ZYLIA Portable Recording Studio

“Without the industry’s traditional curators or gatekeepers, it’s a lot easier to record something yourself and — for better or for worse — make it available to audiences,” added Joel Hamilton.
“In this environment, the ZYLIA ZM-1 microphone has the potential to change the way people record themselves. The technological aspects of this microphone are a breakthrough, and it’s stunning that Zylia has been able to bring it to market at the price point it has. Anyone making music today should know about this mic.”

Creative work

First Aid Kit 'Fireworks' (360 degree audio) by Sony Music UK

To capture the 360 audio live recording on this video, the very latest audio recording hardware, Zylia was used. The microphone is the world’s first that allows you to record entire 'sound scenes' with only one device. The audio was also mixed to 5.1 Dolby Surround Sound. Please use headphones for the optimum audio experience. Shot and edited by 4th Floor Creative 'Fireworks' is taken from the album, 'Ruins'

Dear John, Timber bridge

Recorded with one ZYLIA mic during La Roche Bluegrass Festival 2019. Wear your headphones for incredible effects.

Unraveled - an immersive 360 audio

Unraveled by Yao Wang is an immersive 360 audio and visual experience where the listener finds themselves at the center of all elements, being surrounded by choir, strings, synths, and imagery. Where you turn your head, sound from that direction will be emphasized and filtered.
For the full immersive experience, please wear headphones. Audio was partially recorded with ZYLIA ZM-1 at Berklee College of Music.

The power of audio in 6 Degrees-of-Freedom (6dof)

Capturing high-quality high order Ambisonics (HOA) sound filed simultaneously in multiple points of the recorded scene. Recorded audio supports truly immersive experiences with freedom of movement through the 3D space.

3rd order Ambisonics recording of Troubadours

Probably, the first video web-player that supports 3rd order Ambisonics audio in the Universe.
Sound is an important component for feeling immersed in an experience. While watching a 360 video it's essential for the sound to come from the right direction and the Ambisonics player allows you to have this perception while in control of the scene rotation. One other aspect is that sound can be used as a guide for action in the 360 videos and vice-versa. Here you can also experience a nice feature - acoustic zoom. It allows you to get close to musicians and extract the sound of a particular instrument.

Use your headphones, watch in the Google Chrome browser, control with your mouse.

We would really like to thank Thomas Deppisch and Nils Meyer-Kahlen authors of HOAST360 player with support for 4th order ambisoncis (https://git.iem.at/thomasdeppisch/hoast360/blob/master/poster.png). Our solution is based on their work and will be released soon as an open- source project ready to use by any sound enthusiast.
