Now, this one, they've actually de-mixed, or else they've artfully played around with the original 3-channel recording. Sounds great.
(Does this mean Sony has finally given up on 360 RA, or is it in 360 on Tidal?)
Released July 15, 1963. Nice touch.

Watch the Netflix doc.
Before the cricket T20 Blast Finals day starts at 11am, I've been listening to this one ...very nice mix.
The AP SACD is the one I’m familiar with.
Not a huge production with Drums, Bass, Piano, Sax & Trumpet; so what channels are they using in the mix for each (somewhat discretely I’m guessing?)

maybe the beginning of the end of 360RA?
maybe they used Peter Jackson's process?
A lot of these 60’s era Jazz albums (2 & 3 channel) have the horns pinned wide to L or R; and even Penteo would do a nice job of it. I believe the way to tell if it’s been De-mixed or not, is if the horns are in the rears but also some drums are in the rears as well. Penteo tends to send some of the drums to the rears also. If on the other hand there’s mostly discrete instruments in the rears (& maybe Center), then I’d say a De-mix was used as well. I’m guessing the heights will be just room reverb ambience created.maybe they used Peter Jackson's process?
One can only pray it's the end.......maybe the beginning of the end of 360RA?
There are certainly positive trends toward Atmos as the winner of the spatial audio format war.maybe the beginning of the end of 360RA?
For example, both Pearl Jam and Britney Spears have had albums issued on 360RA on Tidal in the past and their most recent spatial audio offerings (Yield and Circus respectively) have been Atmos on Tidal.
I’d be curious to know if artists have any say in the matter, and if so, had Sony been making it financially advantageous to artists to allow 360RA.
Never listened to this album before. It’s a triumph both in artistry and mix 
Loving it.
Loving it.
Feels like Freedom is the best of the bunch in terms of the mix. A lot more going on all around and fidelity is great as well. Really enjoying all of them though. God I hope they're working on CSNY and CSN and Still's solo albums as well.
I think it’s going to be a Neil Young Dolby Atmos listening day today. I really think he did Dolby Atmos mixes of his best albums IMO. The only album of my favorites missing is Sleeps with Angels. What a surprise / treat this is. Listening in Apple Music.
Wham documentary highly recommended. What a great friendship story.
Gee they certainly extracted a heap of THC from this mix.
Makes me feel like I will fail a drug test from one listen.
There's some bleed between channels, but for the most part, I'm hearing:
- Miles hard-panned to the center, together with Carter's bass
- George Coleman on sax, right (wrapped/repeated at lower volume, possibly with a bit of reverb, right rear)
- Herbie or Victor Feldman on piano, left (and left rear, as above)
- Frank Butler or Tony Williams on drums, right (and right rear, as above)
- Room ambience in the heights
Speaking of Miles: Ethan Iverson reminds us that today is the Philly Joe Jones centenary. Not many ways to hear him in surround, but his discography is worth exploring in any format. And Steve Genewick gave Blue Train the Blue-Note-Atmos treatment, at least:
