    What if... you could record your whole band or entire 3D sound scene at once, anywhere...
    with just one single microphone and then mix your songs afterwards
    - with the flexibility of a multi-track recording setup!

    Directional Mics?

    Now if they could mount it on to an intelligently positioned drone...............nah, but it looks interesting, thanks @Magic Mango :wink:

    Cool story. A demo of that thing splitting all the instruments & vox onto individual tracks, with no crosstalk/bleeding might be nice too, but hey...

    A bunch of things:
    1. Zilia is sitting smack in the middle of the band, on tits-high stand. Name one situation where a venue would allow such a thing (vs. tapping into the house board).
    2. The mix is already acceptable; the vocalist has a mike, everything still bleeding into everything, even without drums (recording in, say, a practice space involves drums -- an annoyingly loud instrument that bleeds into everything -- that's why studios have drum rooms/isolation partitions etc.)
    3. Either bass & guitar already have flanger/phaser on them, or mike/associated math wizardry is making them sound as if they do.
    Musicians/studio techs are very particular, will talk your ear off about opting for a vintage 4-5 figure ribbon over a large diaphragm condenser.
    This has 19 elements, which (if I understand what they're doing) rely on destructive phase interference, sorta like a phase array radar, but backwards?

    Dunno, wish them all the luck, just doesn't seem very practical.
