Mastering Immersive: Mix in our Atmos Rooms, on your Headphones.
Mastering Immersive: Mix in our Atmos Rooms, on your Headphones.
Our room. Your headphones.
Get measured once in our Dolby Atmos Premier-certified studio in Amsterdam. Then mix Atmos anywhere, in a calibrated copy of one of our rooms.
Only during ADE 2026, the measurement is free for self-producing artists, engineers and producers who are moving into Atmos but don't want to invest in a full immersive speaker setup and acoustic treatment (yet).For two days, our Atmos Mix Stage (Oct 22) and Atmos Music Room (Oct 23) are calibrated specifically for these measurements, with 32 sessions in total. After ADE, the rooms go back to work.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Measure: a free 30-minute session at STMPD studios. With small microphones in your ears, we build your personal profile of the room.
2. Mix: work in your own studio, on your own time, in the speaker layout of the room you were measured in.
3. Master: bring the mix back for mastering and QC to delivery spec, with a matching stereo master when you need one. Booked separately.
THE ROOMS
Studio 8, Mix Stage: Dolby Atmos 9.1.6
Studio 1B, Atmos Music Room: Dolby Atmos 7.1.4
Your profile is measured in one of these rooms, and that room is the one you hear at home.
WHAT YOU NEED
- Any pair of high-quality headphones. We advise the Sony MDR-MV1, which you can test and buy at the studio.
- Your own DAW and Atmos workflow. You route its output through the 360VME software.

Festival FAQ
ADE Festival tickets are sold individually by the festival event organizers, but you’ll also be able to purchase them through the ticket links on the event pages on our website here.
Not to worry! Make sure to contact the event (or their ticketing provider) you are visiting as soon as possible with as many details about your order; name, email address, amount of tickets, etc. Once they've recovered your order, the tickets can be resent to your email.
Need help to find your event's contact details? Message us at [email protected] and we'll be happy to help.
Most festival events have an age limit of 18+ (and sometimes even 21+ or 23+). These are Dutch governmental rules which state that below the age of 18 you are not allowed to enter a club.
Please double-check the promoter's or venue's website to be sure you can access the event!
Yes, the ADE Pro Pass grants you access to all ADE official festival events.
Be aware though that there are over 1,200 events during ADE that you can enter with the Pro Pass wristband and that ADE cannot guarantee access. There is a limited capacity that each venue can take into account for Pro Pass holders. This means for some of the more crowded events you have to arrive early. Once capacity is reached, we will go over in a full-for-now policy. The festival event organizer will decide when and if more people are allowed to go in.
The ADE Pro Pass is the perfect fit if you are planning on enjoying the combination of day and night events. If you want guaranteed access to a particular festival event, we advise you to get a single festival ticket instead.
We dance together, so please be mindful of yourself and each other. We expect an open attitude from our visitors towards other guests, regardless of their origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion and age. If you see or experience any unwanted attention, harassment or behavior of any kind that makes you uncomfortable, please speak out and notify staff.
Please keep in mind: we love being your annual host, therefore, we would like to ask you to enjoy yourself responsibly.
