The DPA S5 Surround Microphone Mount accommodates up to five cardioid microphones and two omnidirectional microphones as outriggers for blending in between front and rear channels. This method was originated by NHK's Akira Fukada and is a proven method for capturing surround audio in performances, film, sound stages, etc.
The microphones may be spaced up to 2 to 7' (60.96 to 213.36cm) between each other and the center disc features a cable-through hole and inscriptions for correct pole alignment. The kit includes all necessary poles, extensions and accessories, and all may be neatly packed and transported in the included road case. The S5 Surround Microphone Mount is ideal in orchestra capturing, ambiance recording, sound reinforcement, location recording and more.
