Game-Changing Audio Solution
A nearly 30-year veteran in the sports audio arena has discovered a game-changing solution that's transforming the way live sports are broadcast. Steve Koubridis, a renowned expert in high-performance products, has found the perfect tool to capture on-field audio with precision and accuracy.
The Klover MiK parabolic microphone dish is designed to collect sound energy from a large area onto a small microphone, while reducing noise from the arena. This patented design employs the physics of a parabolic curve to achieve unparalleled sound quality.
Sound for Broadcast Evolves
The integration of Klover into professional sports is due in part to the changing landscape of sound for broadcast, which is moving towards an immersive experience. The placement of the microphone in the set position eliminates guesswork, allowing audio engineers to pinpoint exactly what the TV audience wants to hear.
Available in 26-, 16- and nine-inch diameters, the Klover MiK can be outfitted with various professional, high-quality microphone capsules, such as DPA Microphones and Sennheiser. The size and type of microphone selected vary based on application, from football and soccer to baseball and hockey.
Benefits for Operators
The equipment has its benefits for the operators as well. Assembled and disassembled with ease using pull-and-release fasteners, the dishes are designed to withstand harsh conditions. The plexiglass is lightweight and natural-feeling, eliminating rattling noise.
Koubridis praises the Klover team's commitment to customer support, citing direct communication with President Paul Terpstra as a major advantage.
