Compact On-Camera Microphone

The AndyCine M1 is a cardioid condenser microphone designed for on-camera use with DSLR cameras, camcorders, recorders, PCs, tablets and smartphones that have a 3.5 mm audio jack. It targets creators who need a lightweight, plug-and-play audio upgrade for interviews, vlogs and dialogue recording without carrying bulky gear.

Thermals Noise and Power

The unit requires no batteries and draws power directly from the connected device through the 3.5 mm TRRS cable, so it adds no heat or fan noise to the setup. Its unidirectional pickup pattern and integrated shock-mount minimise handling vibration and peripheral environmental noise, while a supplied windshield further reduces wind interference during outdoor sessions.

Build Integration

A cold shoe mount with a 1/4 inch thread on the bottom lets the microphone sit on a camera hot shoe, a bracket or a small tripod. The 3.5 mm TRRS connector plugs straight into compatible cameras, PCs, iPads and smartphones with a headset jack; iPhone models with a Lightning port and Android models with USB-C need their own 3.5 mm adapters, which are not included. The frequency response spans 40 to 18 kHz with a sensitivity of -38 dB and a signal-to-noise ratio rated at 130 dB SPL.

Questions about this item

How do I attach the M1 to my camera and connect the cable without picking up handling noise?

Slide the microphone onto the cold shoe mount, tighten the 1/4" thread on the bottom, then plug the 3.5 mm TRRS cable into the camera's mic jack; the integrated shock-mount isolates vibration so the cable does not transmit handling noise.

What part will need replacement first if the foam windshield degrades?

The foam windshield supplied with the microphone is the only consumable; it can be replaced with any standard shotgun-style foam cover when it crumbles or tears.

At what sound-pressure level does the microphone hit its 130 dB SPL limit during a loud concert?

The specified maximum SPL is 130 dB, so sustained sources louder than that — such as a front-of-house PA at a concert — will cause distortion before any other limit is reached.
