Sonosax SX-M2D2 audio interface – a ‘Swiss army knife’ for on-camera audio - Newsshooter

newsshooter.com

The Sonosax SX-M2D2 is a versatile audio interface likened to a Swiss army knife for its array of features, including compatibility with iOS and Android devices, multiple input options, and high-quality preamps. Its ability to connect professional microphones to smartphones and function as a sound card for PCs and Macs makes it a flexible choice for on-camera audio. However, with a price tag expected to exceed €1,000 and the lack of a universal mounting solution at the time of review, potential buyers might weigh these against its multifunctionality.
