Dear Reality is evolving


Overview

Welcome to the new home of Dear Reality within the Sennheiser Group

Since Dear Reality started more than 10 years ago and joined the Sennheiser Group in 2019, Immersive Audio has become an essential part of the professional audio industry.
To better leverage future potentials, we are currently consolidating all Immersive Audio initiatives within the Sennheiser Group.
As part of this process, Dear Reality will no longer continue as an independent company.
 
What does this mean for you? Dear Reality products will no longer be developed or maintained, and their licenses will be deactivated on July 31, 2025.
 
We will make most Dear Reality plugins available free of charge here. They can be downloaded and used without restriction upon registration for the Sennheiser AMBEO newsletter below.
 
Do you need support? During the transition period between March 25, 2025 to July 31, 2025, support will be available at support@dear-reality.com to assist you with any questions or concerns.
