Just a quick note to tell you that the team at Onkyo Germany is working on updating their Ambra – Prism of Live ambiance Blu-ray to have a Dolby Atmos soundtrack.
There is already a downloadable demo on their webpage here. You need to either burn the ISO file on a Blu-ray disc or extract the m2ts file from it and play it with your media player.
I did test the content yesterday and even if I cannot say I’m a fan of the type of music used, there is some interesting positioning effects, mostly with voices during the 4 minutes and 50 seconds demo.
If you got a Dolby Atmos system at home, give it a try and let me know what you think through the comments !
Downloaded and listened to the demo disc on an Onkyo TX-NR636. Albeit I thought the visuals with the music selection were a bit askew, the overall music piece sounded warm and clear through the speakers and enjoyed the surround sound editing dubbed into the music piece.
Downloaded …the starting was really quite bad the music did not go with the video (waves) it slightly improved at the waterfalls and slightly at the end
If I had to give a score out of 10 I would rate it at 3 very disappointed
Visual content was good, would have preferred no music or less volume with the waves and waterfall. I think the waterfall without music could have showed the benefits from Dolby Atmos and its sense of realism far better.
