Description

Precision Spatial Audio Capture

Spatial Mic lets you focus on recording immersive audio for VR, ATMOS, spatial music, concert recording, live broadcasts and much more. Want to use it in traditional stereo session? No Problem – the included software makes it easy to decode to stereo and aim virtual mics around the soundfield. No need for expensive multi-microphone & preamp setups – just plug-in and record with either Dante audio networking or USB/ADAT models.

Innovative Recording

360º Creativity

From studio to field, live concerts and the latest XR applications, your next adventure begins with Spatial Mic.

Future Proof Immersive Production

Record audio for evolving formats in VR/AR and leverage Dante audio networking to create 6 Degree Of Freedom experiences with multiple Spatial Mics.

Portability Redefined

Low noise & high SPL handling with single wire connectivity provides the freedom to leave bulky gear at home — even in the most demanding environments.

Critical Recording Flexibility

Spatial Mic transforms audio capture in the recording studio with unmatched control, versatility, quality and unique connectivity options to compliment your setup.

Broadcast & Live Concerts

Capture or live stream mono, stereo or multichannel audio feeds for sporting events, concerts, television, YouTube 360, Facebook 360 and more.

Expand Your Vision

Open new markets for your business and deliver content to Dolby Atmos, ambisonics or explore the sound field in mono, stereo X/Y, Blumlein or any format you would normally use for your production.

Test & Measurement

Use Spatial Mic to record & playback Impulse Responses in an acoustic space, view hotspots and sound reflections or explore new ways to interact with sound.

Complete Soundfield Control

The Spatial Mic Converter plugin (AAX, Audio Unit & VST3) transforms the raw audio signals from Spatial Mic to Virtual Mics and first or second order ambisonics in AmbiX or Fuma formats. To accomplish this, Spatial Mic Converter uses an internal 64-channel filter matrix and measurements from an anechoic chamber.

Spatial Mic Converter offers the capability to change the microphone’s aim at the point in space where the audio was recorded. This is useful when aligning audio position with 360 video, or aiming the mic at a specific sound that should be in front of the listener.

The Virtual Mic can output several different types of higher order patterns that go far beyond classic Omni → Cardioid → Figure-8.

Spatial Mic Control app

The Spatial Mic Control app provides remote manipulation of various hardware parameters on Spatial Mic. Spatial Mic Control communicates with the microphone through the same USB cable used to supply power and stream audio data. Spatial Mic Control replicates the hardware controls found on Spatial Mic itself and adds additional functionality.

 

MicNet Control App

MicNet Control provides remote control of the analog stage and internal DSP processing of Spatial Mic Dante. Computers on the Dante network running MicNet Control can change the parameters of any microphone on the network.  MicNet Control can change the audio output format which is accomplished in the microphone itself via DSP. Output options include unprocessed (for Spatial Mic Converter Plugin), 1st order ambisonics, surround feeds and virtual mic mono or stereo pairs. These additional options beyond unprocessed audio open up many applications for live performance and broadcast when low latency audio feeds are needed.
