I forget what it is called...

There are these things that screw on to the bottom of your camera (in the tripod hole), they have two or more xlr inputs on the side, and they have a wire that plugs into the mic input. They cost like 3-500 bucks. They are so you can use an XLR mic when you only have a 3.5mm jack input. What are they called? Thank you.
