Any Surface / Object Becomes a Canvas for Exploration

Description

Any Surface / Object Becomes a Canvas for Exploration

Contact microphones offer a unique perspective that traditional recording methods simply can't match. You can literally listen to materials, plants or objects from inside the material. As humans we are used to certain hearing perspective: sound waves normally travel through air before they hit the diaphragm of our ear or the microphone. Picking up vibrations directly from the object changes the hearing perspective and that's your best trick to record interesting and sometimes abstract sounds.
 
This model comes in a set with a durable neoprene zip-bag, ensuring safe transport while providing space for all included accessories. Thanks to its universal clamp mechanism and strong rubber bands, it can be mounted on almost any surface. Additionally, the newly developed probe mechanism — created in collaboration with sound designer Robert Dudzic — lets you capture sounds even from inside objects, soil, and more, expanding the creative possibilities even further.

Body Sound Transmission

Contact Mics work through body sound transmission. In comparison to airborne sound transmission (via a microphone or the diaphragm of our ear), all sounds can be listened to in a very intimate and direct way. Imagine it like listening to the materials from the inside, very directly and much in an ASMR way. This shift of the hearing perspective will be your best trick to create sounds, that will captivate your listeners or even better: yourself. Out there is a completely unheard realm of sound and this Contact Mics make it possible to participate and listen. There is a profound satisfaction and fascination in this listening process alone.
