Song Meter Micro 2 is the new and further developed micro model which is the smallest in the Song Meter range.
It is an affordable alternative to the Song Meter Mini Acoustic Recorder, which lends itself well to multiple recorders that can be used simultaneously for a project. The updates include better weather sealing, 33 percent longer battery life, easier opening with a latch that sticks, and a new tripod mount. This is a simple yet innovative device for recording birds, frogs and other species that communicate with sound. The Song Meter Micro is weatherproof, robust and easy to mount with screws, ropes or cables. The recorder comes complete with a built-in microphone. The recorder's schedule, settings and status are controlled via Bluetooth using an app that can be downloaded for free to your iOS or Android phone/tablet. There is also an option to set the location and time zone of your Song Meter Micro using the GPS from your mobile phone. The app is easy to use and allows you to manage multiple recorders simultaneously. You can also check the status of your recorder using the LEDs on the device. This unit is compatible with Kaleidoscope Pro Software to help you analyze your recordings. (free version available).
Powered internally using 3x AA batteries which last up to 240 hours and recordings are stored in 16-bit WAV format on a microSD card. Batteries and SD card not included.
