Interesting alright, although yeah with 64 mics I'd be a little worried about the high frequency reconstruction and noise alright. I'm not surprised it outputs Ambisonics though, as that really is pretty standard now in the 360 video domain and most realise that 3rd order will be the standard soon (ish!).
I have heard from a few different people who are shooting lots of 360 video/audio professionally that although having the mics built into the camera sounds like a great idea, there are actually often lots of good reasons to do it with a dedicated mic, especially for pro work. Btw I meet the people behind this mic (http://www.zylia.co) at AES last weekend and they inform me a software update is coming which will allow for up to 3rd order Ambisonics. The original idea of the mic was not really aimed at Ambisonics, but a 3rd order mic for about €1000 is definitely interesting. I believe it has 19 capsules. enda -- Dr. Enda Bates Teaching / Research Fellow Music & Media Technologies / School of Engineering Stack B, Custom House Quay, I.F.S.C., Dublin 1, Ireland, D01 V1F3. +353 1 896 1434 bate...@tcd.ie www.endabates.net <http://www.endabates.net>www.tcd.ie -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
