Through this module series, you'll learn how to use the Microsoft Spatializer plugin to add spatial audio to your app. Spatial audio is a way of creating sound in 360 degrees around a listener. Sound can come from any place in a sphere. It takes two forms: binaural and object-based. Binaural sound is used in headphones. Object-based sound is for television, radio, and loudspeaker listening.

You can find a completed example of this tutorial here.
