miniDSP UMIK-1 Omni-directional USB Measurement Calibrated MicrophoneUSB calibrated measurement microphone for a plug and play measurement of your system
The UMIK-1 is an omni-directional USB measurement microphone providing Plug & Play acoustic measurement. From speaker & room acoustic measurement to recording, this microphone provides low noise and accurate results you can rely on. Forget about driver installation, OS compatibility and un-calibrated mics. The Umik-1 is a USB Audio class 1 device automatically recognized by all Operating Systems (Windows/Mac) and iPad. It is provided with a unique calibration file based on the serial number to insure an accurate measurement. Combined with our recommended acoustic measurement software, it is the perfect match for a plug and play measurement system.
Features
Windows/Mac/Linux All measurement software Special features such as calibrated SPL measurement enabled under free Room EQ Wizard (REW) software Frequency response: 20 Hz - 20kHz +/-1dB with calibration loaded USB Audio: USB Audio class 1.0 Driverless interface for Windows, Mac & Linux
What's in the box?
1 x UMIK-1 microphone 1 x shielded USB cable USB A to USB c (1.5m) 1 x mini Tripod 1 x foam wind screen
Each UMIK-1 microphone is individually calibrated and comes with a unique calibration file. Additionally, an auto-generated 90-degree calibration file is provided for use in surround sound system setups. To access your calibration files, and scroll to “Calibration File Download.”
Each microphone undergoes three individual calibration steps at the factory to ensure accurate frequency response and SPL (Sound Pressure Level) calibration. These measurements are performed per microphone, not as part of a batch process.
Once calibration is complete, miniDSP generates a dedicated text file that contains the specific calibration data for that microphone. This file is then linked to the microphone’s serial number, making it truly unique—just as the name suggests.

miniDSP provides two calibration files to be used depending on your application. -For stereo system (e.g. 2ch dirac live, single speaker measurement), use the 0deg file and point the UMIK-1 at the speakers -For multichannel system (E.g. 5.1/7.1) or a surround application where multiple speakers are spread out around the room, use the 90deg file and point the UMIK-1 at the ceiling.
Recommended by FriendsThe miniDSP team built long term relationships with the following leading software applications and is proud to showcase them as their recommended software solutions:
: miniDSP worked along with John Mulcahy to develop even greater compatibility for the UMIK-1 inside REW! With the latest beta release of REW (v5.01 and up), the UMIK-1 is automatically recognized by the software and prompted for use when REW is started with the microphone plugged in.
: As a well known reference in the world of room correction with countless high end audio/automotive, miniDSP is honored to have Dirac as one of their partners. The UMIK-1 is the recommended microphone by Dirac Research.
: miniDSP's technical team has been testing the UMIK-1 along with few iPad apps. A plug and play setup for a full featured measurement + SPL meter running from the iPad. Check out our application section for more info.
: Fuzz measure is no stranger to acoustic measurements. This very powerful Mac-only software is now fully integrating import of UMIK-1 calibration file and automatic SPL calibration. Make sure to check it out!
: Amarra Symphony with IRC is an advanced music file player for the Apple Mac platform. It includes a feature called "Impulse Response Correction" (IRC), that corrects for acoustical errors at the listening position caused by early reflections from the speaker and listening room. It also provides the ability to tailor the response at the listening position using target curves.
