Hi,

Am getting some enquires about this 360/3D audio. (to accompany 3D video headset viewer)

Hey. Obviously a big subject. A lot of the VR encoding takes place within the programming engine, such as Unity ir Unreal. A lot of other companies, like Google, Yamaha, etc. are feverishly working on solutions. Ambisonics is going to become a more common format (about time) as foley recording in anechoic chambers. Heaps of info in AED. Lastly, check out twobigears.com.

A couple more things:

Follow the game audio forums. These are the chaps at the forefront of this.

I am jumping on this as well. Share any info you find!

Hi People .

So we have got Ambipan running & Ambihead too.
We have succesfully printed an ambix / ambisonic mix to a quad track.
The people we're delivering to are using Premier & it seems the names of our individual tracks/channels in the file aren't of the correct naming protocol .
They are wanting the tracks/channels to be named 0,1,2,3
Does anyone have any advice on this . ?

I was wondering if the new Waves NX would you useful for this kind of thing.
