Spatial Mic is a 2nd order ambisonic microphone that outputs eight channels of audio over USB and ADAT light pipe. One channel of audio for each capsule in the microphone. Depending on which application you are recording with you may only have the option of recording to mono or stereo tracks. For example, when recording Spatial Mic with an iPhone using MultiTrack DAW you will record four stereo tracks. You can use the stereo files in your DAW and route them to the Spatial Mic Converter plugin or you can optimize your workflow by combining these audio files into a single polyphonic WAV file.

If your 360° video requires immersive head-tracked audio, Spatial Mic is here to help. Spatial Mic records in 360 degrees, allowing the sound your viewer hears to change as they move and look around in a Virtual Reality or 360° video. Spatial Mic records & streams audio for live events, games, film, YouTube 360 and Facebook 360 with a compatible plugin host like Reaper, Pro Tools Ultimate or Nuendo. Plug Spatial Mic into your computer via USB or use the built-in ADAT connectivity with a compatible audio interface. Place Spatial Mic wherever you would normally use a Stereo X/Y, Blumlein or other multi-mic setup and then experiment from there.

Use the included Spatial Mic Converter Plugin to decode classic (Omni → Cardioid → Figure-8) and advanced (Basic, InPhase, MaxRe) higher order polar patterns. Aim these in any direction and hone on one specific sound in 360°. Capture immersive sound effects that can be decoded to 5.1, 7.1, ATMOS (requires 3rd pary tools) and more. Easily record on-the-go to a mobile device and build your library. 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. Leverage the simplified calibrated workflow of Spatial Mic so you can concentrate on the data.

Connect via USB to a compatible USB Audio 2.0 Host device or plug ADAT into an audio interface for multi-mic setup. Adjust analog front-end mic gain, headphone level, metering and more with the anodized aluminum knob. Remotely control these features and more with Spatial Mic Control app (OSX & Windows). Record 8 calibrated channels from the capsule array into a computer or mobile device. Monitor signal levels on the Spatial Mic LED display or in your DAW.

Transform the raw capsule output from the mic with the Spatial Mic Converter plugin (VST3 64-bit & AAX) in a DAW that supports multi-channel audio tracks like Reaper, Pro Tools Ultimate or Nuendo. Use the Spatial Mic Converter plugin to adjust aim, orientation, filter type and more. The output stage decodes to ambiX, FuMa or stereo virtual microphone patterns with higher-order options. Deliver recordings to stereo, 5.1, 7.1, Ambisonics or any format you desire (3rd party tools may be required). Upload to YouTube 360, Facebook 360, Oculus and more and experience immersive head-tracked spatial audio.
