The black I2 Instrument Microphone, Standard Gain, with TA5F Connector for Audio Technica ATW-T101 Wireless Transmitters from Countryman is a mic that has been engineered from the ground up for natural on- and off-axis frequency response, low-noise, and precise polar patterns with deep nulls. This tiny instrument microphone can be used to capture audio in sound reinforcement applications for saxophone, violin, viola, cello, double bass, acoustic guitars, piano, brass, and percussion instruments.

The I2 instrument microphone is suitable for distance miking that is invisible in front of audiences and on camera. This version offers a standard gain and is suitable for close miking and loud instruments like horns. It is supplied with a foam windscreen, a basic clip, and a carrying case. In addition, the 5' cable is permanently attached to the mic and terminates to a TA5F connector for direct connection to Audio Technica ATW-T101 wireless bodypack transmitters.

Figure-8 Polar Pattern    For Instruments and Sound Reinforcement    Natural On-/Off-Axis Frequency Response    For Uncolored Recordings    Reduced Feedback Issues

The I2 maintains excellent pattern control and frequency response at all angles. It offers uncolored recordings and reduced feedback issues.

Flexible close miking techniques can be aided by the various selection of instrument mounts (sold separately), which position securely and gently to strings, brass, and more.

Small size and sonic precision makes this microphone suitable for X-Y, M-S, and other techniques that rely on accurate, coincident positioning, and consistent patterns.

A microphone with a figure-8 (bidirectional) pickup pattern is sensitive to sound coming from the front and coming from the rear, but has a very high rejection for sound coming from the sides. Great for mid/side and Blumlein stereo applications.

Q: 7. What’s the workflow like to convert to Dolby Atmos?

A: It’s a 1st order ambisonic recording. It’s common to decode the recording into 5.1 or 7.1 easily with many software options. I use Harpex. You can get creative and expand it to more than 7 channels. I like to get 11.1 out of content if it is appropriate, but you’ll need to be creative and experimental with the tools. Once you have the channels you want then just put into your normal mix workflow. There’s no such thing as “converting to atoms” You either have atmos software and a session to mix it for, or... you don’t. Hope that helps.
