Roland announces the Wearpro Mic, a wearable device providing audio capture for GoPro's HERO3, HERO3+, and HERO4 video cameras.
Specially designed for the popular camera series, the WEARPRO Mic supports both binaural and standard stereo recording, and plugs directly into the HERO with no conversion cables needed. GoPro users can then record immersive first-person soundtracks, putting viewers right in the middle of the action.
The WEARPRO Mic’s convenient, wearable design was designed to enable binaural audio capture, a recording technique that accurately recreates the way we hear sounds in our environment. By capturing the source with microphones placed at each ear, listeners using stereo headphones or earphones can enjoy a realistic 3D audio experience, with sounds coming from all directions in a simulated 360-degree space.
To operate the WEARPRO Mic, the user simply has to wear the two ultra-small microphones like earphones, plug the cable into the mini-USB port on the HERO and begin shooting. The WEARPRO Mic is powered from the GoPro camera, eliminating the need for batteries and external power supplies. Thanks to the open-air structure of the earpieces, outside sounds are never blocked, providing safety while shooting in crowded environments.
Two included clip mounts make it easy to also use the WEARPRO Mic for everyday recordings like webcasts, interviews, and stereo music capture. Just snap on the clips and attach the mics anywhere, such as clothing, a music stand, or a selfie stick. Two windscreens are also included, along with four different rubber sleeve pairs to fit ear sizes from kids to adults.
The WEARPRO Mic works with the HERO3, HERO3+, and HERO4 cameras from GoPro. (Not compatible with the HERO4 Session camera.)
