Apple’s public relations team worked overdrive to hype spatial audio at the WWDC 2020 conference, held virtually this past June. Compatible with the AirPods Pro and enabled in iOS 14, spatial audio uses the accelerometers built into the true wireless earphones to create a three-dimensional listening experience-at least that’s the promise.

苹果公司的公共关系团队在今年6月举行的WWDC 2020年大会上大力推动空间音频的发展。 空间音频与AirPods Pro兼容并在iOS 14中启用，它使用内置在真正的无线耳机中的加速度计来创建三维聆听体验-至少这是有希望的。

Sony and various other audio manufacturers have, for years, attempted to recreate spatial or three-dimensional audio experiences using algorithms and effects, and the results have rarely been convincing. In addition, they often do more harm than good to stereo mixes.

索尼和其他各种音频制造商多年来一直尝试使用算法和效果来重建空间或三维音频体验，其结果很少令人信服。 此外，它们通常不利于立体声混音。

Considering Apple surprised us by managing to nail effective active noise cancellation with the AirPods Pro, can it do the same with spatial audio?

考虑到Apple设法通过AirPods Pro采取有效的主动降噪措施令我们感到惊讶，它是否可以对空间音频做到这一点？

什么是空间音频？ (What Is Spatial Audio?)

Spatial audio isn’t about slapping some surround-sound effect on stereo audio. Rather, the AirPods Pro use accelerometers to track the movement of your head, and the directionality of the audio changes in kind, for a more immersive surround experience.

空间音频并不是要在立体声音频上拍一些环绕声效果。 相反，AirPods Pro使用加速度计来跟踪您的头部运动，并且音频的方向性会以实物形式变化，从而提供更身临其境的环绕体验。

We’ve seen this sort of feature before on over-ear headphones and gaming headsets like the Dolby Dimension and the HyperX Cloud Orbit S, but in-ear implementation is quite new.

我们之前已经在诸如Dolby Dimension和HyperX Cloud Orbit S的入耳式耳机和游戏耳机中看到了这种功能，但是入耳式实现是一个相当新的功能。

Any fears that this effect would be applied haphazardly to the finely crafted stereo mixes in your music library can be laid to rest-by and large, spatial audio doesn’t work with stereo music content. At least at the outset, the list of what does work with spatial audio is somewhat limited.

任何担心会偶然将这种效果应用到音乐库中精巧的立体声混音的担心都可以搁置，大型空间音频不适用于立体声音乐内容。 至少从一开始，与空间音频配合使用的内容的列表就受到了一定的限制。

空间音频的软件和固件更新 (Software and Firmware Updates for Spatial Audio)

You’ll need to make sure your iPhone is up to date before trying out spatial audio for yourself. Check your phone and make sure you’ve got iOS 14 loaded.

在亲自尝试空间音频之前，您需要确保iPhone是最新的。 检查手机，并确保已加载iOS 14。

Next, you need to make sure your AirPods Pro firmware is up to date-it should be version 3A283. In the iOS Settings menu under General, tap About, then tap on your AirPods to confirm that you have this version (see image below). If not, place the earphones in the charging case, connect the charging case to a power source, and make sure the earphones are still connected to your phone. Assuming you’re on a decent Wi-Fi signal, the update should come through fairly quickly. Within thirty minutes or so, my AirPods Pro had the new firmware.

接下来，您需要确保您的AirPods Pro固件是最新的-版本应为3A283。 在iOS设置菜单中的常规下，点击关于，然后在AirPods上点击以确认您具有此版本(请参见下图)。 如果没有，请将耳机放在充电盒中，将充电盒连接到电源，并确保耳机仍与手机相连。 假设您使用的是合适的Wi-Fi信号，则更新应该很快完成。 在三十分钟左右的时间内，我的AirPods Pro就安装了新固件。

如何启用空间音频 (How to Enable Spatial Audio)

If you pull up your iOS device’s Control Center screen, you should see the AirPods Pro appear where the volume slider is. Press and hold on this slider, and a screen appears with three controls: one large volume slider, a Noise Cancellation switch (it can be turned on, off, or put in Transparency mode), and Spatial Audio On/Off.

