Infineon And Zylia Enable World's First Portable Recording Studio

Infineon Technologies AG and Zylia have enabled the world's first portable recording studio with the integration of their MEMS and ZM-1 microphones.

The 19-capsule microphone array with high-end 24-bit recording resolution allows users to record entire sound scenes with just one microphone. Equipped with XENSIV™ silicon microphones, the microphone array delivers high-fidelity and far-field audio recording. In addition, it provides multiple-microphone noise- and distortion-free audio signals for advanced audio signal processing.

"We are committed to developing new technologies and transforming them into products capable of improving the lives of musicians and audio creatives," said Tomasz Żernicki, co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of Zylia. "Infineon is a partner we can trust to deliver the innovative, high-quality solutions that help power our development of such products."
Advanced digital sound-processing algorithms and microphone array technology make the Zylia ZM-1 a sophisticated recording solution in a lightweight enclosure. The XENSIV silicone microphones from Infineon feature with their low self-noise, wide dynamic range, low distortion, and a high acoustic overload point. In addition, the Zylia Studio dedicated application for the ZM-1 enables separation of instruments and vocal tracks from the overall recorded sound mixture."

"Our MEMS technology addresses the needs of the market and makes future use cases like Zylia's possible," added Oliver Henning, Head of Partnership Management of the Power Management & Multimarket Division at Infineon. "Infineon is very excited about partnering with Zylia in its mission to jointly enable millions of musicians around the world to achieve the next level of audio recordings."

As a third-order Ambisonics audio recorder, the ZM-1 is also suitably robust for 360-degree and virtual reality (VR) audio production. Zylia supports these workflows with its new Zylia Studio PRO and Zylia Ambisonics Converter software. They offer sound engineers and VR enthusiasts more control over the recording process and greater post-processing capabilities.
