Opinion of experts

Uwe Bossert
Reamonn, Achtung Music

It is a great tool for music producers and songwriters! 

Joel Hamilton

The ZYLIA ZM-1 mic has the potential to change the way people record themselves. The technological aspects of this mic 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.

Robert Christie
Selected ZYLIA for ʻBest In Showʼ at Summer NAMM
 
You can make a circle around the microphone, and you can get a really good recording with just one microphone. Once youʼve got that recording, the software does its magic, and breaks it into individual tracks. This will give you a multi-track recording that sounds fantastic. One microphone, one cable and one computer. Itʼs really cool.
