphones for instant set-up with any type of microphone, no complex settings required - High-power headphone output for crystal-clear, zero-latency audio monitoring and playback - Connects seamlessly to computers, smartphones and tablets via the universal USB output (USB-A, USB-C and Lightning cables supplied) - Compatible with the entire RØDE app suite for expanded features and functionality, on-the-go configuration, and broadcast-quality recording on any device - The ideal audio solution for any recording or streaming situation, including Zoom calls, podcasting, mobile recording and filmmaking ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09KZJTW73 | | Audio Input | 3.5mm TRS, 3.5mm TRRS | | Best Sellers Rank | 2,666 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 36 in Computer Audio Interfaces | | Brand Name | RØDE | | Compatible Devices | Headphone, Microphone, Personal Computer, Smartphone | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Country of Origin | Austria | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (1,050) | | Included Components | Accessories - Other + Manual | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 14.9D x 8.3W x 4.3H centimetres | | Item Type Name | Dual Channel Audio Interface | | Item Weight | 13 Grams | | Manufacturer | RØDE | | Manufacturer Part Number | AIMICRO | | Maximum Sample Rate | 20 KHz | | Model Number | Ai Micro | | Number of Channels | 2 | | Product Warranty | 2 years. | | Supported Software | Android, iOS, mac | | UPC | 698813007530 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** RØDE - **Compatible devices:** Headphone, Microphone, Personal Computer, Smartphone - **Connectivity technology:** USB - **Number of channels:** 2 - **Supported software:** Android, iOS, mac ## Images ![AI-Micro Ultra Compact Dual Channel Audio Interface for Computers, Smartphones and Tablets ( ‎Android, iOS, mac ), Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/416K7yG0g2L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How much voltage is supplied from the microphone inputs for condenser microphones?** A: Probably would not try this with a condenser mic. No way it supplies enough voltage. **Q: When connected to a MacBook Pro, will this unit provide plug-in power to a VideoMic NTG or other similar microphones?** A: As far as I know it is only compatible with Rode microphones. **Q: can i use this to use my rode mic pro on zoom calls?** A: Great device. Works with any microphone and any application on an iPad so far in my experience, although I have not tried it for zoom calls, per se. **Q: how well does this work with rode videomicro pro or similar on-camera shotgun mic with 3.5mm connection?** A: Working very good ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Usual Rode Quality *by S***N on 18 June 2025* I bought this to fix the low audio level on a channel in a church livestream, to replace a simple 3.5mm jack to USB adapter by having a programmable amplifier (ProAm line levels don't match).

If you get the Rode app you also get an immediate firmware update. My only gripe: It could do with some kind of attachment point. I've secured it to my mic pistol grip with elastic bands, which looks kinda cool actually... ## Frequently Bought Together - Rode AI-Micro USB Audio Interface,Black - Rode SmartLav+ Lavalier Microphone for Smartphones,Black - Rode SC1 TRRS Extension Cable For SmartLav+ Microphone, 20 Feet --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/382125216-ai-micro-ultra-compact-dual-channel-audio-interface-for-computers](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/382125216-ai-micro-ultra-compact-dual-channel-audio-interface-for-computers) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
