HISONG Music Technologies claims the AirStudio S1 is the first truly all-in-one mobile recording capsule, and the pitch is wild: a compact dual-pattern mic, built-in wireless in-ear monitors, and a full audio interface that pairs with phones, tablets, and laptops without drama.
What Is AirStudio S1, Exactly?
The core is a dual-pattern microphone that flips between a studio-style condenser and an enhanced dynamic pickup, with a built-in pop filter to keep plosives in check. That lets singer-songwriters capture airy vocals one minute and tighter, rejection-friendly takes the next, all from the same capsule.
Built-In IEMs With Studio Monitoring Ambitions
HISONG bundles wireless in-ear monitors using 13 mm drivers tuned for a claimed 20 Hz–20 kHz range. The company touts near-zero latency monitoring, which matters when you’re tracking vocals or guitar to a beat and cannot afford slap-back delay messing with your timing.
Mobile-First Interface, Real-Time DSP, Real DAW Support
Under the hood, on-board DSP delivers real-time reverb, EQ, and noise reduction. The AirStudio S1 talks to popular DAWs like Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Cubase, FL Studio, and Pro Tools, plus mobile apps such as GarageBand and BandLab. Every unit includes Steinberg’s Cubasis LE for iOS at no extra cost, so you can draft songs on day one.
Smart Control, Wireless Rigs, and Battery Life
The companion HISONG Link app exposes a pro-style mixer for gain staging, FX, and routing. Battery life is rated up to 8 hours for both the mic and earbuds, which is enough for a location session, a two-set gig, or a long streaming block without reaching for a charger.
Creators can pick from three kits. The 4-in-1 Musician Kit includes the mic, IEMs, USB-C in/out interface, and app. The 5-in-1 Creator Kit adds a Wireless RX Mini (USB-C out) for phones and cameras with imperceptible latency. The 6-in-1 Master Kit swaps in a Wireless RX Plus with 3.5 mm out for direct hooks into speakers, mixers, and cinema bodies.
AirStudio S1 launches on Kickstarter on Oct 14, 2025 with discounted campaign pricing: $299 (Musician), $349 (Creator), and $399 (Master). If the idea of a pocketable studio that doubles as your live monitoring rig sounds appealing, keep an eye on HISONG Music Technologies for availability after the crowdfunding run.
