Willits’ pioneering work with Envelop and immersive audio creates the ideal listening space. With 4-8 speakers surrounding the audience. Christopher’s music takes on a new dimension, immersing the listener from all directions. Immersive audio sets have accompanying visuals when technically feasible. Speakers/amps can be backlined or contracting Envelop for a pop-up can be an option.
