What is so special about 3D Surround?

3D Surround has two enormous advantages over conventional surround sound. On the one hand, individual sound sources can be located much better and more clearly with 3D Surround. On the other hand, 3D Surround also reflects height differences much better. This results in a more extensive and much clearer sound image in a quality that cannot be achieved with conventional surround sound. 

The sound not only reaches the listener’s ear from the side, but also from above. This results in a much better localisation of the sound source and a much more immersive listening experience which makes it the perfect surround type for VR applications and Dolby Atmos.

Recorded with the most advaced technology

The 3D Surround libraries are recorded with the highly-acclaimed SCHOEPS ORTF-3D setup, a cuboid 8ch level/time difference ambience setup. The additional height layer offers a much wider range of spatial sound effects and more realism in three-dimensional reproduction. Therefore it provides a clearer representation of spatial depth, a more natural surround impression, improved envelopment and a much more realistic feel

What they recorded

Boom Library has visited vibrant and lively American metropolises and captured the pulse of these cities in many different places. They focused on providing an extraordinary variety of sounds that would offer a sound designer a rich, balanced and absolutely professional range of tools.
