IK Multimedia iRig Stream

The IK Multimedia iRig Stream is a compact audio interface designed specifically for live streaming, mobile recording, and creating online content. Connect a mixer, DJ controller, keyboard, synthesizer, drum machine, or other audio source and send the audio directly to your smartphone, tablet, or computer. The iRig Stream works with iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, and Windows and can be used with apps that record and stream audio or video.

Stream audio from your mixer or instrument
On the top of the iRig Stream, you’ll find a stereo RCA line input. Use this to connect, for example, the stereo output of a DJ mixer, mixing console, keyboard, or synthesizer. You can adjust the input level using the large Level knob. Three LED indicators for Low, OK, and High show whether the signal is coming in at the correct level and help prevent clipping. The iRig Stream features 24-bit A/D and D/A converters and supports sample rates of 44.1 and 48 kHz. This allows you to send the signal from your external equipment to your recording or streaming app with high audio quality.

Combine three audio sources
A key advantage of the iRig Stream is its ability to combine different audio sources. In addition to the signal from the RCA inputs, you can also add audio from the connected device. You can also connect a headset with a built-in microphone via the combined 3.5 mm headphone/microphone jack. For example, you can combine music from a mixer with audio from your smartphone, tablet, or computer while simultaneously adding your voice. This makes the iRig Stream ideal for live streams, DJ sets, podcasts, online classes, rehearsal recordings, demonstrations, and social media content, among other uses.

Loopback for Audio from Your Device
The Loopback feature allows you to route audio playing on your smartphone, tablet, or computer back into the audio stream. This allows you, for example, to combine a backing track, music player, or other audio signal from the connected device with the external source connected to the RCA inputs. Loopback is especially useful for live streaming and creating content where both the sound from connected equipment and audio from the device you’re using need to be recorded.

Mono or Stereo
Not every streaming or social media app supports stereo audio. That’s why the iRig Stream has a Mono switch. In stereo mode, the left and right channels of the RCA input remain separate. In mono mode, both channels are combined into a single mono signal. This prevents information located entirely on the left or right side of the mix from being lost when an app supports mono only.

Headphone and Microphone The 3.5 mm TRRS jack combines a headphone output with a microphone input. This allows you to use a compatible headset with a built-in microphone to listen to the audio signal and add voice input at the same time. The microphone level is independently adjustable. This connector complies with the CTIA/AHJ standard and can also be used with compatible IK Multimedia microphone solutions.

For smartphones, tablets, Macs, and PCs
The iRig Stream is designed to work with mobile devices and computers. It is powered by the connected device, so no batteries are required for normal use. For longer mobile sessions, an optional IK Multimedia power supply can be used. This allows the interface to be powered while a compatible connected iOS device is charging. The iRig Stream works with apps that can record or stream audio or video. A dedicated ASIO driver is available for Windows. This makes the interface not only ideal for mobile live streaming but also for use with recording and streaming software on a computer.
