Throughout the decades, advances in listening technologies have emerged to enhance our relationship to post-stereo sound, from the quadraphonic sounds of the 1960s and 1970s to the surround-sound formats first popularized in the 1980s. Dolby has remained at the forefront of many of these endeavors, and their state-of-the-art Atmos system brings multidimensional audio immersion to artistic experiences of every kind. At Sweetwater, we know how often the brightest and most curious musical minds among us yearn to build within the sandbox of cutting-edge sounds, so we challenged ourselves: could we build a Dolby Atmos 7.1.2 mixing setup for less than $2,000? Sonic scholar Mitch Gallagher takes the helm to discover what we could do. Check it out!

Could you do a video showing how to use the 18i20 as an atmos controller? I'm curious on the specifics

[@SteveWilliamsworld]

One of the best vids you guys have done. Great ideas.

[@edinettemomperousse-sf4uu]

Hi mr.Gallager,I purchased A focus rite I followd,the down the instructions and my Dell inspiration crashed,now all I have is this fone,and a tablet that,seems to scarsly,work,😅😅😅

[@amazeus1980]

I still like to mix in mono lol 😂

[@eternal3083]

Seems complicated with the mackie speakers only having 1 amp per pair of speakers, would be a more flexible setup if the speakers didnt have to be connected to each other with speaker wire

[@grantbrown3647]

Yes, whatever works if you are the creator.

[@FolkStudioHP305]

best microphone for singing under 30000 Budget plez help

[@aviani3335]

Bro ! .. just stick to stereo. Those speakers are not going to cut it

[@JesusMTossas]

I truly get the purpose of the video, but at the same time it harms the industry. This is the reason why so much music this days have bad mix and production. We keep thinking doing it for the cheap. This kind of video have a trickle effect….
