Hi,
I have recently got into mixing with Spatial Audio in Logic Pro X.
I have had trouble getting my tracks to playback on Apple Music to compare them to other songs. I export my projects as ADM BWF files but I cannot play/import them to apple music. How can I do this?
Many Thanks
The simple answer is you can't play ADM files locally. The only way of doing this is with the Dolby Reference Player, Dolby didn't even bother responding to the support request I sent them asking about who this is available to.
You have to encode the ADM to an MP4 this requires the Dolby Atmos Production Suite which can only be bought exclusively via AVID.
However you still can't play that MP4 using Apple Music. Apple Music can only play Atmos streamed from the Apple Music service.
The only way is to send the MP4 to a consumer Atmos device such as an AVReceiver. Than in itself is painful.
It as if Dolby don't want people QAing encoded files as they make it needlessly difficult to do.
