Outstanding audio quality

The latest digital audio technology delivers stunning audio performance.

Digital signal processing for quality audio

The ECM-M1 features a complete digital pathway, from beamforming control, to noise filtering and interfacing with the camera0. The result is the clearest sound possible, for everything you capture.

Digital noise cut filter for clear sound

Continuous background noise is effectively suppressed by a digital noise-cut filter for clear sound recording. A low-cut filter is also provided to reduce wind noise, the hum of air conditioning and other low-frequency vibration noise. Suppressing noise at the recording stage reduces workload during post processing, enhancing overall efficiency.

Digital audio interface

The digital audio interface offers an all-digital signal path from microphone to camera0, avoiding the noise and distortion associated with analogue transmission, and retaining the full benefit of the digital signal processing in the microphone.
