Binaural reproduction is incredible for so many reasons. If you desire to authentically reproduce every single nuance that could be possibly heard within the room then this technique is ideal. It provides you with the exact spatial positioning of any instrument within its environment. You'll find that when played back on headphones, you'll be transported back to the magic of that initial performance.
This is a new way to interpret sound which cannot be achieved by a simple stereo pair of microphones. It is also perfect for creating audiobooks, audio tours, podcasts and in-flight entertainment.
The KU 100 consists of two omni condenser microphones built inside artificial ears. These are positioned onto the side of a realistic enclosure that closely resembles the shape of the human head. Recording is as simple as positioning the head in the location you wish to capture sound from, engaging phantom power and pressing record, the KU 100 will take care of the rest. Unlike other binaural microphones, this dummy head is also compatible with most loudspeaker set-ups. It serves to provide you with an unparalleled sense of depth.
