Yeah I'm having trouble getting all my movies converted into headphones surround. My first love of surround formats came when the The TV salesman looked at our media room which is very asymmetrical and in 2008 said it would cost $10,000 in labor alone plus the equipment to get it working in one particular place for surround sound. Luckily my friend was a competitor on WCG Ultimate Gamer season 1 and he never played his headphones before he listened to the Triton sponsored headphones and it's the games that use them well he said he could pick out sounds in 3D and make decisions a lot quicker and Do a lot more blind dodging and blind aiming than a normal stereo set. I got a Turtle Beach DSS1 which works great for the movie or video game.... As long as the movie or video game is encoded in some form of Dolby. Every Dolby movie sounded great through that every DTS movie was silent. Every LPCM movie sounded lackluster. The PlayStation 3 had auto conversions to any of the three formats based on what you told that your sound system could do. The Xbox One S came really close to the perfect audio system for movies that You could buy Dolby Atmos headphone for 15 bucks or DTS X headphone for 20 bucks or both and also use window Sonic which converts LPCM into a headphone surround track. The problem with that is it doesn't auto switch for some strange reason. I asked Dolby and DTS representatives why would anyone want to listen to all Dolby even on DTS movies and vice versa and both of them admitted you want to keep the headphone format and original movie format hand in glove. Mixing formats is the worst thing you could do in home theater. In our communal surround sound room we have to make compromises we have a Turtle Beach DSS1 but It only works on TV shows on Dish Network and on movies that are encoded in Dolby. No one makes a universal headphone adapter that could be spread to three or more users on headphones that could convert every movie accurately into 3D surround sound. The closest thing I found was the Xbox One S. The problem is I need to keep my One S for the 3D movies because the series S doesn't do 3D movies or blu-rays in general because it doesn't have a physical disc. But it couldn't do 3D digital movies either. What would be the best solution to this problem?

Love the Super Monkey Ball music. Miss that game

can u explain abt IMAX Laser 11.1 audio and why imax doesn't have many speaker counts in theatre like dts and dolby

Thank you

0:24 sssssssssssssssmoking

11:54 and also in cars! My 2014 Lincoln MKS has the 14-speaker THX Audio system. It has a dedicated center channel and trunk mounted subwoofer that is ported through the rear deck. Sounds absolutely incredible

What's the music during the Binaural Sound segment?

Thx got greedy they put themselves out of business.

Wow!

when im in a launching shittons of confusing formats competition and my opponent is dolby

For Qsound it was permanently in the mix. It was never utilized well. You can hear it's potential at 1:07 of the Sting song Mad About You even on your stereo phone. Put phone close to your face with the stereo positioned left and right. If you hold the phone so left and right are vertical it doesn't work and the slide bass almost dissappears. But when positioned properly the bass is to the left and slightly behind. Back in 1990 you could see how can engineer is worried it will mess up the mono mix or sub par listening. But it Eleven works from TH-cam video th-cam.com/video/MxtYzo0OLXs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=s-PRhV4Jc2NYz-8t

WOW that Tempo conversion is shocking!

2024. This is one of the best summations/explanations of the endless marketing BS regarding sound format wars. The simplicity of 5.1 is still top-notch vs modern day Atmos this and that. I remember there was a format that included a centre rear channel, making it 6.1. Personally, for me I think that would be the ideal format without an overkill of channels for typical home theater set ups. Cinemas would be different due to the large venue allowing for unlimited space and speaker placement options. A full discrete 10.1 surround set up in this case. eg L, R, C, left upper channel, right upper channel and the same at the back = 10 discrete channels + the subwoofer would be the way to go. Unless you are a multi-millionaire who can afford a large, dedicated home theatre room, this would be an overkill setup for a typical home environment. Personally, for me, that THX intro was the best out of all the format promos videos. Gave me goose bumps in its presentation especially at home.

Really, thank you. This was one of the most confusing thing for the longest that I'm slightly more confident about.

Dolby Virtual?

Great video! Thanks 🙌🏾

Fantastic summary. Clarified alot of my guesses and questions.. Thanks alot!

