Wookiee Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Interesting video I watched about Dolby in general for music, basically they could not see the point, as 90% of consumers listen on low price ear buds not capable of the Dolby needs. Film very useful probably but not much for music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW if you're talking Dolby Atmos, it can render to binaural audio that works well on headphones and earbuds. Of course, it doesn't have the impact a full-blown surround system with a bunch of speakers. However, with so many people listening on headphones, Atmos mixes are a step up. There's a sense of fullness and space you don't get with stereo. Lately I'm posting both Atmos (headphones only) and Stereo (speakers or headphones) mixes on my YouTube channel, like how labels put out mono and stereo versions of the same record during the transition from mono to stereo. The Atmos version gets more clicks. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wookiee Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 @Craig Anderton I hear what you say, though this was the opinion of a respected (probably) music producer. For myself however having listened to several tunes mixed for Dolby Atmos and Digital on both a good quality 5.1.4 and 5.1 systems, mixed by engineers that should know what they are doing, for me the 5.1 was a better musical experience. On the 5.1.4 matched Dolby Atmos Focal system whoopee the FX flew round the room, but no better than on my 5.1 system, which is again quality speakers. If it grabs your bits do it but...... Film different story, but to get the best of it you need a multi speaker system, those using sound bars, well it keeps some happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't tell if you're being deliberately obtuse here or if you really think I believe that Cakewalk's entire history began in April of 2018. I (and I think the other person as well) was talking about Cakewalk by BandLab. I had a SONAR license in 2002.

One other option was that you have (at least) two accounts and for some reason you were using Mr No Name so you could post things you didn't want people to associate with Starship Krupa. I thought that would be too ridiculous (though not impossible), which was why I expressed surprised. I mean if I quote person X and ask directly "what did you mean when you said Y?" and you know I know the history, but person X presents himself as someone new to the community who doesn't read manuals, why would you answer a question as if you are someone else?

Based on the posts I have seen made under the name of Mr No Name, I had no reason to assume he didn't mean what he actually said. So I did the responsible thing and asked a direct question to get clarification. So I was quite surprised that you told me something that I have every reason to believe you know I knew. Your insinuation that I might have been "deliberately obtuse" is very problematic. As I stated, based on previous posts I have read from the Mr No Name account, I would have been wrong to assume that Mr No Name meant Quote it [Cakewalk] was designed purchased by Bandlab so they could use it as a free daw to attract people to the bandlab platform, So far as I have seen from his posts Mr No Name could very well have thought that Cakewalk was designed as a free DAW so Bandlab [the company] could attract people to Bandlab [the software / app / ecosystem]. Quote I can't tell if you're being deliberately obtuse here or if you really think I believe that Cakewalk's entire history began in April of 2018. This is an false dichotomy. In case it's not clear, I asked for clarification about what "Mr No Name" meant by what he said. It was clear that I was asking a direct question for the purpose of getting a clarification of what he meant. I don't understand at all how that was not clear to you from my post.

Just a silly misunderstanding, mate. You know I think yer a good dude and a credit to the forum (I hope you know, at least). Sorry for the confusion. I guess I should have said "I think what he means is...." BTW, I have no secondary accounts and believe that it's bad form to do so.
