👉 Surround engineering, also known as surround sound or 3D audio, is the process of designing and implementing audio systems that create a spatial audio experience for listeners. It involves strategically placing speakers around the listening environment to simulate sound sources as if they were physically present in space, thereby enhancing the immersive quality of audio content. This technique uses various techniques like binaural recording, object-based audio, and Dolby Atmos to manipulate sound waves, making it appear as though sounds are emanating from specific directions and distances. Surround engineering can dramatically improve the realism and engagement of movies, video games, and music listening by enveloping the listener in a rich, three-dimensional soundscape.
