The United Kingdom’s Sky Sports network, BSKYB, has chosen SoundField microphones for use in its 5.1 surround sound HD broadcast coverage of Premiership Football series, beginning in early 2006.
The SoundField SPS422B microphone was picked to capture crowd ambience, both for its clarity and its ability to easily collapse the 5.1 surround mix to stereo or mono with no phase issues or loss of clarity. SoundField systems will be installed at the arenas of Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal.
