The term ‘spatial audio’ has become quite common recently, English Record Producer and multi-instrumentalist Giles Martin referred to it as the ‘Quantum Leap in Technology’. It enhances the experience, yes! But, it would also not be entirely incorrect to say it has become a fad thingy for devices to be laced with the spatial audio technology.
Now, Echo Studio is also getting Amazon’s custom-built Spatial audio processing technology for better stereo sound and an improved frequency range technology for better mid-range clarity and deeper bass. The device already supports both Dolby Atmos and Sony 360 Reality Audio, so the new features are an added attraction.
Along with enhancing stereo sound, the Spatial audio processing technology offers greater width, clarity and presence that, according to Amazon, will make Echo Studio a ‘hi-fi stereo system’. The new features will automatically roll out on Echo Studio devices via a software update.
So the next time you are using your Echo Studio for a symphony orchestra, you may actually feel like you’re sitting in the middle of one!
