FMOD

Audio system now supports MyEars 3D headphone effects.

1st March, 2010. Sydney

What is MyEars™

Everyone hears sound in 3D, it has kept us alive since man crawled out the primordial ooze. MyEars™ renders your favourite games in realistic surround sound over headphones.

Personalise

MyEars™ patented technology personalises audio to your ears, so you can discover a private world of 3D sound generated over standard headphones. Others may talk about 3D sound but that is a generic approach, one size doesn’t fit all. MyEars™ determines the shape of your ears and is the only true personalised 3D audio experience.

MyEars™ is now integrated with FMOD, so as audio and game designers you don’t have to do anything different, other than maybe think more about how you can exploit this gorgeous sense of spaciousness. This will drive more engagement and presence in your game! Publishing and development partners will recognise the uplift provided by this new solution to complete the gamers experience and deliver true NextGen sound. This is a must for all competitive gaming titles.

This partnership between Personal Audio and Firelight Technologies will enable the delivery of efficient and transparent fully immersive 3D audio to new and existing FMOD based games. The player who uses the MyEars™ /FMOD combination can be fully transported and engaged inside the game.
