Spatial Audio: Techniques, Tools, and Creative Practice
Aarhus Lydforening in collaboration with the Royal Academy of Music Aarhus/Aalborg - Det Jyske Musikkonservatorium is 3-day workshop that offers an introduction to spatial audio, combining theoretical insights with hands-on practice. Participants will explore spatial listening and sound
perception, learn the fundamentals of Ambisonics - one of the most widely used techniques in the field, and experiment with methods for composing in spatial audio.
Through practical exercises, they will become familiar with the tools and software used to create Ambisonic works, take part in a focused listening sessions, and will have a chance to develop individual compositional sketches. The workshop concludes with a presentation of participants' creations.
Prerequisites
No prior experience with spatial audio is required. However, a basic understanding of digital audio workstations (DAWs) will be helpful.
