Sennheiser Expands AMBEO Immersive Audio Project with New Investments and Technology Acquisitions

Sennheiser is strengthening its position in immersive audio solutions with an investment in German company Dear Reality, experts in spatial audio algorithms and audio VR/AR software, and the acquisition of technologies from Sonic Emotion, a Swiss developer of award-winning 3D audio software and processing solutions. Both companies have developed unique expertise and tools for the creation and rendering of immersive audio in object-based and scene-based formats.

French speaker manufacturer Amadeus installed a 3D Sound system within Paris’ Chaillot National Theater, one of the most historical and prestigious performing arts venue in the French capital. Along with Solid State Logic (SSL), Lab.gruppen and Sonic Emotion, the four companies joined forces to design a one-of-a-kind electro-acoustic sound reinforcement system for the theater, beyond the limits of traditional technologies.
