Manakin Skywalker 4,854 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Is it actually in legitimate surround sound, like if you were to import it into say Audacity would it contain 8 audio channels? Or is it some pseudo matrixing thing that just gives it the illusion of sounding spatial? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SUH 63 Posted August 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2021 I’m fairly certain each Spatial Audio track has been specifically mixed for Dolby Atmos. There is only a handful of tracks and albums available that is slowly increasing. If they were using an automated spatial algorithm I would expect a larger selection. Also, you can hear the individual tracks/stems being placed in the 3D space, especially for songs. With orchestral recordings the effect is more subtle as you don’t have instruments spread across the entire sound stage, and they aren’t moving around. To my ears they seem to be replicating a concert hall setup, so it sounds like the orchestra is just in front of the TV. The effect is not that different from listening in stereo which already spreads the instruments from left to right, but instead of it being left to right around you (when listening through stereo headphones), it is left to right in front of you. I think they are placing the reverb mics at the back of the Atmos stage so you can occasionally hear the reflections behind you. The highlight track for me was ‘Anthem of Evil’ - the choir sounded great in Atmos although it’s hard to pinpoint exactly why. It sounds like they placed the choir in the same space as the orchestra, rather than placing them above the orchestra as you may have at a concert hall. There are now a couple of tracks from Hans Zimmer’s Dune in Dolby Atmos which I’ll be sure to check out. I’m hoping these types of score get the more exciting spatial mixes you get with the pop/rock songs. I’d highly recommend anyone with a Dolby Atmos setup to check out songs in Spatial Audio. The Bohemian Rhapsody mix sounds phenomenal. Chewy, crumbs, Cerebral Cortex and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HunterTech 972 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 How do the GDrive embeds work? Always wanted to make more posts with tidbits I find, but I don't know how to do that without just uploading to SoundCloud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,045 Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 Soundcloud is perfectly fine to use too! And, it's actually even easier to embed than Google Drive, because you just paste in the URL into the post here and the board automatically turns it into an embed for you. For google drive, you have to find some option buried somewhere where it gives you the embed code, then you have to go into HTML mode in the post editor here to put it in there I believe google Drive is more popular only because things don't get taken down for copyright complaints, like can happen on youtube or soundcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterTech 972 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Right. I only prefer GDrive now since so many of my devices are already logged in with my Google accounts, while SC I've largely stopped using in recent times. That, and I trust the quality doesn't downgrade to 128k going that route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,045 Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 I think both soundcloud and google drive stream a compressed version to someone just hitting plan on embed, but have a download feature when you can download the original quality (though that downoad option can be turned off by the uploader) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
