Peter has a
Mikey Digital for use with his iPhone. He originally purchased it for use with his iPhone 4, and now he has the iPhone 6 he has had to purchase an adaptor to connect it. This is what he has to say about the Mikey Digital.
Here are a couple of photos of my actual 'Mikey Digital' and connectors. I do get good results with it, when it works. The mic on its own is fantastic. Just plugs into the charging point on my iPhone 6s and away you go. I've taken it to concerts, Just fits in your shirt pocket, no wires, with amazing results. It's easy as you can see to record direct using the wires, but its weakness is that a couple of the connections can work a bit loose, and that is where you have problems. The reviews I have read today do confirm that it is a stereo recording through the stereo 3.5 socket pictured.
I have found this product on Amazon, priced at £43.49

So Peter reckons it was the connectors that caused his recordings to end up as 'two-track Mono'. I will check some of the other recordings he has put up on YouTube to see whether or not they are in Stereo.
