What is 3D Audio?
In short, when recorded audio contains more spatial information than simple stereo, we can call it “3D Audio”. Or we can use one of the related terms “Ambisonics” and “Immersive Audio”. The main difference to stereo is that stereo only provides information to localise sound sources in the horisontal plane from left to right, while 3D audio in addition includes front-to-back and/or down-to-up information.
This means that 3D audio files greatly increase the sense of envelopment and realism of audio productions. This is especially true for so-called “higher order recordings” (read more here), for two reasons: Firstly, they make it possible to locate sounds much more precisely when listening. Secondly, they increase the sense of actually “being there”.
What is Munk Productions Ambisonic Ambiences?
Munk Productions Ambisonic Ambiences (MPAA) is a growing library of royalty free 3D audio ambiences and 3D sound effects for immediate download. Our primary focus is ambiences, that is, background sounds of all kinds. In addition, we also produce a smaller number of sound effects to match the ambiences where it makes sense to do so.
We record all ambiences to 3rd order Ambisonics format (Higher Order Ambisonics, HOA) and make them available as
- 16-channel 3rd order Ambisonic files for Ambisonic projects
- binaural (stereo) immersive files ready to use in stereo projects
You can purchase the two file types together with the Ambisonic Download Passes and packages, or as binaural only in the Binaural Download Passes and packages.
