Holophone H4 SuperMINI Overview
- 1Description
The H4 SuperMINI 5.1 Surround Sound Microphone from Holophone is a camera-mountable microphone designed to achieve professional 5.1 surround audio capturing and monitoring. It offers an integrated multichannel preamplifier, virtual surround headphone monitor and matrix surround encoder in a compact package; mountable on any professional-quality video camera.
The microphone capsule features six elements that are can send signal to a matrix encoded, stereo analog output. Six line-level outputs (L, R, C, LFE, LS, RS) provide a pre-encoded alternative for isolating surround signal to discrete tracks on multitrack recorders, external surround processors, mixers, etc. Virtual Surround Monitoring provides a virtual 3-D representation of surround encoded audio signal on standard stereo headphones.
A center-channel input connection may be used for connecting a mono microphone, such as a shotgun or lavalier microphone, to enhance sonic opportunity options. The Holophone H4 SuperMINI is a powerful tool that brings surround sound recording, encoding, and monitoring capabilities into the hands of video camera operators.
