nxtMic FAQs
What is nxtMic?
“nxtMic” stands for “Next Generation Microphones” and is pronounced just like it looks: “Next Mic.”
nxtMic is a groundbreaking lavalier-sized wireless microphone with built-in 32-bit float recording, developed by Big Little Audio, designed to deliver stunning, studio-quality sound in an incredibly compact and portable form.
Unlike traditional microphones, the nxtMic combines a nano-sized design—just 1/3 inch (8.5 mm) in diameter and 0.9 inches (23.4 mm) in length—with advanced technology like built-in 32-bit floating-point recording and Advanced Audio Intelligence.
This makes it a powerful tool for creators, musicians, and professionals who need exceptional sound recordings without the bulk or complexity of traditional setups.
What audio formats does nxtMic support?
nxtMic stores audio data as 32-bit floating point audio and allows it to be saved in either 32-bit floating point or 24-bit WAV file formats, with sample rate options of 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz.
What is the size of nxtMic?
Picture a microphone so discreet it could slip into your setup unnoticed, so light it barely registers in your hand. That’s the nxtMic—clocking in at just 8.5 mm (0.335 inches) in diameter and 23.4 mm (0.921 inches) in length, with a featherweight 2.4 grams (0.085 ounces). It’s as compact as a size 00 gelatin capsule, matching both its diameter and length, and weighs about as much as a dime. But don’t let its size fool you—this isn’t some lav mic; it’s a professional-grade audio powerhouse designed to redefine your sound.
