You can use 3D audio to enhance the immersiveness of your XR game or application. 3D audio goes beyond typical stereo or multi-speaker audio setups that change only the relative volume of point audio sources in each speaker.

An ambisonic decoder plug-in decodes specially recorded ambisonic audio. You often use ambisonic encoding for ambient sound sources, sometimes called an audio skybox.

You can use both spatializer and ambisonic decoder plug-ins outside of VR applications, although they might not have the same fidelity without head tracking.
