A demonstration of a newly developed network spatial audio engine and its client software to show how an object-based audio performance can presented simultaneously locally and in a virtual venue. I’ll play multiple tracks of audio and position data from a laptop, as a surrogate for a local performance, and stream this object-based audio into a 6 DoF virtual audio space. Then show how a remote audience can join the same audio space via web browsers, listen to the music and explore the space. And finally I’ll show streaming back a resolved ambisonic mix of the original performance and the sounds of the remote audience into the auditorium and play it out. I'll walk it through and show how all audio and data transfer is done with simple data structures and standard non-proprietary, streaming protocols.
