Sennheiser AMBEO VR 3D Microphone

Capture 360° Sound with Precision – Built for the Future of Audio

Step into the world of immersive audio with the Sennheiser AMBEO VR Microphone, a revolutionary tool crafted for virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and 360° content creators. Developed in collaboration with VR content producers and mixing engineers, this ambisonic microphone delivers a fully spherical sound field - capturing everything, everywhere, all at once.

Whether you're producing cinematic VR, immersive journalism, or interactive gaming audio, the AMBEO VR Mic empowers your sound to be as lifelike as the visuals.

First-of-Its-Kind Ambisonic Design
The AMBEO VR Mic was one of the first professional-grade microphones to offer true Ambisonic capture in a compact, single-point format. With four matched KE 14 cardioid capsules arranged in a tetrahedral array, it captures immersive, full-sphere audio from a single location — simplifying complex spatial recording setups.

Advanced Spatial Audio Processing
At the heart of the AMBEO VR Mic’s innovation is its seamless integration with post-production environments. It includes the AMBEO A-to-B format converter plugin, co-developed with leading audio developers, enabling creators to transform raw A-format recordings into standard B-format files for full 3D spatial audio manipulation in any professional DAW.

Pioneering VR & AR Audio Standards
The microphone helped shape early spatial audio workflows for VR and AR production. Its reliability and audio fidelity made it the go-to choice for immersive audio pioneers across film, gaming, virtual tours, and broadcast, earning its place as an industry standard in 360° sound capture.

Compact, Mobile, and Creator-Friendly
Unlike bulky multi-mic arrays, the AMBEO VR Mic is lightweight and portable — making it ideal for field recording and location-based VR projects. Its streamlined form factor gives creators the power of professional spatial audio in a microphone that’s easy to deploy and travel with.
