Dive into a three-dimensional soundscape with Deezer’s game-changing 360 Reality Audio. This 2024 update explores the technology, its benefits, and how you can experience it for yourself.
Unveiling the Magic of 3D Sound:

How Does It Work?
Forget left and right channels; 360RA treats each sound as an individual object. This intricate positioning, powered by spatial audio codecs, creates a multi-dimensional soundscape that mimics a live performance or studio environment.
