Imagine stumbling into a drum circle where a shirtless Matthew McConaughey is enjoying some herbal and just letting the musical muse take him where it chooses. Santeria (1:24) This has birds (loons?) that call and move around the room while there is a steady kind of drum beat, shakers, and wind chimes going on. Now the clip is just 48 seconds of rain just pounding and pelting down all around you and the canopy over your head, which, while still impressive, lacks the impact of hearing the soundstage literally collapse all around you as it goes to traditional 5.1, making you never want to go back.

(My full review of Mad Max can be.) Transformers: Age of Extinction (3:22) This is a longer version of the clip included on a previous Atmos demo disc that begins with an insane low-frequency note as an alien ship starts sucking items up into the sky. (My full-admittedly excruciating-review of Jupiter Ascending can be.) Mad Max: Fury Road (2:23) When it came out I called Mad Max the best Dolby Atmos disc to date, and this scene from the opening of the film definitely doesn’t disappoint! The scene instantly immerses you in Max’s world, with voices that swirl, echo, and shift around the room and overhead, deep-throated engine revs that pulse, throb, and roar overhead and along the side walls past the listening position. There is a bit of side channel action, and overhead musical score, but not really anything special. Unfortunately, this is definitely not the scene that I would have selected as the audio is mainly focused in the front of the room as we watch Channing Tatum in a brief battle with some alien bounty hunters.

Game of Thrones (2:46) Thrones is the first TV series to be released with an Atmos soundtrack (seasons 1 and 2 are available now) and this gives you a nice sample of how Atmos audio adds to the onscreen action.

Fortunately, this is where this disc earns its place as your number one go to for demo material, as it includes some choice movie clips that really show off the technology. Movies & TV Let’s face it, movies are where Atmos is really going to take hold in the home theater space, and Dolby’s previous demo disc was really lacking on movie content. There is some great dimensional audio here and a nice commentary telling people exactly what to be listening for that is quite effective. Shattered (0:49) Shattered begins with a baseball crashing through a window and then the scene slips into slow motion as you follow the shards of broken glass tinkling and crashing around the room and baseball traveling past your head and the sounds of children running off in the distance. Leaf features audio mixed by master soundman Gary Rydstrom, animation by Pixar, and makes for a terrific demo.

Leaf (1:00) Leaf takes you back into a forest with bugs darting about the room as you slowly move through the branches of a tree and follow a leaf as it breaks free and then spins and twirls around the room, finally settling into a pond. Crockett also explains the components needed to create a Dolby Atmos home theater environment. Brett Crockett, Dolby’s senior director of research, Sound Technology, does a nice job explaining and simplifying how traditional channel-based surround sound mixing works and why Atmos’ new object-based audio system gives sound designers better tools to move sounds precisely around the room and even overhead to deliver the ultimate immersive experience. The clip starts off by explaining, “A Dolby Atmos soundtrack transports you from an ordinary moment into an extraordinary experience,” and then various onscreen clips swirl audio around the room and overhead. (Note, this offer is only open to integrators, and you will need to provide your company details to receive the disc.) First, here’s a breakdown of the tracks found on the new disc: Introduction to Dolby Atmos for the Home (4:08) This is a terrific sales icebreaker for you to show new home theater clients, as it quickly and simply explains, demonstrates, and demystifies what Dolby Atmos is and why this is “the next revolution” in surround sound technology. While the disc wasn’t initially available for attendees, it is now available for integrators, and it’s a must have for your showroom! A link at the end of this post takes you to a site where you can get a copy for your company. At this past CEDIA show, Dolby created a new Atmos demo Blu-ray disc for exhibitors to use.
