Apogee MiC 96k
An amazing portable studio-quality microphone. Seriously, this mic is amazing! It records audio at 24 bit 96kHz quality, and captures all the little details in the room so well. What's great is it plugs right into your Mac's USB, or into an iPhone/iPad, and has Apogee's incredible digital-audio converters built right in. So all you really have to do is adjust the level with the gain knob, and start recording!
