While British researchers devised the basic principles behind ambisonic recording in the 1970s, until recently, the audio recording technique didn’t have much practical application, at least not to anyone not willing to spend thousands of dollars for the specialized microphones and processing technology. Ambisonic gear, which can lessen the directional distortion inherent in even the best stereo miking, now comes to a lower price point with the delivery of Core Sound’s TetraMic surround-sound microphone. Placing the single tetrahedral microphone in a sound field enables you to record four channels of audio and later, via software, “interpret” those channels into anything from mono through to 10.1 surround.
