Ara’s dual pickup pattern allows you to focus on the voice or instrument in front of you, or everyone in the room. Choosing a directional Front (unidirectional) pattern focuses on the sound in front of the microphone and prevents it from picking up from the other side. Ara can be used on the go with desktops, booms, stands, or with optional adapters and mobile devices. USB connectivity and class-compliant drivers ensure plug-and-play simplicity.

■ Professional grade high quality sound

Supports high sampling rate of 24-bit / 96kHz.

■ Two sound collection modes

By installing two microphone capsules, you can select a pickup pattern from FRONT and FRONT & BACK.

■ Easy setup and wide compatibility

Intuitive plug and play setup and operation is possible. In addition to PC, it is compatible with iOS and Android tablets and mobile phones.
