Hi
I´m in the same situation, want to record nature (and other things) in 
ambisonics. and I have no experience - and waiting for the new Røde(Rode) NT- 
SF1 - I will be just below 1000 USD
Røde took over Soundfield and then bought some knowledge about Ambisonics 
equipment and this microphone would be the result ... In Denmark, for example, 
Sennheiser ambeo costs around 1900 usd
They announced the NT - SF1 almost 6 months ago - so..

[Sursound] Looking for mic advice

2018-08-10 Thread Drew Kirkland 
Hi guys

We have recently decided to record nature in ambisonic format with a
additional specific mono and stereo recordings added in at edit stage.

I would be interested in current ambisonic mic choice, we don't have loads
of cash but want to get as transparent a sound field as possible.

We have all had experience over the last 30 years or so of using standard
mics and have our favourites for particular situations but have never had
experience of usi g ambisonic mics and relevant field recorders.

Advice welcome

Drew

Re: [Sursound] Multi-channel Dante Mic Pre?

2018-08-10 Thread Len Moskowitz 

Thanks, Brian.

That Auvitran Toolbox looks like a very flexible platform.

With a single Sound Device 970 recorder (64 tracks), and either a DAD 
AX32 (or four RME Octamic XTCs feeding the Auvitran ADAT interface), it 
looks like recording 32 mic channels (or more) will be pretty 
straightforward.


For lower cost, we could replace the RMEs with MOTU 8Pre USBs.

To add a bit into this discussion, we have recently invested in the 
Auvitran audio toolbox platform, a modular interface which allows for 
the construction of a Dante interface with a variety of input/output 
modules. These include XLR mic preamps as well as ADAT I/O so that we 
can also use our existing hardware (RME octamic, etc.) over Dante.
