Schoeps ORTF Surround Outdoor Set

The “ORTF Surround” recording method is a new system for the pickup of surround ambience. This microphone arrangement and its sonic characteristics are quite similar to those of the well-known “IRT Cross“ designed by Günther Theile. Both the 360° imaging and the spatial impression are of optimal quality. This is achieved with a high degree of signal separation among channels, based both on arrival-time differences and level differences.

Application

The ORTF Surround arrangement has been designed to be mounted conveniently in a single elastic suspension and to share a single windscreen.

It differs from the IRT Cross arrangement in being rectangular rather than square. Its pickup regions are correctly apportioned through careful choice of the angles and distances among the microphones.

The WSC ORTF Surround is part of the ORTF Surround Set. This is a “plug and play” solution for surround ambience. It comprises:

  • four CCM 41 L compact microphones
  • a four-way “ORTF Surround Bar“ (ORTF Surround Bar LM, Lemo / Multi-Pin) terminated with a Binder multi-pin connector
  • an elastic suspension (Rycote Invision INV-7)
  • a windscreen WSC ORTF Surround
  • a fur (fur-like covering) for additional wind protection
  • a 20-meter, four-way Binder multi-core cable K Surround 20 M
  • a Splitterbox M/6U (Multipin / 6 × XLR-3M) or a splitter cable AK Surround M/4U (with heating: AK Surround M/4UH)

When working indoors, the ORTF Surround setup can be used without the windscreen. If only a moderate degree of wind protection should be required, instead of the basket-type windscreen of the set, a SCHOEPS B 5 D foam windscreen can be placed over each microphone separately.
