Dolby Atmos and 360 Reality Audio

[Abodi2002]

 

 

it's on Dolby Atmos... but it's a bit quieter

after the last “I’m still in love with you”? Maybe I can hear if using skullhandy headphones instead of AirPods. And next Dolby release needs to be self title! Though I could see Dion Chante Plamodon getting released next year.

Thank you. I did here it after listening more closely. Wasn't expecting it to be in that spot though.

Why do they only offer the DA or 360RA on streaming? I don’t subscribe to Apple Music etc. I purchase on iTunes and would purchase these remasters if they offered them.

it's their way to force people to buy subscription to their streaming...

but I always create new accounts to use the one month free trial

I’m just curious, do you know if there’s a way to record Dolby Atmos in a CD? Like, would it be possible in the future that they re-release her physical albums with the Dolby Atmos mix?

in a standard CD no... because regular discs only support stereo audio...

but Blu-Rays, even DVDs, does support spatial audio...

and there's the SACD discs (which we have 3 albums released from Celine already)...

 

but Dolby Atmos is a positional mixing, that can be anywhere in space (up, down, like a sphere of sound with you in the center), so the mix would have to be addapted to 5.1 (in the case of SACDs and DVDs)...

 

Blu-Rays already have the movies with audio in Dolby Atmos (and some with even Hi-Res Dolby Atmos)... so I believe this would be the most logic way of releasing...

I do that sometimes. I use Sound Forge or any other audio editing software to condense the 5 tracks to stereo and then burn it onto a CD (I have a very old car which only plays regular CDs)

 

There is an auto-equalizer feature which will automatically assign the volume to the 3D tracks and I have to admit sometimes it makes them sound way too loud which makes converting RA to stereo quite pointless. For example, Je sais pas background vocals totally drown out Celine’s voice

Good to know. Thanks so much you guys!

I listened to the DA version of ANDHC today, and was not at all impressed.

A new day has come is definitely one of the worst Dolby Atmos mixes. I wouldn’t say it’s that much worse than the original mix but it just doesn’t have much to offer. Curious though how are you listening to it if you don’t subscribe to streaming platforms? If you want a good Dolby Atmos mix, I would recommend falling into you, let’s talk about love, or the color of my love.

I caved and did a free 3 month subscription lol

the SACD version is SO MUCH BETTER...

Yeah like Maicon just said, the Super Audio CD version is way better than Dolby Atmos in the case of ANDHC, certain tracks sound nearly like new songs!

[tomi_hr]

All of you, on which audio system do you listen Dolby Atmos od SACD multichannel songs? Headphones or some 5.1.2 or more speakers audio system?

normal headphones, in windows 10 (with Dolby Access app enabled) and VLC with some configurations... this works...

but on some android smartphones there's support to dolby atmos too... with regular headphones

what are some examples of those? There’s only two or three songs I really noticed any major differences with. Love All The Way SSACD, would have only made sense for that two have been released in Dolby Atmos

‘Right in Front of You’ and ‘Rain, Tax (It’s Inevitable)’ are the first examples that come to my mind right now. However, I’d say basically 85% of the album sounds really different in the SACD.

When The Wrong Loves You Right, Sorry For Love... ANDHC (Radio Remix) there's an accoustic guittar that didn't existed in the normal mix...

sure, the ATW has far more differences, but ANDHC is amazing too...

But unfortunately, listening Dolby Atmos or multichannel over stereo systems like headphones or PC speakers is very very big difference how do you hear. Many Celine songs heavily use back surround speakers for back vocals, effects and instrumental music (That's what you hear in your headphones more prominently, background vocals, etc.).

 

This is my speaker setup:

Also from 360RA

 

Or one cut from I'm Alive from Dolby Atmos mix. This is what you hear in rear channels:

Celine and rest of music you can hear in front....So there is a big difference when listening over headphone or home cinema

awesome! Thanks for sharing! Can you make a instrumental of the full song and share with us?

This is full song, but only rear channels....In Celine surround music very often they mix Celine voice into front stereo channels. I don't know why they dont use center channel, because it's his purpose...Because of that it's pretty hard to seperate voice form rest of music.

Or they use center channel for guitar solo:

what Dolby Access app does, is to translate spatial mix to stereo headphones... so in fact I can hear everything that's on the mix, but translated to Left and Right only...

I know that's not that impressive when compared with a real surround system, but I can't affoard for that...

 

and Dolby Access is an official app from the Dolby Studios, so they're pretty perfect in emulating space...

 

I know I'm hearing everything cause when I open the tracks with Audacity, I can see each channel separated, and that's even more cool.. I can mute all the other channels and play each one by themselves, make some experiments... the release of Dolby Atmos mixes was the best thing that happened in Celine's carreer in my opinion...

I feel like so much of the production is removed though.

Rest of music/voice I hear in front L and R speaker, center speaker and two overhead speakers

Aha I’m listening on headphones. Maybe that’s why.

[MaxRayÎles]

I've been listening to Taking Chances and D'Elles on Apple Music with Dolby Atmos

 

The rock elements in TC really shine through and her voice gets echo like effect which is interesting.

 

can't fight the feeling, the power of love, save your soul, taking chances, parler a mon pere, and many more just sound amazing.

you may prefer using a headphone set. I'm using the BeatStudio3. not the best but I can definitely notice the nuances in the mixing

yes... headsets are far better than earpices/earphones...

 

I use a very basic headset, stereo only, but with Dolby Access on Windows, or simply on my smartphone, the sound is gorgeous
