The compression options can broadly be described as off, gentle, medium and full-on.
The compression settings are indicated by three tiny, multi-colour LEDs that also double as signal level meters. The Apogee HypeMiC is built to last and lives up to the Apogee name for quality, both in build and performance. However, there's no frequency plot and no specified frequency response, which is unusual for a microphone of this price. Sensitivity is specified as -36dB (94dB SPL at 1kHz).
The noise performance of the built-in preamp is specified as -108dB A‑weighted at 0dB gain, with a maximum gain of 46dB avilable.
APPLE COMPRESSOR 3.5 MANUAL MAC OS
The mic offers plug-and-play operation with iOS (version 9 or later), Mac OS and Windows, and is fully compatible with Core Audio on the Mac OS platform, meaning that no additional drivers are necessary. It can run at up to 24-bit/96kHz and comes with an accessory kit that includes a substantial metal desktop tripod with 'tilt and pan' mic mount, a metal mesh‑screen pop filter and a semi-rigid woven carrying case that also contains three types of cable: micro-USB to USB-C, micro-USB to USB-A, and micro-USB to Apple Lightning connector. Outwardly, the HypeMiC looks very similar to the Apogee MiC+, and uses the same medium‑diameter cardioid‑pattern capacitor capsule. However, the new Apogee HypeMiC takes things a step further: in addition to its USB computer/tablet connectivity, a headphone output with variable source/DAW mix monitoring and Apogee‑quality converters, it also includes a three-preset analogue compressor, designed specifically to flatter spoken or sung vocals. USB microphones are nothing new, and nor are Apogee new to making them - previous models include the original MiC, the MiC 96k, and their current model, the MiC+. With its built-in analogue compressor, Apogee's latest USB mic aims to give you radio-ready recordings straight out of the box.
