“But wait!” you might ask, “what do you mean by Spatial Audio? Are you talking about Immersive Audio, 3D Sound, Surround Sound, Binaural, Auro-3D, Dolby Atmos, 360-sound…?” Well, yes, sort of. Notice how the Panorama processed sound is more “open”.Written by Milou Derksen ( Edits: Dennis Beentjes, Robin Reumers) Let’s dive into the world of Spatial Audio! The following demonstration uses Panorama as a spatial music mixer. A conventional stereo mix of the same scene is provided for comparison. A machine gun is heard on the left, bullets fly by to the right and ricochet, then a shell falls from top right to left resulting in an explosion to the front left. The following is a simple battlefield scene. The following example has the helicopter flying all around in different directions, demonstrating the Doppler and distance effects: In this mode, Panorama can make sounds appear to come from outside the normal stereo soundstage.ĭemos labeled “headphones” should be listened to over headphones demos labels “speakers” should be listened to over stereo loudspeakers.Ī helicopter circling around the head is a classic 3-D sound example, reproduced here using Panorama: Panorama also includes a crosstalk canceller to format the output for playback over conventional stereo loudspeakers. Anyone producing podcasts or music specifically intended for mobile devices should definitely check out Panorama. Panorama sounds amazing when heard on headphones. Panorama combines HRTF-based audio panning with acoustic environment modeling, including wall reflections, reverberation, distance modeling, and the Doppler pitch effect. The DSP technology in Panorama reproduces psychoacoustic sound localization and distance cues, allowing you to pan sounds in three dimensions: not just left and right, but up, down, front, back, near, and far. Panorama is a specialized tool for creating stunningly realistic 3-D audio scenes using regular stereo sound.
