    I have some AirPods that can do spacial audio, and I’ve yet to hear a track where I was like, “oh wow, that added so much!”

      I might be a weirdo with faulty ears but spatialized audio makes huge difference to me on AirPods Pro 2. Hand-made Dolby Atmos mixes don’t offer much over that though tbh.

        Maybe it’s my hardware, too. I have first gen AirPods Pro, and the spacial music simply hasn’t been impressive on them.

          Nah, I have the 2nd gen and it just ruins music. The effect is somewhat interesting with some movies, but I mostly just stick with pure stereo.

    I use Logic Pro to make music, which allows you to mix in Atmos. Maybe I’ll give this a try in one of my future releases. I’m not sure how I can get the atmos format into Apple Music though, since it needs to be uploaded via distributor, and distributors push your music to all platforms at the same time.
