Microphone Sennheiser AMBEO VR Mic Black

The elegant and user-friendly AMBEO® VR Mic was developed in close collaboration with experienced audio engineers directly involved in the creation of VR content, and further refined through a separate, extensive VR Creators program, which includes many experts in both audio and field of virtual reality technologies. The device fully corresponds to the level of tasks facing a modern specialist working with VR content. The microphone allows you to convey with the highest accuracy the entire depth and acoustic originality of any required location and actually immerse the listener in its unique live audio atmosphere.

The AMBEO® VR Mic is extremely easy to use. This ambiophonic microphone is equipped with four KE 14 multidirectional capsules at once, mounted in a single tetrahedral structure. This arrangement allows surround sound to be recorded from a single point, resulting in a distinctly spherical spatial sound that perfectly matches the visual image of a VR or spherical 360-degree video.

Through the VR Creators Program, many highly qualified professionals and established experts in the field of audio and VR technologies have been able to directly contribute to the development of the AMBEO® VR Mic project from the earliest stages of its implementation. Their experience and knowledge helped Sennheiser to create a whole range of unique solutions, including, in addition to a large set of carefully thought-out accessories that greatly simplify workflows, also proprietary AB-signal encoding software, which can be used as a regular plug-in during further post-processing. original audio material.

The multi-channel surround sound recording technology implemented in AMBEO® VR Mic allows you to capture all the sound coming from different directions simultaneously and at one point in space. During playback, such sound, due to the ability of human hearing to binaural localization of sounds, is perceived by the listener as spatial, the source of which, moreover, can be virtually reoriented at any time in any direction, both in vertical and horizontal planes. Ambiophony is also supported by most modern post-processing and playback systems, and thus is the most effective sound recording tool for virtual reality and other software products that involve working with three-dimensional sound and interactive sound control, a tool for creating new, yet unexplored audio worlds.

From Sennheiser, which has been developing first-class professional microphones with high-quality capsules for more than 70 years and has gained universal recognition and trust as a serious and progressive manufacturer, you can only expect reliable and proven products of true German quality. And rest assured, we provide comprehensive customer support and a 2-year warranty on every Sennheiser product.
