Description
The Voyage Audio Spatial Mic Kit 360-Degree Ambisonic Microphone with Dante Connectivity captures the entire sound field with precision - letting you focus on recording immersive audio for VR, surround sound, spatial music, concert recording, live broadcasts and much more.
No need for complex multi-microphone & preamp setups - just plug-in and record. The Spatial Mic Converter plugin transforms the raw unprocessed audio signals from Spatial Mic Dante to a number of different formats suitable for any type of audio production. To accomplish this, Spatial Mic Converter uses an internal 64-channel filter matrix and measurements from an anechoic chamber.
8 Capsule Spatial Audio Capture
High spatial resolution made possible with 8 analog capsules for 2nd Order Ambisonics. Record the raw output and decode in post with the included Spatial Mic Converter Plugin, or natively on a Dante network for surround or virtual mic feeds.
Record Everything
Capture quiet nature sounds, loud concerts or anything in between with capsule SNR of up to 78dB-A and 136 dB Max SPL.
Individual Calibration
Each microphone is individually calibrated prior to shipping for quick recording with a balanced array.
High Performance Audio Design
Professional quality analog to digital conversion, high resolution Skyworks clocking scheme and built-in 32-bit XMOS Processor.
