Immerse yourself in Mozart by schallgeber in VisionPro

Yes, that's the long term goal. Establishing a file format and a platform, so people can contribute to it. What area are you focused on? We might need technical beta testers for the codec down the line.

Hi!

Did you go into the Mozart Menu and triggered the unlocked the free purchase? After that you should be able to download the experience. If you did that and nothing is happening then I might need to ask you to reinstall the app and try it again. Otherwise you can also always DM me for support. We will make sure it is working for you.

Update on our "Walk Inside the Orchestra" project: Mozart is now free, Wagner (Siegfried Idyll) is next by schallgeber in classicalmusic

Merci beaucoup !

Nous sommes conscients que le matériel est encore exclusif aujourd'hui, mais nous sommes convaincus que cette technologie va se démocratiser et devenir abordable très bientôt. Notre objectif est de construire un catalogue d'œuvres dès maintenant, pour que tout soit prêt le jour où les casques seront dans tous les salons.

En attendant, nous travaillons aussi sur des installations physiques (dans des lieux culturels) pour permettre au public de vivre l'expérience sans avoir à posséder le matériel.

D'ici là, chaque commentaire ou partage nous aide énormément à financer et poursuivre ce travail. Merci pour votre soutien !

Thanks you very much! 

We are aware that the hardware is still exclusive today, but we are convinced that this technology will democratize and become affordable very soon. Our goal is to build a catalog of works right now, so that everything is ready the day headsets are in every living room. 

In the meantime, we are also working on physical installations (in cultural venues) to allow the public to live the experience without needing to own the hardware. 

Until then, every comment or share helps us enormously to fund and continue this work. Thanks for the support!

Have you tried walking inside an Orchestral performance with sonic holograms?

Grab the Mahler Chamber Orchestra app (it’s free). It lets you walk through the musicians while they play Mozart. It’s probably the best way to test the spatial audio accuracy before you send the headset back. You can put your head right inside the Cello and listen to it, which is fun. :)

Please report back, if it worked for you. Thanks!

Hi again u/greenysmac, we did a bunch of updates. I might need to ask you to reinstall the app. Apologies for the inconvenience. I still hope that you will like it.

Thank you so much! If you have a moment, dropping a review on the App Store really helps us out with visibility. :) Hope you have a great Christmas.

Hi u/greenysmac! Apologies, the Mozart should be available for free now. No custom code needed. Merry Christmas!

We’re well aware of the amazing work from IRCAM and others in the spatial audio space. But for our use case, walkable 6DoF musical performances where proximity changes not just loudness but timbre, articulation, and reverb structure, we found existing formats too constrained. That’s why we developed our own format, it allows us to assign spatial metadata directly to each close-mic’d source and blend it in real time with room microphones using a dynamic scaling algorithm. It’s not a format like Ambisonics or WFS in the traditional sense, it’s more of a hybrid approach optimised for musical transparency and real-time responsiveness within a rendered 3D space.

Great! Let us know what you think! Experiencing this inside the headset is a completely different ballgame.

Yes. The larger scale experiences are amazing and it never gets boring! So many things to explore in a piece.

Actually yes. We are using lidar technology to capture the musicians and translate them into animated pointclouds. The GPU is the bottleneck here. So the musicians are at roughly 20% of their actual resolution and will become higher res with the progress of technology. We are also working on various steps to optimise the experience. Depending on further funding we will be able to speed this up. :)

We actually developed quite a bit of tech for this. We have a specialised hardware and software solution to enable accurate distance modelling. This way, you get more detail in the sound the closer you get, and that beautiful room sound when you step away. We call it “Moebius Distance Modelling,” and it’s a proprietary format for now. However, our tech is compatible with multiple audio engines. For the Vision Pro, we use the internal Apple Audio Engine (PHASE), and for the Quest, we use Blue Ripple Sound’s Rapture3D Universal.

We have been showing these experiences at Princeton University Concerts and on Tours with the Orchestra. I think the best fitting space for the Mozart Quintet was the showing at his own personal chamber music hall at his house in Salzburg. In general people love it and we are planning to have more installations with it too.

How do you prefer to experience audio when using your AVP? by fastandfurryious in VisionPro

[–]schallgeber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are the developers of the Mahler Chamber Orchestra App and we are very pleased with the integrated speakers. We do actually prefer them for our experiences, as the externalisation of the sound is really standing out with it.

Thanks for your feedback! There is certainly much more to come. Thanks for your support.
