Walking Cities Japan
Embark on a 3D audio Soundwalk with Walking Cities, designed to enhance your natural listening skills through a rich auditory immersion.
The soundwalks capture the distinct energy and sonic identity of Japan, transporting you through bustling streets, vibrant squares, and tranquil bridges — all from the comfort of your headphones.
Utilizing advanced Binaural 3D recording techniques, each 3D audio soundwalk is crafted to offer a realistic, multidimensional listening experience that mirrors the act of exploring urban landscapes on foot.
Recording techniques and sonic identity
By simulating the experience of walking through diverse urban environments, Walking Cities uses Binaural 3D Audio recording techniques to deliver a first-person auditory experience. Most recordings are static meaning the microphone is set up in one place.
This recording is made by actively walking the city. Giving you the feeling you are walking there yourself and capturing the real sonic identity of Japan.
Discover the different sonic identities of all the different hot spots of Japan, listen to all the chit-chatting and the different languages, and feel people walking past you or you walking past them.
The Ambient Textures version of Walking Cities combines immersive urban sounds with evolving ambient pads, offering a listening experience that invites calmness and reflection.
"The soundscape of a city, shaped by technological progress and urban dynamics, holds a profound influence on our cognitive experience and makes it possible to really experience a city via listening."

WHAT is the right AUDIO FORMAT for me?
Compatibility:
Headphones or earbuds (requires a playback device)
Device that supports MP3 or FLAC playback through headphones or earbuds
XR and VR devices that allow local playback of MP3 and FLAC files
For listening our content with headphones or hearables the audio formats are two : FLAC and MP3.
FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is a compressed audio format that differs from traditional lossy compression methods. Unlike formats like MP3 or AAC, FLAC is a lossless compression, meaning it retains all the original audio data during compression without sacrificing quality. The compression in FLAC is achieved by encoding redundant data more efficiently rather than discarding it.
MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3) format is a widely used audio file format that employs lossy audio compression to reduce the file size while maintaining a good level of sound quality. It was developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) and has become the de facto standard for online digital music files.
Compatibility:
Home Theaters (Optimal use case)
Soundbars & Smart Speakers (Check format compatibility)
PC, Laptops, Tablets & Gaming Consoles (Check format compatibility)
*Check the device specifications to confirm TrueHD support.
TrueHD with Dolby Atmos requires compatible audio and video devices for full utilization. This includes Blu-ray players, AV receivers, soundbars, and home theater systems that support Dolby Atmos and TrueHD.
Many modern media streamers from popular brands such as Nvidia Tv Shield, Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and others often support the “audio passthrough” feature to allow the unaltered transmission of audio to your external audio system.
It is advisable to check the product specifications or device settings to confirm the presence of this function.
MKV (Matroska)
The MKV (Matroska) format is a versatile and open multimedia container well-suited for high-quality audio and video. It is compatible with advanced codecs like Dolby TrueHD, commonly associated with Dolby Atmos.
Some content in our catalog also includes video in 4K resolution, combined with Dolby Atmos TrueHD.
Compatibility:
Soundbars & Smart Speakers
PC, Laptops, Tablets & Gaming Consoles
Home Theaters

•Soundbars and home theater systems for advanced surround sound.
•Smart speakers and portable devices, including gaming consoles.
•Tablets and PCs/laptops, with support available via media players like VLC or Apple Music.
Dolby Atmos Virtualization for Headphones:
MP4 with Dolby Atmos DD+ also enables spatialized audio playback through standard stereo headphones, thanks to the headphone virtualization feature.
•It’s an ideal solution for consumer devices such as tablets, laptops, or smartphones that support Dolby Atmos.
Tablets and Smartphones:
Compatible tablets and smartphones can leverage Dolby Atmos virtualization for headphones without requiring external devices or complex setups. Apps like Apple Music or VLC provide Dolby Atmos rendering directly on the device.
Compatibility:
Game Developers & 360 Video Makers
Ambisonic format is commonly used in immersive audio productions, such as 360-degree videos, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR). Its spherical representation offers an engaging and realistic sound experience.
the Ambisonic format is designed to provide a comprehensive and three-dimensional audio representation, making it suitable for a wide range of immersive and professional applications.
Ambisonic orders refer to the number of microphone capsules in a spherical array used to capture three-dimensional audio. Increasing the order adds more capsules, enhancing precision in spatial audio recording.
For our content, we use both first-order and third-order ambisonics, depending on various factors such as the intended level of spatial accuracy, the playback environment, and the specific requirements of each project.
