I had problems with those Rode mics -- I had two of them stop working
properly after several months.  You would hear a noise every so often
particularly when things were quiet.

Rode has the IXY mic. It goes into the lightning port. Zoom also made 1 
but the thing with that 1 is that it only allows you to record DVD 
quality. You can only go up to 48 KHZ 16 bits with it. The Rode 1 though 
not adjustable to 120 degrees like the Zoom does let you go to ful 96 
KHZ 24 bits Blu-Ray disk quality.

HI,
The really good thing about this mic is the super cool settings in the 
accompanying app. All kinds of nice eqs and other sound optimization settings.
Infact you can try the Motif app without even having the microphone.

Hi!
Ok, that’s the one i was thinking of.
I am not really fond of recording with a pair of bluetooth mics that might 
loose the connecthin in the middle of the recording.
Also bluetooth is wireles and compressed which isn’t something i like.
But maybe they are recording with lossless streaming so i wont say i buy them 
in the future.

Re: [all-audio] Microphone suggestion?

2020-04-15 Thread Georgina Joyce
Hello,

I found this post very interesting but could not find the recommended set. 
Google and Amazon came up with Sennheiser products like this one for £79.

Sennheiser is shaping the Future of Audio – a vision built on a 70-year history 
of innovation and a continued drive for excellence that is woven into our 
company’s DNA and culture. Around the world, our employees share this passion 
in the pursuit of the perfect sound, creating products that exceed expectations 
and set new benchmarks in audio.

Sennheiser Ambeo Smart Headset
Looking at the Ambeo Smart Headset, you see the world’s first intuitive, mobile 
recording headset for immersive 3D sound. It is fitted with microphones that 
capture sound just like your ears do. Thus, this unique headset produces 
fascinating spatial recordings. For sound experiences that make you feel as if 
you are there and listening live, which can be enjoyed with any pair of 
headphones connected to stereo equipment. This makes the Ambeo Smart Headset 
ideal for vloggers and other creators, who want to dazzle their audience with 
audio just as immersive as their pictures. The Sennheiser Ambeo Smart Headset – 
which is also a full-fledged headset, delivering high-quality Sennheiser sound 
– is for use with iOS devices only.

Did you know? The Ambeo trademark represents an increasing number of Sennheiser 
audio products and technologies for the entire audio signal chain – from 
capture to mixing and processing to reproduction – that turn sound into a truly 
immersive experience.
 Unique 3D recording capabilities

 Immersive audio on every headphone

 Seamless iOS integration

Unique 3D recording capabilities
For the first time ever, as an owner of an iOS device you can create videos 
with a high-quality binaural audio track just by wearing a headset. Binaural 
means, the two omnidirectional microphones located in the earpieces of the 
Ambeo Smart Headset pick up the sound just like your ears do. The Smart Slider 
allows microphone sensitivity adjustment to optimise recording performance in 
loud environments like concerts.

Immersive audio on every headphone
Thanks to its binaural microphone setup, audio tracks made with the Ambeo Smart 
Headset virtually put the listener in the place where the sound was recorded – 
be it a noisy street corner, a ride through a stunning countryside, a road 
trip, a concert event, and more. These authentic spatial sound experiences can 
be enjoyed at playback with any headphones on any stereo-capable device.

Seamless iOS integration
Featuring Apogee’s proprietary Soft Limit and mic preamp plus precisely tuned 
A/D and D/A conversion, as well as a Lightning connector, the MFi-certified 
Ambeo Smart Headset integrates seamlessly with Apple iOS devices.

Just plug and create. An Android version will be available at a later date.

 Situational Awareness

 A full-fledged, easy-to-use headset

 Dedicated app for additional functions

Situational Awareness
The earpieces of the Ambeo Smart Headset possess a unique feature: Situational 
Awareness. It offers two functions, which can be controlled using the rocker 
switch.You can either activate the Transparent Hearing function to fade the 
outside noise into your personal programme, which lets you stay safe when you 
are on the street. Or you can deploy the active noise cancellation, blocking 
out your acoustic environment to enjoy your music undisturbed. Situational 
Awareness also works when you are recording or making a call and can, of 
course, also be turned off.

A full-fledged, easy-to-use headset
Beside its unique 3D audio capabilities, the Ambeo Smart Headset is also a 
high-quality headset, offering intuitive handling and great Sennheiser sound. A 
special ear-hook design combines low structure-borne noise and ultimate wearing 
comfort with an extremely stable in-ear fit. The headset’s lightweight in-line 
remote with an additional built-in microphone optimised for speech makes taking 
calls and voice-controlling your iOS device a breeze.

Dedicated app for additional functions
With a special dedicated app the smart slider of the Ambeo Smart Headset can be 
programmed with various functions (default function is mic sensitivity 
control), adapting it to your individual requirements.

Is this the product you were recommending?
