Blackmagic Ambisonic

The world's first 7th order ambisonic microphone: 108 MEMS capsules and a built-in spatial encoder, all over a single USB-C cable.

Record the whole sound field

A traditional microphone listens in one direction. Blackmagic Ambisonic Microphone records the sound arriving from every direction around the recording position. In post production you then choose where to "point" the listening, follow a moving subject, or create an immersive or binaural mix for headphones, all from a single recording.

7th order, 108 capsulesMost ambisonic microphones are first order, with four capsules. With 108 MEMS capsules the spatial resolution is far higher: sources can be told apart and placed precisely.

Built-in encoderSpatial encoding happens inside the microphone, and the whole signal reaches the computer over a single USB-C cable.

Fairlight and DaVinci ResolveThe workflow is designed for Fairlight and DaVinci Resolve Studio: recording, editing, mixing and mastering of spatial audio.

Blackmagic Ambisonic Recorder

The Blackmagic Ambisonic Recorder app shows a real-time map of the sound power around the microphone, the levels and the recording settings, and lets you play back recordings while steering the listening direction.
