Sonic Days at Sonic College

In collaboration with educational and industry partners, Dolby Institute sponsored the second annual Sonic Days on September 13-14. The event featured over 60 sessions on immersive sound design and was aimed at the Nordic audio industry and emerging talent in the region.

The conference centered on the latest technologies, trends, and innovative audio perspectives. It featured discussions led by renowned sound designer Peter Albrectsen, and producer and sound engineer, Morton Linberg. The event provided a platform for industry professionals and emerging talents to connect with sound designers from various fields, including TV and film, music, podcasting, game audio, and museum exhibitions.

As a music producer, I’m trying to bring Dolby Atmos into the process as early as possible. Instead of upmixing music, I’d like us to start creating for Dolby Atmos.
