Ive never put this much time into shooting a UKposts video. I feel like 7.1.4 (12 channel) atmos is one of the coolest audio experiences I've had and really strongly felt like I needed to find a way to make atmos cheaper and affordable. Im sure you guys can find ways to do this even more efficiently as time goes on. I just hope people can discover this and use it to enjoy music.

This is my absolute favorite kind of thing to see. Reminds me of the time I heard the best thing in audio ever: having my first 5.1 setup and hearing Linkin Park's Reanimation in DVD-Audio and also BT's This Binary Universe in DVD-Audio (DTS mix). Still so mindblowing to me back in like 2006. I can't wait to have my mind blown like that again in the future :)

I feel you, when I first started doing Serious Car Audio the right way. I spent so much time reading, researching and ultimately practicing. I say that because I'd have to redo some part of the portion I had just completed. When I say Car Audio System I mean the complete system from the power to wiring, components, speaker's, sound stage, sound deadening materials, boxes, baffles, amp racks. Then tuning it all with the reconstructed bass and full range of sound from 20 to 20K hertz. Congratulations and thank you for your dedication and effort. 💯

I was concerned for how my interface would work with MacOS and understanding that my interface has 16 channels and I want to run 12 with Apple Music. This might have saved me some hassle into figuring out why it doesn't work in the future. The interface is on it's way, and if I have any issues, I am hoping that software will be my solution!!
