Oh wow! I'm not an audiophile but I imagine that would be quite the listening experience. I wonder how this is done, is it just a matter of the audio signal being divided into different frequencies or something? Or are the original recordings used to split the signal?

They forgot about Memorial address, FIVE, sixxxxxx and TROUBLE. I wanted to hear BRILLANTE in Spatial Audio... oh well, maybe next time.

Some of the songs sound really different in Atmos.

It's like surrounding sound but in a 3D space. That is when you turn your head around (if you have the compatible tech like AirPods) the different sounds (from the original track layers, which are previously placed in a 3D scene) remains at the same place. Like you are physically in the center of the playing music. When your head goes in the opposite direction of the established spacial source of the sound, the sound is lowering.

I only tried the auto conversion of some of my musics into this form (via iOS Bluetooth settings). It was fun but not really worthy from my point of view. I disabled it really quick because it also kinda kills the original mastering.

I'm eager to know if that effort on her previous tracks will have a much more different result than the basic auto conversion.

Thanks for the explanation; I did have an idea of how it worked but I was mainly curious how exactly it was achieved for these particular releases. I know that the audio signal can be divided automatically (like the auto conversion you did), hence, my question whether this is a matter of simply auto-converted/-divided audio signals or whether someone went back to the master recordings and separated actual audio tracks. If anyone finds out, let us know!

FYI you have to delete the song/album and re-download to get the Dolby Atmos version. I am slowly updating my ayu discography....

How can I get a Dolby Atmos version of a song that I already downloaded to my library?

To get a Dolby Atmos version of a song that you already downloaded from Apple Music, just delete the song and redownload it from the Apple Music catalog.

Unafortunely, it's not available for Android users, if I understand well.

Actually Android users can use Apple Music,just need to confirm if ur device supports Apple DOLBY ATMOS
The sound is better
LOVE again is still bad quality I think remaster is the only way
Missing sounds stereo
