Comica LINKFLEX.AD3 2-Channel XLR/3.5mm/6.35mm Microphone Audio Mixer Preamp with Phantom Power, Real-time Monitoring, Guitar Audio Interface Microphone for DSLR Cameras Camcorders Smartphones Tablets

I’m able to record both voice and guitar in to my iPhone 6. Great tool to capture video with great audio quality.Also I edit and trim the clip in Final Cut and enhance the audio to the best quality, ready for streaming to the favorite social media channels.

I love the device you have so many options to choose.

The media could not be loaded. This unit fills the void for me, because my video camera does not have Professional XLR Audio Inputs. This unit receives 1/4" , XLR, and 3.5mm Audio cable connections. What impresses me the most is that it can deliver Phantom Power to shotgun microphones. The one drawback for me with this unit is that it has a 9 volt battery powering it and I do not see any battery indicator to tell you how much power is left in the battery. However this unit was not made for the way I'm mounting it. I believe it was made to attach to a mic stand or belt on a person. I chose to modify it to mount on my camera. So I can not ding them for this. The unit could use a little more gain level, but does suffice for my professional use. You get a louder noise floor if you try and turn the gain up past the 12 O'clock position. All in All this unit is a God Send for me and my camera rig.

I got this mixer to use for an on location live stream. It mixed two audio sources together, but it's extremely wonky. To have two mics in both channels, you have to turn the m/s switch to m. No problem there, but channels 1 and 2 appeared to be linked together, as in order to hear channel 2, channel 1 has to be turned up as well. Super weird. Also, if it's a long event your battery will go quick. Using Energizer max 9v, I got around 3 hrs out of it. Also when it fails it fails HARD. It started making a distorted bass tone that over powered everything. If you get this, use good batteries and make sure to change them around the 3hr mark, especially if you're using the 48v powerAdditionally, it was not easy mounting it to a camera cage. There was no mounting hole for it, so I drilled a hole in the belt clip. This also made the battery compartment difficult to reach and change batteries in.For the money I paid, it mostly did what I asked it to. Not exceedingly well, but good enough.

Audio Quality is terrible. Do yourself a favor and just grab a focusrite for a few extra bucks

Works good, easy to use, sound is great, worked with my two XLR mics and my aux Jack mic, worth the money if you really need it. The only thing is it won't work for taking videos, only audios. Great for if you want to make music or if you want to do an audio podcast. But if you're looking for something to do videos or lives with, don't waste your money. Battery life is good, jus got some basic 9v and it didn't die on me once. I returned it because I ended up realizing I don't need it. Still a good product if you really need it tho.PS. You might have trouble opening and closing the battery socket, it's tough.

Instructions aren't clear if this is for acoustic guitars with pick ups only or also electric, the pre amp has too little gain for my dynamic mic or my pick up equipped ukulele and I could not get my electric instruments through it at all, even when through an amp. I don't understand the general secrecy in the industry about what jacks they have and need to connect. It may have worked but every version of adapter I tried did not work especially with adapters to Apple lightning and don't even get me started on the Gopro mic adapter... I don't understand why every jack we buy isn't clearly labeled so we can know what the right adapters that are needed for every instance. This is not just with this, it is an industry wide problem. We can see that this is a trrs jack, but there are two standards, the bottom two rings can be mic/ground or ground/mic. According to one source the black insulators means it is the less common China version. Maybe. If so another adapter is needed to reverse the ground/mic ring configuration. Because the preamps are so weak for the money I give up finding out and sent it back. I discovered my Zoom 4hn does a better job as a pass through device, it even has combo xlr/1/4" mic inputs for the dynamic instrument mic I am trying to set up. Also discovered that running the electric instruments through my Line 6 Sonic Port into the iPad and on to the camera gives a much superior and manipulable feed to my camera. So much for a small portable all in one package that I can use on my iPhone 7 that does not have a 3.5 jack though. I may have to give up on using the dynamic intrument cardoid mic with the phone. Which was the primary purpose of this device for me.

They don't tell you, but this will not record stereo on a smartphone. I tried every combination of switches and cables with no luck. I contacted Comica's tech support and this is the answer I got."May I know which device you connected to the AD3 for recording? If you connected a smartphone to the AD3, there is no stereo sound. Because the TRRS technology does not support stereo transmission."It would have been nice to know this before I bought it. I returned it. I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 because it works ok recording in mono. just be aware before purchasing.
