Think you’ve heard it all? Betcha you haven't!

When you consume content — TV shows and movies, commercials and YouTube videos, Grand Theft Auto and Candy Crush… — you’re used to sounds coming from your left and right, but what about in front, behind, above or below you?

In this panel discussion, you’ll explore and experience fast-evolving 3D audio technology and the ways in which it’s changing how we produce and consume our digital content.

Panelists include Scott Persson (Audio Engineer, Sound Lounge), Roberto Baibich (Founder, Awful Code) and Veronique Larcher (Director of Research North America, Sennheiser).

Moderated by Geir Skaaden (SVP of of Products and Platforms, DTS).
