The latest version of RIME brings a whole host of new surround and immersive audio-focused features to users of Neumann’s NDH 20 and NDH 30 headphones.

Neumann's new Apple Vision Pro App offers a way for users to see, touch and move immersive audio objects in a three-dimensional space.
These audio files accompany the Pop Vocal Mixing article in SOS November 2025. The song featured in these examples is 'April Blues', by the artist Moni Blue.

American‑born producer, engineer and mixer Dave Sardy has worked with household names including Bush, Johnny Cash, Oasis and The Who. A favourite sound from his impressive discography is the guitar drone on ‘(Get Off Your) High Horse Lady’ from Oasis’ 2008 album Dig Out Your Soul.

Recording a band live in the room is always a challenge — especially when it’s led by a jazz legend who switches instruments without warning!

Not everyone can afford a 7.1.4 Neumann speaker setup, but perhaps RIME is the next best thing?

Neumann have announced the release of a new plug-in that allows users of their NDH headphones to monitor immersive audio formats such as Dolby Atmos.

From his Sheffield recording studio Yellow Arch, producer, musician, arranger and programmer Colin Elliot has worked with an illustrious list of musical artists.

Neumann have joined forces with Merging to create an interface that’s both excellent and accessible.
