Isn’t this a part of 360 virtual sounds by Sony ?Me on the other hand have been experimenting with every phase trick under the sun to create multichannel sound from stereo tracks programmatically. Wanna try?
Don't ask me to monetize my work, I'm too dumb and tired to try

I can't even give this stuff away for free if they're not serious about trying it and they have a suitable PC platform, hence the question.
No, but these disks don’t have a 5.1 track, so the Atmos fold down is the one I can use. But it seems that they didn’t have multitrack masters to mix from, so they EQed the elements out to separate them. The surround on the Dolby Stereo sounded better.
Well if it has an Atmos track, then that's the one that's also multitrack mix. The standards now are that Atmos on streaming is Dolby Digital+ 5.1 and the Atmos positional metadata (so older HDMI receivers will not recognize the Atmos stream and see DD+). There are more UHD blu-ray discs with Dolby Atmos tracks, but there are also some HD blu-rays with Atmos. With them, their core is usually a core TrueHD 7.1 channel setup with Atmos metadata.
You're quick to write him off for his member of the trade card. Instead of getting caught up in cables/dacs/amps dont make a difference kind of posts for the nth time, he makes actually useful posts such as this or this. Here's some more evidence of his DSP wizardry. Anyways, he's definitely not posting here to sell you DAPs.
Got it now...it's good to have those options. Have found that besides the Police blu-ray I have, other concerts surround tracks sound better. Since you mention the Prince disc also has Auro3D, is it Sign O The Times? I might try seeing if I can pick it up just to see what an encode of it sounds like. I'm now usually defaulting to DTS:Neural as my 3D matrix format when playing 5.1 surround sources (but will sometimes switch to stereo with some old mono movies). It and Dolby's matrix 3D will make use of all 7.1.4 channels I have. If I do make it a point to try cycling between Dolby, DTS, and Auro3D with sources, sometimes the Auro3D sounds better and might have more heights (but it also goes to 5.1.4).
I would think it safe to assume most every disc advertising multichannel sound is a track that was remixed in surround. But the matrixing for a stereo track to multichannel on a home receiver has gotten pretty convincing. Or also getting height effects off a 5.1 track if you have a 3D receiver (I noticed that when I upgraded my speaker system and heard helicopter chopper blades on top of me from a 5.1 track). With a stereo track, I do get some ambience around me (probably not as much distinct sounds in back of me as a surround track would have). Most surround receivers now have the Dolby Surround matrix technology, and DTS: Neural. Some also have Auro (which is a European company that has had some more sources there...there's not much of any in Auro tracks in the US).
New A/V receivers don't have Dolby Pro Logic (II). To make things more confusing, "Dolby Surround" is the new surround matrix. (that will matrix to height channels as well). DTS:Neural is the DTS equivalent. When I watch that Police concert, I will matrix to DTS:Neural. My receiver's display is pretty nice for checking source: it will display Multi-Chanel, TrueHD, DD+. DTS-MA, etc + DTS:Neural:X or Dolby Surround depending on what surround mode I've got set (if it's a Dolby Atmos track, then it will just decode that and just show that....also DTS:X). If the source is stereo, then it just displays DTS:Neural:X or Dolby Surround. I can also see the complete number of channels and source format if I use its app on my phone.
