CARS V8 - FULLY RIGGED - The Supercharged Edition
The FULLY RIGGED edition contains more channels, more manoeuvres, more GB. Perfect, if you need to fine-tune the sonic driving experience or if you have some elaborate scenes, as you can never have enough source recordings. We captured every angle, every action, direction, level, nook and cranny the four-wheeled spitfires would surrender – which amounts to a staggering 112,6GB of sound material in the FULLY RIGGED edition.
18 MIC CHANNELS
The on-board recordings come with the 18 microphone channels we recorded for each car.
INCLUDING 4-CHANNEL AMBISONIC VR
We recored the interior of each car with a 4-channel Sennheiser Ambeo® setup, perfect for VR applications.
MORE ONBOARD FILES
The FULLY RIGGED edition contains an extra on-board driving session with more manoeuvres such as steady-driving, gearshifts, ramps.
MORE EXTERIOR FILES
With the FULLY RIGGED edition you get almost four times the amount of exterior recordings. More drive-bys, passes, and cornering – all from different microphones and perspectives.
