AMBISONICS PROJECT
360° AUDIO Soundscape
Sound Designing indoor and outdoor soundscapes with moving emitters placed all over the reverberant sound field.
The quiet and homely soundscape is disturbed by surreal Sci-Fi glimpses, processed as quadriphonic sound sources. To enhance the strangeness, I introduced auditory illusions as the Shepard Tone and the constant spectrum melody, which are popular in film scoring.
To go round Ableton's Stereo Output limit, all audio signals are encoded at the end of each channel and sent to a Master Section where WXYZ (ambisonics) and LR signals are conveyed to SoundFlower as 6 separated audio signals
Inside Element, SoundFlower outputs are routed into Waves NX where is possible to see a 3D audio map of the project
The first 4 SoundFlower outputs can be routed into a 16+ speaker system depending on the encoding algorithm.
