AES Europe 2025

Since we've moved from stereo to surround and 3D/immersive productions, many immersive music mixes still sound very much like larger stereo versions. Part of the reason for this is the record company's demands and the argument, that people don't have properly set up systems at home or only listen with headphones. But that's not the way to experience the real adventure, which is to create new, stunning sound and musical experiences. The workshop will not criticize mixes, but try to open the door to the new dimension of music and discuss the pros and cons that producers have to deal with today.
