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.

Fantastic app, really gives the impression that the artist is right in the room with you, well done to the developers. I've found that using it with Quest Game Optimizer really helps to increase the resolution.

Some suggestions:

1) Some of the acts have some artifacts that could do with a bit of a tidy up, this is particularly noticeable around the feet area. "Aaron Gibson - Real Bad Timing" also has some artifacts that are several feet in front of him on the floor.

2) I've noticed that some of the artists can really appear to look into your eyes if I position them correctly but it takes a bit of experimenting to get them into the right position. It would be good if when you are recording, that the artists have a particular primary camera that they can concentrate on looking into the most (not all the time but for the most part). Then you could add an option/button to have the artist reorient to face you (as if the viewer were in primary camera position), this could really give the impression that they are singing directly to you. You could possibly also have them automatically follow your headset position in realtime, however I think that might look a little odd as they would be constantly spinning around on the spot as you move, better to just have them reorient on a button press.

3) Positional audio, having the audio emanating directly from the artist's position would be great, so that when we turn our head or move, the positional audio would reflect the change in our position.

4) Alpha transparent shadows under the artist. Since you have a 3D model of the artist, perhaps it might be possible for you to create a real time diffuse transparent shadow effect on our floor in mixed reality.

5) Real time lighting effects, it would be nice if we could create our own lighting on the artist, position a directional spotlight for instance or even simply make adjustments to the brightness of the artist so that it more closely managed our mixed reality environment.

Is very good, but with high quality captures comes high GB files dimensions.
Not sure if better compression can be achieved, but right now a single download take a fair bit of time and occupy a lot of space, so be mindful of your memory space, especially if like me you use the 128GB Quest 3 model.

Also some artist are not accessible for me, i see a "!" and can't download. And is the majority of them unfortunally.

Can we not have performers we know never heard of any these performers ...
But great app love it ❤️ Just wish could have James blunt or bring back
Elvis Presley 🤣
Amaze VR has
Lara Larsson fantastic 😍

Only just seen a post advertising this and had to immediately check it out as been in the music seen performing for over 15 years.

Such a great concept, especially using the Mixed Reality and having your own show in your house!

But a few negatives..

1. It needs way more content, hopefully it comes fast and not 1 or 2 every few weeks as otherwise it isnt worth sticking around waiting.

2. For some reason your not able to point at the bar to move the menu with the controller and move it from a distance, you have to go over and grab it touching the controller to the bar. A small issue but a frustrating one.

3. Let you fabourite ones youve downloaded! , and then even ones not downloaded so you could favourite ones that are coming soon!

Other then that its worth a look for sure it just really needs content. I selected into them all and most are coming soon which is pretty rubbish.

Hopefully it changes

UPDATE MONTHS LATER -

So starting to feel like its a scam, im pretty sure since i first downloaded it nothing has been added, coming soon are all still coming soon with not even a date to say when so could be soon in 10 months time???

A little bit of transparency would be nice instead of coming back and seeing nothing has changed.

This app is amazing, the only problem is the lack of a wide range of content for all audiences.. it seems like this is made soley for black culture almost exclusively.
