Need help choosing?
Choose the NT-SF1 when you need post-production control over a full 360-degree soundfield. A conventional stereo pair is simpler when immersive or head-tracked delivery is not required.
The RØDE NT-SF1 is a four-capsule first-order ambisonic microphone for 360-degree audio, virtual reality, immersive music and spatial sound. Four matched TF-45C cardioid capsules capture precise A-format audio from a single point.
Use the free SoundField by RØDE plug-in to convert and manipulate the recording in B-format, including post-production control of direction, polar pattern and output format.
