DOLBY ATMOS FILES

Dolby Atmos Deliverables can include the the following files

  • Audio Definition Model Broadcast Wave File (ADM BWF)

  • Encoded Dolby Digital Plus Joint Object Coding (MP4)

  • Binaural re-render

  • Stereo re-render

  • Dolby Atmos Master Files

The ADM BWF is the final deliverable for distribution and archival purposes. This is the entire Atmos Mix encapsulated in one file at hi-res, lossless quality for upload to distributors/aggregators.

The MP4, Binaural re-render, and Stereo re-render are used for reference.

APPLE MUSIC SPATIAL AUDIO

Use the MP4 on an Apple Device capable of Spatial Audio with AirPods (3rd gen), AirPods Pro, or AirPods Max.

  • Download the MP4 file to your device to ensure proper playback

  • Make sure you are listening in Spatial Audio. During playback go to Control Center, press and hold on the volume indicator - a larger volume indicator will pop up. At the bottom it should say Dolby Atmos and there should be a Spatial Audio button that should be blue.
