 Thanks to Sennheiser and Kingston for powering our NAB coverage this year. Check them out at the links in the video description. To kick off our coverage at NAB 2016, we went to visit our friends at the Sennheiser booth to see some of their new product launches. First up we have Sennheiser's new MKE 440 on-camera microphone. This mic will be a welcome step forward for anyone who has previously used the MKE 400 on-camera microphone. The slightly odd V-shape of the microphone is due to the dual shotgun mics that Sennheiser has placed in the MKE 440. The result of this is a mic designed to capture everything within your camera's view, while also rejecting sound outside the camera's frame, giving a very focused all-around recording. The dual mics in the 440 are shock-mounted internally within the microphone's micro-mesh enclosure, making the unit easier to maintain and use. There's also a dead-cat cover for extremely windy situations when needed. Power-wise, the MKE 440 makes use of two AAA batteries, making it fairly easy to never have a problem powering it. Here's a short test clip of how the mic sounded on the noisy show floor. So we're here at Sennheiser booth testing the MKE 440. This is what it sounds like when I'm directly in front of the camera, about three feet away. This is what it sounds like slightly off-axis to my left. And this is what it sounds like slightly off-axis to my right. What do you guys think of how it sounds? Let me know in the comments down below. Next up, Sennheiser was showing off their two new additions to their partner products with Apogee Electronics. They have their new Hand Mic Digital and MK4 Digital made for use with USB audio devices as well as iOS products. The Hand Mic Digital is great for high ambient noise situations, giving very strong clarity to vocals, a good solution for journalists that need good audio on location. With the MK4 Digital using Sennheiser's excellent MK4 voiceover mic that will give live streamers a great option for broadcast quality sound using their new USB connection available to the digital version. Sennheiser also had their demo of the 3D Ambio Mic, which is geared towards 360 video and VR applications. This was my first time trying the Ambio demo and I was honestly really impressed. I was greeted by a demo of a girl playing piano in the middle of a church. And as I turned my head throughout the space, I was surprised how accurately you could feel the sound of the piano change. VR and 360 video rigs are popping up quite frequently now and all of them are in need of an audio solution like the Ambio. Sennheiser also mentioned that they are working on ways of mounting the Ambio directly into the camera's mounting point in order to make sure that the mic does not obstruct the camera's shots in any way. Thanks again to Sennheiser for sending us to NAB this year. Make sure to check out all of their new stuff for NAB in the link in the video description.
