1PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Thank you for purchasing a miniDSP UMIK-2 omni-directional USB measurement microphone. The UMIK-2
features a low-noise ½-inch microphone capsule, low-noise A/D convertor, and support for sample rates from
44.1 to 192 kHz.
Each UMIK-2 has a unique calibration file for measurement accuracy. A generated 90-degree calibration file is
also provided for multichannel/surround-sound applications.
The UMIK-2 has driverless operation with macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. A supplied ASIO driver for Windows
ensures simple integration into many measurement and recording applications. The UMIK-2 is of course fully
compatible with Room EQ Wizard (REW) and Dirac Live (version 3 and later). Many other applications are also
perfectly suited to the UMIK-2:
•Speaker measurement and design
•Room corrections
•Acoustical measurement and characterization
