Course details
If you’ve been to a movie theater recently or listened to music from streaming services like Apple Music, you might have heard about Dolby Atmos, the sound technology that allows you to create and experience 3D/spatial audio. With Logic Pro X, you can create and deliver Dolby Atmos mixes, and you don’t need a roomful of expensive speakers. In the Logic Pro X environment, you can mix with regular headphones, and the Dolby Atmos mix will work with whatever headphones or speakers the listener is using. In this course, Scott Hirsch shows how to configure, record, mix, and produce spatial, 3D audio with Dolby Atmos in Logic Pro X. Scott covers the hardware requirements for working with special audio, how to position tracks in 3D space, and how to mix and master your spatial audio tracks for sharing and performance. Spacial audio is not just for blockbuster movies or platinum-selling recording artists, so join Scott as he shows you how to create and share your own spacial audio tracks.
