The Forgotten Recorder Everyone Should Have (Zoom H3-VR)

Join us as we rediscover the Zoom H3VR, the “forgotten” recorder that might just be a must-have for sound enthusiasts! In this video, we take the H3VR to various locations around Hong Kong and Xiamen, capturing unique ambisonic recordings. You’ll get to experience these sounds in stereo, binaural stereo, and even 5.1 surround sound—perfect for anyone with a 5.1 system at home.
