All existing Blu-Ray players will play back the 5.1 Auro-encoded stream as a normal 5.1 surround mix, but A/V Receivers which have the Auro-3D Decoder and speaker layout will detect the Auro-3D mix. The cinemas that don’t have the Auro-3D Decoder will hear the standard 5.1 PCM uncompressed audio.ĭue to the groundbreaking technology of Auro-3D, we don’t need any change in specs or new delivery formats. If a standard cinema server has our Auro-3D Decoder (just a software upgrade), it recognizes the metadata immediately and will automatically decode the signal into the original Auro-3D mix. So this ‘single file’ master carrying both formats is going into the professional and consumer market as a 24 bit PCM stream (uncompressed audio) which can be put on each standard Blu-Ray or DCP (Digital Cinema Package). Following our workflow, the Auro-3D mix and the 5.1 surround mix are both created at the same time without any compromises in the artistic intent of each format, and without any extra time needed than normally used for the 5.1 surround mix only. This 5.1 PCM carrier sounds the exact same as if the same mix would have been done on a top digital console. The Auro-3D cinematic mix uses an artist-controlled dynamic down-mix (so no matrixing) of all channels into a 5.1 PCM carrier using the Auro-3D encoder plugin, resulting in identical file sizes relative to a standard 5.1 PCM mix. Within the foreseeable future, Auro-3D will also be available on mobile platforms, delivering high resolution “Immersive Sound” by using just a single file, making Auro-3D the ultimate end-to-end solution to all marketsĪudioholics: Is Auro-3D info encoded into a 5.1 PCM mix? If so, how much does this increase size? (Atmos results in an increase of about 20% over True HD from what folks are saying). The tools for game developers to create games with Auro-3D’s immersive sound are available as of now. The first car that will have Auro-3D integrated will be available to purchase at the end of 2015. There are 3 Auro-3D branded sound processors and many A/V manufacturers will be launching Auro-3D integrated processors by the end of this year as well. A/V receivers and sound processors are ready and available for consumers to order.
I’m incredibly proud that we at Auro Technologies have done exactly that. We wanted to deliver true “Immersive Sound” to the consumer, to be the first, but also to be the best. Wilfried: When we decided to bring Auro-3D out of the cinema and into the home, we were determined to get it right.
Auro-3D is fully backwards compatible making integration simple and easy for content makers since no extra investment is needed for distribution.Īudioholics: When do you foresee Auro-3D making its way into consumer products?
