Quad-microphone array for recording and video conferencing.
Solid State Logic’s CONNEX is a high-quality, portable USB microphone for conferencing, content creation and music recording. Featuring an advanced quad microphone array with four specially defined user modes, CONNEX enhances sound quality whether you’re in an office conference call, on your own in a coffee shop, or recording vocals and instruments wherever inspiration strikes.
CONNEX is a technology powerhouse, in a sleek portable formfactor. It’s high-quality, precision quad microphone array is powered by sophisticated studio quality sound processing. Four tailored user modes are available to make sure you sound the best in any scenario. For people pushing the boundaries of creation, advanced immersive mode is also available.
White: Solo Mode
Optimized for a single sound source from the front of the unit, e.g., conference/WHF calls or livestreaming with a single presenter. CONNEX is optimized for speech coming from the front while reducing unwanted sound from back and side faces. Struggling to make clear calls in a busy office, café or airport lounge, White: Solo mode is the answer.
Green: Group Mode
Designed for multiple sound sources e.g., round table conference call or live streaming with multiple presenters, CONNEX’s quad microphone array and automatic smart mixer means all presenters are clearly heard and unwanted background noise isn’t. Magenta: Vocal Mode
Vocal mode is for when inspiration hits and you just have to record that vocal performance. Designed for picking up a single sound source from the front of the unit, but with higher volume levels (eg: singing) than when in ‘White: Solo mode’, vocal mode will reject sound from the sides and rear of CONNEX making your vocal performance absolutely sing.
Blue: Music Mode
Designed for a group of musicians positioned around CONNEX, Blue: Music mode allows creativity as a group be captured in all its collaborative glory. CONNEX intelligently alters the sensitivity of the microphone array to reduce the noise floor and unwanted background sound in the recording or live stream. Combine this with CONNEX’s sophisticated studio quality processing and you’re on the way to a great sounding track.
Immersive
All four modes feature an advanced immersive recording setting. This allows you to access each of the four individual mic sources for the purpose of immersive and spatial recordings or broadcasts.
