What was interesting is that they were discussing that audio will be processed using the GPU using ray tracing algorithms for more 3d sound. As I understand it the Ray Tracing algorithms are used for light and color reflection using sound with that type of processing would allow for directional sound reflected against environmental elements of different reflectivity, creating a environmental reverb and the ability to 360 place sounds in the environment.Cool cool stuff.I've come across a couple of articles that suggest that the next generation of the XBox may very well be more powerful than the Playstation 5.Just trying to wrap my brain around that winds up making me feel old.ray tracing isn't that bad! I had to implement it in a simulator I worked on and I'm a moron. but that's just badass to use it for sound and crunch on the gpu
