Ambient Microphones

Soundfield Microphones
Soundfield Microphones

Soundfield microphones are the most unique in the world. Developed to be the most versatile stereo mic you can buy, the technology is now more commonly used for surround sound support for HDTV, DVD or other surround sound formats. By using Four capsules arrayed in a tetrahedron, and four separate outputs (referred to as "B-Format") you are able to have many mics in one!

 

 

Four capsules arrayed in a tetrahedron
A
)
a studio grade mono condenser microphone that can be an omni, cardioid, hypercardioid, figure eight or anything in-between,

B) a stereo condenser microphone with stereo omni, stereo cardioid, stereo hyper cardioid, stereo figure eight patterns,

C) a Mid/Side condenser, and

D) a Multi-Channel microphone (in B Format). In more advanced decoding of B Format, the SoundField Microphone can be a 5.1, 10.1, 16.1 or anything you like.

Furthermore, because of the B Format technology*, you are able to continuously control the image of your sound-width, focus, pattern, and direction, as you are recording or in post production. In addition, because of the tetrahedron design, you never run into phasing problems associated with the use of multiple microphones. It is therefore exceedingly quick and easy to set up and record your mono, stereo, or surround sound!

Why does Soundfield sound so good?

Soundfield ST350



The new portable ST350 offers SoundField’s unique technology in a miniaturised package which can be powered by either mains or battery.
Dispensing with the compromises associated with portable recording the ST350 system consists of a lightweight multi-capsule microphone and fully featured compact mic-pre/control unit that generates surround and stereo simultaneously at balanced line levels.
The ST350 has been designed from the ground up and is the result of a long R & D programme incorporating feedback from recordists, broadcasters and SoundField users. The new microphone electronics are capable of driving long cable runs enabling the microphone to be positioned hundreds of metres away from its control unit or alternatively hand held on a short boom.
Control features include high performance mic-pre’s with discretely switched 6dB gain steps and composite 5-segment LED bargraph for level monitoring. Continuously variable control is offered over the stereo Polar Patterns from omni through to cardioid to figure-of-eight and a Width control provides everything from mono to wide image stereo. End Fire and Invert controls are provided to correct for three-dimensional microphone positioning whilst still maintaining the correct stereo and surround perspective. Other features include Hi-Pass filtering to reduce rumble/wind noise, switchable M/S output and headphone monitoring.
The ST350 can be used in conjunction with the SoundField Surround Zone software to offer a complete recording and post-production package. Surround Zone is now available on the Digidesign Pro Tools, Steinberg Nuendo and SADiE platforms.
Sales Director, Ken Giles, comments, “We have taken on board the requests from the market for a more compact and portable SoundField system - the new ST350 is less than half the size and weight of the other microphones in our current range."
