In this video I'll be showing, in overview, the design of my super-low-noise self-contained ORTF microphone rig. It features superb stereo, a built in recorder, triple shock mounting, and of course a noise floor that is so low that you can record the beat of ones own heartbeat in a quiet enough environment. Impressive to say the least!!!

In this video I'll be showing you how I made a portable studio microphone that has an extremely low self noise and a wonderful stereo soundscape. The quality of this thing is insane!
