nxtMic FAQs

“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.

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.

The nxtMic is exceptionally compact, designed to be the world’s smallest wireless microphone with built-in 32-bit floating point recording. Its groundbreaking “impossible size” delivers incredible sound quality in an ultra-portable package, making it the most compact solution for professional-grade audio capture.

Picture a microphone so discreet it could slip into your setup unnoticed, so light it barely registers in your hand.
