"Every time we step forward with imagery and sound in the theater, we are provided a greater palette for the creativity of the filmmakers. I think most sound mixers will be fascinated and enjoy this technology."

Recording engineer Stanley Johnston in The Hollywood Reporter, October 2008
"Through the precise interplay of cutting-edge technology, this unique cinematic adventure for all the senses lets visitors to the 4D Adventure Cinema [at Bavaria Filmstadt] feel part of this extraordinary story. The brilliant 3D imagery is close enough to touch, the seats move on six axes, and the groundbreaking IOSONO 3D sound system produces sounds that fill the room so that even the ears are engrossed in the experience."
Attractions Management, Q4 2007

"This is astounding. ... They took sounds right through my head. It was chilling."

"If you asked me eight days ago if I could imagine directors changing the way they direct movies to accommodate this technology, I'd have said no, but after some hands-on time, my answer is yes."
Recording engineer Stanley Johnston in WIRED online, July 2004
"Forget Dolby Surround, German researchers are creating the three-dimensional sound experience."
DIE ZEIT, February 12, 2004