如果拉起iOS设备的“控制中心”屏幕，则应该看到AirPods Pro出现在音量滑块所在的位置。 按住此滑块，将显示一个带有三个控件的屏幕：一个大音量滑块，一个“降噪”开关(可以将其打开，关闭或置于“透明”模式)以及“打开/关闭空间音频”。

When you enable spatial audio, the icon turns blue, and if the audio you’re listening to works with spatial audio, the icon will be animated. If the audio isn’t supported, the icon will still be blue, but remain still. If you disable spatial audio completely, the icon’s background goes from blue to black. It’s worth noting that, in testing, the spatial audio feature was set to On by default.

启用空间音频时，该图标变为蓝色，并且如果您正在收听的音频与空间音频一起工作，则该图标将被动画化。 如果不支持音频，则图标将仍然为蓝色，但仍保持不变。 如果完全禁用空间音频，则图标的背景将从蓝色变为黑色。 值得注意的是，在测试中，默认情况下将空间音频功能设置为“开”。

If you want a deeper dive, go to the Bluetooth menu, tap on the “i” icon next to your paired AirPods Pro, and a screen with various controls and bits of information about your earphones will appear. Scroll down, and you’ll see not only the Spatial Audio On/Off slider, but a See & Hear How It Works link, which brings up the screen in the image below.

如果您想进行更深层次的潜水，请转到蓝牙菜单，点击配对的AirPods Pro旁边的“ i”图标，然后会出现一个屏幕，其中包含有关耳机的各种控件和一些信息。 向下滚动，您不仅会看到Spatial Audio On / Off滑块，而且还会看到See＆Hear How It Works链接，该链接将在下图中显示屏幕。

The demo starts with a chime-and-shaker-driven percussive audio loop in stereo; you’re then invited to press Spatial Audio to experience the loop with the effect on.

该演示从立体声的振铃和振动器驱动打击乐循环开始； 然后邀请您按空间音频体验启用效果的循环。

My first impression, based on this demo, is that the audio simply sounds like it’s going through a different type of reverb and EQ filter. But with a little head movement, you notice the effect. Turn your head to the right, and the shaker is in your left ear; turn to the left, and it ends up back in your right ear.

基于此演示，我的第一印象是音频听起来好像正在通过不同类型的混响和EQ滤波器。 但是只要稍微移动一下头，您就会注意到效果。 将头向右转，摇床在左耳； 向左转，它最终回到右耳。

When the shaker is directly in front of you, it almost sounds like what you’d hear if you had the exact same music blasting through speakers and playing at a moderate volume through headphones in the same room at the same time (yes, I’ve done this many times because it sounds cool). In this scenario, you hear some of the room sound along with the direct audio of the headphone signal, and it can create an immersive feeling.

当摇床正好在您面前时，如果您通过扬声器同时播放完全相同的音乐，并同时在同一房间中通过耳机以中等音量播放，则听起来几乎就像您听到的声音一样(是的，我做了很多次，因为它听起来很酷)。 在这种情况下，您会听到一些室内声音以及耳机信号的直接音频，这会产生一种身临其境的感觉。

观看具有空间音频的电影 (Watching Movies With Spatial Audio)

I went with a Denis Villeneuve movie, Blade Runner 2049 (downloaded from iTunes), to try spatial audio, and the effect is evident immediately. This isn’t a basic algorithm at work; it recognizes where you are in relation to your phone. Turn your head, and the ear closer to your phone will hear more audio. Dialogue may seem to move more dramatically than background noises, but everything shifts to a degree. It’s cool for a few minutes, but hearing film audio this way gets old eventually-the stereo mix without this effect applied is more engaging.

我看了一部丹尼斯·维伦纽夫的电影《银翼杀手2049》 (从iTunes下载)，尝试空间音频，效果立即显现。 这不是工作中的基本算法。 它可以识别您在手机上的位置。 转动头，让耳朵靠近手机会听到更多声音。 对话似乎比背景噪音更动人，但一切都在一定程度上发生了变化。 几分钟就很酷，但是用这种方式听电影的声音最终会变老-没有应用此效果的立体声混音更具吸引力。

Black Panther, streamed via Disney+, sounds a little more transformed, but not necessarily for the better. In quiet dialogue scenes, the audio sounds wildly different when listening in default stereo mode versus spatial audio. Yes, turning your head changes the sonic placement of the dialogue, but the dialogue itself then seems coated in a bizarre reverb and EQ that doesn’t make it easier to hear or enhance the viewing experience. Action scenes with more foley effects fare better, but sometimes expose the limits of feature.

