FAQs:
Can I control the Air SE through the Saramonic app?
Yes, the Saramonic app gives you direct control over key settings while recording. You can adjust noise cancellation strength, switch between mono, stereo and safety track modes, and apply one of the three EQ presets to shape vocal tone. It’s a straightforward setup, so once connected, you can make quick adjustments without interrupting your recording.
What devices are compatible with the Air SE?
The Air SE is designed primarily for smartphones, connecting directly via USB-C or Lightning receivers that draw power from your device. It works with recent iPhone models (from iPhone 11 onwards), most Android phones and tablets for plug-and-play recording. It also works with Mac and Windows computers, as well as selected action cameras such as the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and DJI Action 4. Direct connection to traditional cameras is not supported, so it’s best suited to mobile-first setups.
How do I power the Air SE?
The transmitters run for about 6 hours and extend up to 28 hours when topped up with the charging bar. The bar itself is powered via USB-C using the supplied cable. It takes approximately 1.5 hours to reach full charge. The receiver doesn’t need to be charged, as it draws power directly from your device when connected.
What is the difference between the Air SE-01 and SE-02?
The main difference comes down to what’s included in the box. The SE-01 comes with a single USB-C receiver, while the SE-02 includes both USB-C and Lightning receivers for broader compatibility with newer and older iPhones and Android devices. Aside from that, both versions use the same transmitters, charging bar, and audio features, so recording performance remains the same.
Can I use the furry windshield when the mic is handheld?
Yes, the furry windshield can be used when the mic is handheld and helps reduce wind noise outdoors. However, the transmitter won’t charge while the windshield is attached, so you’ll need to remove it when recharging.
