Other streaming services such as Amazon Music and Tidal also offer music in 3D.<\/p><p>By now, not only major-label artists but also more and more studios and engineers have upgraded their systems. A lot has happened in the field of DAW manufacturers and DIY distributors as well. As a result, the path to Dolby Atmos, binaural audio, Ambisonics, Sony 360 Reality Audio, Auro-3D and other immersive audio formats is now open to indie and DIY artists as well.<\/p><p>This article will give you an introduction to remix in immersive audio formats so that your stereo production can really shine in 3D. Let&#8217;s get started!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-74af3b5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"74af3b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Preparation is everything<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ed6c28 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1ed6c28\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As with any mix, it\u2019s the ingredients that determine the result \u2013 so we need good signals first! We generate these from the original stereo mix. Anyone who works with hip-hop, electronic, rock or pop music knows how essential the use of effects can be for the sound design of a song. But even when working with jazz or classical music, it makes sense to preserve as much as possible of the original sonic vision of the stereo production rather than completely reinventing the piece. It takes sensitivity \u2013 on the one hand, we want to make the best possible use of the immersive space, while on the other hand preserving the artistic intention as faithfully as possible.<\/p><p>That&#8217;s why we don\u2019t start with individual tracks, but with stems \u2013 grouped signals that include the original effects. What sounds great in stereo usually sounds great in 3D as well. 3D mixes generally require a few more stems than you might use for stem mastering \u2013 12\u201324 stereo signals is a good guideline for an average Dolby Atmos pop mix.<\/p><p>In practice, it has proven useful to keep all effects and additionally bounce reverbs and echoes as separate stereo stems. In the 3D mix, these spatial elements can then be moved toward the rear or overhead, duplicated or varied according to taste, saving you the trouble of recreating the original reverb space by ear in 3D. Another option is to continue working directly in the original DAW session and, for example, replace a stereo reverb with a 7.1.2 reverb.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cf6a8b9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"cf6a8b9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"215\" height=\"404\" src=\"https:\/\/hofa-college.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Stems-fuer-3D-Mix.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-41498\" alt=\"Screenshot eines Datei-Ordners, der 17 Stems f\u00fcr 3D-Remix und das Master enth\u00e4lt.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hofa-college.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Stems-fuer-3D-Mix.png 215w, https:\/\/hofa-college.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Stems-fuer-3D-Mix-160x300.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Possible stems for a 3D mix<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f59959a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f59959a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">De-mixing instead of upmixing\n<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f452aa1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f452aa1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A classic scenario: The hard drive containing the original session is gone, or the project simply no longer exists \u2013 all that remains is the finished stereo mixdown. So how can you still create a good 3D mix? We\u2019ll spare you the backup lecture at this point \ud83d\ude42<\/p><p>The obvious solution is to place an upmix plugin on the finished stereo mix and voil\u00e0: 3D sound. Temptingly simple \u2013 but not always a good idea. An upmix plugin can only analyze roughly where something is positioned within the stereo image and distribute the sound across additional speakers based on that estimate. It cannot distinguish what is actually playing \u2013 vocals, bass and drums remain one inseparable whole. The result is often a diffuse cloud of sound rather than a mix in which every element has its own clearly defined position in the room.<\/p><p>The better alternative is called de-mixing, also known as stem separation. The idea is this: Instead of simply spreading the stereo mix wider, you try to transform it back into its original components \u2013 for example, creating separate tracks for vocals, bass, drums and so on. In a way, you are &#8220;undoing&#8221; the mix.<\/p><p>The problem is that once several instruments have been mixed together, their frequencies overlap. Cleanly separating those overlaps again is extremely difficult, and this is exactly where artificial intelligence comes into play. Modern AI models have been trained on vast amounts of music and have learned to recognize typical sound patterns of vocals, drums, bass and other elements even when they overlap. The result is never perfect, but it is often surprisingly usable.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8055f4d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8055f4d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"681\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/hofa-college.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Extracted-Stems-im-Ordner.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-41508\" alt=\"Screenshot einer Ordnerstruktur.

ideas you may encounter when taking your first steps into the world of immersive mixing. Since Dolby Atmos is currently the format with the greatest demand in music production, we\u2019ll focus on Atmos here.<\/p><p>If an original stereo version of the song already exists, it is advisable to use the stereo master as the starting reference for the 3D mix. After all, the immersive version will ultimately be compared with the master on streaming platforms, and mastering often introduces substantial changes to the overall sound.<\/p><p>The stereo master also serves as a reference for the export length of the Atmos master. Lead-ins, fades, arrangement and all other timing-related elements must match exactly between the two formats, and the files need to be precisely in sync, with a maximum deviation of 50 ms, for the Atmos mix to be accepted by digital streaming platforms. To make it easy to switch between Atmos and stereo while comparing, the stereo reference is included directly in the Dolby Atmos mixing session.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d34af52 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d34af52\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"794\" height=\"189\" src=\"https:\/\/hofa-college.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Stereo-Referenz-Track.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-41500\" alt=\"Der Screenshot zeigt den Stereo Referenz Track in der ProTools Session.

For example, a stereo master can be used as a sidechain signal so that compressors or limiters on the individual channels are all controlled by the same trigger signal.

It is often quite easy to use the original stereo reverbs or echoes in 3D by duplicating them two or three times and placing them in the 3D space with slightly different settings. Often, simply delaying the rear spatial components slightly is enough.<\/p><p>Alternatively, there are now several reverb and delay plugins designed specifically for 3D. However, you should be rather careful with multichannel reverbs in Spatial Audio. Not everything that sounds great on speakers will translate well to headphones! The more reverb channels there are, the greater the chance that the reverb tails will build up during headphone rendering, resulting in an overly &#8220;wet&#8221; headphone mix. If you use 3D reverb, it is therefore advisable to keep its level relatively low.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a4beea4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a4beea4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"354\" src=\"https:\/\/hofa-college.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Kopierte-Stereo-Reverbs-1024x453-1.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-41482\" alt=\"Der Screenshot von ProTools zeigt 3 Duplikate eines Stereo-Reverb-Kanals, die mit dem Plugin &quot;DMG TrackControl&quot; um 40, 60 bzw. 100 ms verz\u00f6gert wurden.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hofa-college.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Kopierte-Stereo-Reverbs-1024x453-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/hofa-college.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Kopierte-Stereo-Reverbs-1024x453-1-300x133.png 300w, https:\/\/hofa-college.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Kopierte-Stereo-Reverbs-1024x453-1-768x340.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Duplicated and delayed stereo reverb stems<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-18a3ede elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"18a3ede\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Mastering &amp; export<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a03584b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a03584b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Delivering a Dolby Atmos mix comes with a number of specifications that you should keep in mind throughout the process.<\/p><p><strong>Loudness: Why -18 LUFS?<\/strong><\/p><p>Dolby Atmos specifies a maximum loudness of -18 LUFS and a maximum true peak of -1 dBTP.
