Dolby Atmos Listening Party

Dolby Atmos Listening Party

This free event will showcase our new 9.1.4 Dolby Atmos Immersive Audio system. "Immersive" means music surrounds you from all angles, including the sides and above. It's not just listening to music, it's experiencing it in a whole new way. It's like a journey into sound. Please join us.

Starsound Studios now offers the convenience of Dolby Atmos Studio, where we can mix your music in Atmos. Imagine your song surrounding you from all sides and above, a fresh way of presenting your material. With Spotify, Apple TV, and others now streaming in Atmos and most cell phones defaulting to Atmos, you can even listen directly from your phone with spatial audio headphones. We've made it easy for you to experience this cutting-edge technology, right at your fingertips.

Dolby Atmos, a format that has been a part of the film industry for many years, is yet to be fully embraced in the audio industry. It's a unique speaker format that surrounds the listener, identified by numbers like 7.1. The first number signifies the speakers around the listener, while the second denotes a subwoofer, adding depth to the audio experience. This exclusive technology is now available for you to experience at Starsound Studios.

Its unique numbering system sets Dolby Atmos apart from traditional surround sound. For example, a Dolby Atmos setup might include a third number, 7.1.4. This third number represents the height speakers, a key component of Dolby Atmos. To put it into perspective, Starsound Studios has a 9.1.4 Dolby Atmos system. The numbering system means they have nine speakers around the listening position, a subwoofer for the low end, and four height speakers, all working together to create a truly immersive audio experience. In simpler terms, the more numbers, the more speakers, and the more immersive the sound.

Why would you use the Waves Torque plugin? What LUFS standard goes with which social media platform, and why is that important? Shouldn't I use an MP-3? What is a reference track? What is a vocal comp, and why should I do it?

Event Planning

Planning and holding an event can be an exciting and rewarding experience. Successful events require careful planning and attention to detail, whether a small gathering or a large conference. The first step in holding an event is clearly defining the purpose and goals. The goals will help guide all other decisions, from the venue selection to the guest list.

Once the purpose is set, it's time to establish a budget and commence the search for a suitable venue. The chosen venue should be capable of accommodating the expected number of guests and should be in line with the event's theme and purpose. The next crucial step is to craft a well-structured timeline and checklist. This strategic move ensures that all necessary tasks are completed in a timely manner, keeping the event planning process on track.

The success of an event hinges on its promotion. Leveraging the power of social media, email marketing, and word-of-mouth can ignite excitement and draw in attendees. It's equally important to pay attention to logistical details such as parking, catering, and audio-visual equipment, as they contribute to the overall experience of the event.

On the day of the event, it's essential to have a team in place to handle any last-minute issues and ensure that everything runs smoothly. Finally, following up with attendees and seeking feedback can provide valuable insights for future events.

Holding an event can be a lot of work, but seeing everything come together and creating a memorable experience for attendees makes it all worthwhile.