通过迪士尼+流式传输的《黑豹》听起来似乎有些变形，但不一定会变得更好。 在安静的对话场景中，在默认立体声模式下收听音频与在空间音频上收听时，音频听起来截然不同。 是的，转动头会改变对话的声音位置，但是对话本身似乎被怪异的混响和均衡器所覆盖，这并不能使收听或增强观看体验变得更加容易。 具有更多foley效果的动作场景效果更好，但有时会暴露功能的局限性。

For instance, consider a slap-back delay when a character yells outside-if you turn your head, the voice moves from one ear to the other, but the slap-back does too. In a real-life setting, the delay would be happening around you, and so moving your head would shift the origin sound (the voice) from one ear or another, but the slap-back delay (ostensibly the voice echoing off nearby walls and surfaces) would remain in both ears. Sure, one ear would get more than another, or maybe you’d hear more of one particular echo than another in one ear depending on how you turn your head, but the delay wouldn’t be traceable to a single location like the original voice is-and that’s what happens here.

例如，考虑一个角色向外面大喊时的回音延迟-如果您转动头，声音会从一只耳朵移动到另一只耳朵，但是回音也是如此。 在现实生活中，延迟可能会在您周围发生，因此移动头部会使原声(语音)从一只耳朵或另一只耳朵转移，但是回响延迟(表面上的声音回荡在附近的墙壁和表面)留在两只耳朵上。 当然，一只耳朵会比另一只耳朵得到更多的声音，或者也许您会听到一只耳朵比另一只耳朵更多的特定回声，这取决于您转动头的方式，但这种延迟无法追溯到像原始声音一样的单个位置是-这就是这里发生的情况。

That said, the effect itself is impressive, and the possibilities for games and apps are exciting. And if you don’t like it, you can disable it.

也就是说，效果本身令人印象深刻，游戏和应用程序的可能性令人兴奋。 如果您不喜欢它，可以将其禁用。

空间音频值得炒作吗？ (Is Spatial Audio Worth the Hype?)

For now, spatial audio is a cool effect that adds an interesting, if somewhat gimmicky, layer to movies, TV, and other videos, as long as they support the feature. We got it to work with content from iTunes, Apple TV+, HBO Max, and Disney+, but it didn’t work with Amazon Prime Video or Netflix.

就目前而言，空间音频是一种很酷的效果，只要它们支持此功能，它就会在电影，电视和其他视频中添加有趣的(即使有些花哨的)层。 我们将其与iTunes，Apple TV +，HBO Max和Disney +的内容配合使用，但不适用于Amazon Prime Video或Netflix。

In other words, out of the gate, spatial audio is relatively limited, but the possibilities are intriguing. Think of audio that can be mixed with this effect in mind from the start, so that actions like turning around open up elements of the mix you couldn’t hear as well when turned the other way. It can be really cool-all it requires is participation from filmmakers, game developers, and other content creators.

换句话说，空间音频相对有限，但是可能性令人着迷。 从一开始就考虑可以将这种效果混合在一起的音频，这样，诸如转身之类的动作就会打开您在相反方向转弯时听不到的混音元素。 它可能真的很酷-它所需要的只是电影制片人，游戏开发商和其他内容创作者的参与。

It’s easy to see why filmmakers might hesitate to use this as an embedded effect, as it can distract from the storyline. But games and apps, where the user is driving the narrative, seem ideal for this immersive technology, and it’s where we’ve seen it work in headsets like the HyperX Cloud Orbit S.

很容易理解为什么电影制作人可能会犹豫将其用作嵌入效果，因为它可能分散故事情节。 但是，由用户来驱动叙述的游戏和应用似乎是这项沉浸式技术的理想之选，而这正是我们已经看到它可以在HyperX Cloud Orbit S等头戴式耳机中使用的地方。

At this stage, spatial audio is more of a cool effect than a game changer, but who knows what the future holds? And it makes the AirPods Pro-already a PCMag Editors’ Choice-an even better buy.

在这个阶段，空间音频比改变游戏规则更酷，但是谁知道未来会怎样呢？ 而且，它使AirPods Pro已经成为PCMag编辑的选择-甚至是更好的选择。
