Listen to auralizations
Auralizations (or auralisations) are simulations of audio signals as would be heard in virtual room model, with its acoustics.
The first video showcases examples we have here in our website, and further below are videos showing how to set up your own auralizations in ODEON.

Soundscape App
ODEON 18 introduces the Soundscape App, a web app generated from your model, containing all your convolutions and mixes. You can switch between signals, sources, receivers, and material setups in real time. It can be shared to, and used by, people who don’t own ODEON, such as your clients.

Realistic crowd auralizations with a single speech audio
Simulating a realistic crowd typically requires several speech sources with varying pitch, spectrum, etc. But with ODEON’s AudioFX tool, you can take a single speech signal, and generate many speech signals with slightly varying characteristics. Then, you can select all of these files and ODEON will automatically set up a complex auralization with many sources. Auralizations and the AudioFX tool are a feature of the Auditorium and Combined editions of ODEON.

Simulating a full section from a single recording
Using the AudioFX tool in ODEON you can make auralizations of a full violin section from just one audio source, sounding truly like different instruments and musicians. This video goes through the difference in sound with and without using the Audio FX tool, how you make one audio source into multiple, and how to set up a group of eg. violins based on the audio files made by the Audio FXs tool.