Alright guys, I have maybe seen one comment that may have said what I’m about to say but no one else seems to mention it: Does anyone at all recall seeing this trailer before the theatrical showing of Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones in 2002 at all? It might be a mix up of memory from maybe seeing something in 2003 but I swear I remember seeing this trailer before the movie multiple times.. could be a “Mandela effect” you could say but curious if I’m the only one

Action movies that lack proper punch and kick impact sounds are my biggest pet peeve.

I talk about audio

Where Form Film?

I know this one's a couple of years old, but if you do another one, I have a couple of suggestions for you. One is Final Fantasy 7's Shinra Company, or Infiltrating Shinra Tower, whose main motif really reminds me of The Running Man soundtrack's "Medical Checkup". Also, in Granblue Fantasy, the Robomi theme is remarkably similar to the song "Sky High" by the band Jigsaw. That one is particularly uncanny.

Hey this is amazing, we need a 2nd part!!

Is it bad to always have my subwoofer on when I play old games? The other day I was playing thunder force v and there was a song that the subwoofer was extremely distracting in which got me thinking that these games probably aren't designed with a subwoofer in mind

I think "plagiarism" is a bit of a strong word but this is interesting regardless. I was expecting Metal Squad from Thunder Force IV and Soldier of Fortune to be featured too

Always enjoyed going to the cinema back in the day to see the THX logo and the full cinema sound experience 😂

Wow, I love how Deep Purple inspired the music in legend of Zelda, especially the dungeon theme.

Damn I feel how heartbroken that guy would have been if the disk was stolen

that soundtrack documentary might be one of the most fascinating things i've heard about in quite a while, really shows you the painstaking amount of time that goes into sound design, especially remaking it for modern general audiences nowadays

5:35 There Is A Miles Davis Song Called "Calypso Frelimo" Recorded In 1973, The Song Starts With The Super Mario Bros Underground Theme As A Fast Bassline, But In The Minute 10:45 The Bassline Gets Slower, And It Turns More Easy To Listen And Relationate.

To me DTS always sounded best and was always the most dynamic

You forgot super audio cd 💿

Top Draw 20.00 Life LOWERS

playing the remaster on pc love it but do wish the surround speakers were a bit louder

When I first got this disc I played WOW dozens of times. I wish they would release it in HD. Some have tried, and it's possible to replace the footage with the new HD versions. But you can't get the closing classic logo I love so much in HD. I lved this disc. Loved the foley part and have used it to explain to many. Thanks for uploading it. - Toronto, Canada.

This was a compact and clear summary. My perception is that Dolby usually was the first to invent a technology first, then DTS tried to one-up it at a higher bitrate, and we need to pay license fees to both and often have duplicate tracks on discs. A gaming computer could output separate channels, why would it choose a compressed format to send the signal a few meters to an amp?

I missed the announcement of this channel but I love it

You forgot to point out that the fart from the last second of the video was the entire soundtrack from Doom on 32X.

Be cool if you did a video on the PS5's new Dolby Atmos that uses the Tempest 3D Audio Engine data to process the sound. From my testing I have been quite impressed. SpiderMan 2 seems to have a proper Atmos mix but Horizon FW doesn't but still sounds great.

Mono speaker gigachads, where you at?

Y more people not explained ultra streos

I’m genuinely shocked that Lars has not disintegrated Doom with copyright lawsuits

Its common for game designers to ask the composer to go as close as possible but change it up enough from the reference track.

TH-cam does support surround unfortunately this video is only in stereo so if you plan to use it for a surround test dont bother. But if youre just here for nostalgia keep on watching!

Dolbyt normalno

I miss this era of LucasFilm. The 90's was great: TV, movies, books, comics, magazines, games, merch. Dumbass Fanboiz complained about everything Lucas did, but I enjoyed almost all of it. Great decade for the best entertainment company of all time - until Disney flushed it down the toilet.

Zelda and Mario. Tsk Tsk. Legendary themes. Ripped off.

My favorite thing about this is Joe’s titles. Of course now in the modern age with the spread of retro gaming culture, and the knowledge we gain from being active on the internet in these circles, we all know the proper terminology. “Ah yes, this is the overworld theme!” But these minidiscs aren’t from 2020’s Joe Red. They’re from 1994 Joe Red. “This is the song that plays when you go outside, this is the outside music.” I think it paints a nice picture of what gaming culture was like and how the average gamer - or even someone verrrrry deep into the hobby - what kind of common vernacular they would’ve used in referring to this stuff.
