03What 3D Surround Meansthe technique▾
High-precision sound locationConventional surround often leaves a diffuse image of the source; 3D Surround draws a crystal-clear picture of where a sound comes from and where it moves
The third dimensionA height layer is added, so sound reaches the ear from above as well as from the side — better localisation and a far more immersive image
The setupThe highly-acclaimed SCHOEPS ORTF-3D setup: a cuboid eight-channel level and time difference ambience array of supercardioid microphones
What it gives youA clearer representation of spatial depth, a more natural surround impression, improved envelopment and an authentic feel
