Amadeus Holophonix Expands Options for Spatial Audio Productions

Available as an hardware processor and now as a native macOS app, the Holophonix spatial sound processor from French audio equipment manufacturer Amadeus, has been evolving since its original introduction and is now proven in multiple high profile productions. Unveiled originally in 2018 at the Frankfurt Prolight+Sound trade show, and commercially available since January 1, 2019, the Holophonix spatial sound processor received many new features and improvements, according to requests and needs expressed by its users.

Accurate head tracking helps deliver a true-to-life user experience (UX), and understanding which factors are key in evaluating a solution will help you navigate this growing industry.
