Oh, was gonna post a comment about this, I actually bought just last week their USBc version (Fotric Sonic 3), on eBay, for around $700. Works quite well, it has 64 mic array, I think it would be tough to replicate it to this level.

Lmk if anyone has any questions about it! It’s android-only, but I’ve gotten an agent to write a Mac version of it though haven’t tested yet.

For an intermittent beep, could you point it at a room and then leave it recording video for an hour, then come back later and scrub through that video looking for the source of the noise?

Are you able to gather the multichannel recordings off the device? I’ve often wondered if you could do that, then replay a video while focusing on specific parts of the scene. Kind of like a virtual stethoscope.
