Capturing
The narrative voice is the essence of every podcast which is usually captured through a large-diaphragm condenser microphone. But think about how you could augment this standard podcast experience by working with additional audio elements, like ambient sound, atmospheres and even interviews. Using spatial audio microphones for this purpose can be a great benefit.
The spherical sound image recorded with the AMBEO VR Mic includes all audio elements of the scene. This can bring the audience closer to the acoustic scene giving awareness of the space you are in. Sennheiser has partnered with field recorder manufacturers for an easy, seamless workflow to record these additional elements.
If you don’t have the AMBEO VR Mic at hand, you can still enhance your podcast by recording additional elements in mono or stereo and then use the state-of-the-art spatializer dearVR PRO, or the free binaural panner dearVR MICRO in the mixing process.
