If you looking for a good digital interface for your uke with a pickup installed, I really like the Apogee JAM for iOS, Mac or PC (with ASIO4all)

Apogee is running some black friday deals on refurbs. Grab one of these for $69.

Caveat, they only include the 30pin and USB connectors at that price. If you have a lightning port, you will have to buy another cable.

Thanks for the heads up! :shaka:

I am surprised that as of now , there are no other replies to this thread :(

Also from that page on Apogee's site they have their 'Black Friday deals' (http://store.apogeedigital.com/store/index.php/black-friday-2014.html)

which include:

- the Apogee MIC, normally $199, refurb on sale for $129 :p

- the Apogee ONE for iPad and Mac, normally $349, refurb on sale for $249 :drool:

(and a few others)

sale ends TOMORROW December 2nd, so if you want an Apogee device, these prices are the best I've ever seen.

I've been deliberating this all weekend, and just cant decide for myself.

The Apogee MIC is great if you have multiple ukes that you want to use for recording, but dont want to put a pickup in each uke (it's also A LOT cheaper than getting a Mi-Si or Five.O installed in each instrument)

Fellow UU brother Olarte has many excellent videos posted here on the forum/youtube using this equipment that you can see/hear for sound demos.

For those just starting out with recording, and/or wanting a SIMPLE setup, the Apogee MIC and JAM are considered the top-of-the-line.

For myself, I am leaning towards being able to do stereo recording via X-Y or ORTF mic set up, so unless there is a magical way to use two Apogee MICs with the iPad, I am probably looking at something else to fill my needs...
 
Thanks for the shoutout Booli.

Aside from my mediocre playing if you do check out my videos you will see that the sound is static free and nice and clear in some you can see the apogee mic on the bottom of the screen.

For the money specially the same price both Mic and Jam are excellent products. Very easy to use, literally a no brainer and excellent clear sound. I do recommend the longer optional chord specially for the Mic as you don't wan't your iPad or iPhone 1m/2ft away from it. The optional cord is something like 9 feet long.

I have both the Jam and the Mic but if I had to pic just one it would be the Mic. They also have work with a Mac via the usb cable. It does not work with windows although I've heard there is a workaround.
