Immersive Music app Like No Other.

Want to try something different from the 2D 180° or 360° music videos? Do you want to see the next level of 3D?

Download this app.

Being able to download and experience this app was truly worth it.

This app brings your singers, lecturers in front of you. Not only that but to make you experience them in real life size and walk around them, they truly feel the presence in the room. And Hey.. you get to experience the same in both VR and AR modes.

For the very first time, I get to walk around the singer and see the singer from all directions like a real person with me. I personally enjoy both settings VR and AR, but for some reason singers looked more real in the VR than in AR.

This app is one in a thousand apps that is a must-have if you own a VR headset. It is like when you need to download a rollercoaster app to try what it is like being in a rollercoaster 🎢, it's the same with Soapbox, you need to try it to experience it understand what it is like to watch music content in Soapbox. It is something new, different and I love it👌😎.

I wanna thank the support team for their great support I've got and their follow-ups with me, especially the one who was following up with me on X account🙏💐♥️.

The app is in its very early stages, but stable and easy to navigate through. The sky is the limit for applications of Soabbox and I can't wait for more content and new things and ideas they can do.

FANTASTIC IMMERSIVE CONCERT!

Soapbox impresses with the quality and realism of its holographic concerts. The performances, captured in volumetric video, offer a rare sense of presence.
A unique musical immersion with artists filmed in 360° volumetric video, captured via a 48-camera system, giving you the impression that they are physically appearing in your living room as stunningly realistic holograms.
The catalog is packed with diverse styles: from superstars like T-Pain and Buddy Guy to exclusive unreleased duets (like Tank and Aaliyah), and powerful performances by Norma Jean.
The interface is fluid, setup is simple, and the feeling of intimacy with the artist is sensational.
A truly immersive alternative to traditional concerts, it demonstrates how VR can revolutionize live music.
Several content items are free, while others cost around €3 per track.
Downloads are space-intensive (around 10 GB per song).
One of my best XR experiences!

This is perfect, but for a five-star rating, I think you should include:

1. The ability to use the app offline once the content has been downloaded, meaning you can open the app without an internet connection and enjoy the downloaded content.

Now, however, you still need to be connected to the internet to access the app, even if you've downloaded content.

3D sound, the most important thing of all! It should be so that when you get close to the singer, you hear the sound coming from their voice, and when you move away or turn left or right, you hear it far away to the right or left, respectively. In short, what's called 3D sound, which would add a lot of immersion!

Dynamic occlusion of the user's hands and arms, and of the environment in general, so you get a feeling of immersion and total fusion with the real environment. Dynamic occlusion uses less resources than you might think, so try it!

------

Update: I just made the update you released, thanks!
Honestly, for a moment I was under the illusion that it had reached dynamic occlusion and/or an offline mode to start the app offline to play content already downloaded.

As soon as I see it I can't wait to stay 5 stars! I'm not currently using the app much: I'm a big fan of dynamic occlusion!😃

Thank you for your commitment to constantly improve the app, I saw that you added new paid singers (but they don't really seem like my genre to be honest), maybe in the future there was a way to see a preview in a small window before being able to make the purchase? it would be easier to decide whether to make the purchase or not?

--------

Please... Please.... Please!... Add a Dynamic Occlusion!!!🙏🙏🙏 (On/off) ... Please!

pretty good but once you download a song, the app should be able to be used offline, which is not the case at the moment.

furthermore, to make this mixed reality experience truly complete you need dynamic occlusion, the way for example that your arms will be displayed in front or behind the 3D model depending on the distance you are at as well as the rest of the scene

you also have to keep the viewer on your head throughout the long process of downloading a video, otherwise the video won't load! this is rather useless and also annoying

Great Great, Great !!

This is the first step into the VR/MR future! WOW!

When this becomes advanced and the holograms become better quality, it would be an epic future experience.

However for now trying to be more creative with what currently available helps, also more famous artists would be epic experience.

Great concept

A great concept but needs the content to hopefully flow quick to keep people wanting to come back.

At the moment its a bit frustrating having to keep coming back to see either no new ones added or artists you have no idea who they are and don't want to chance paying for something you then won't like.

Defo needs a free sample for every artist, even if just 15 seconds of one of there tracks to get a feel if irs something that you then want to pay for.

At the mo its defo in my selection to demo what Mixed Reality can really be used for.
