Sound Particles Space Controller Studio Immersive Sound Panning Plug-In (Educational)

Panning in immersive formats just got a lot easier and more fun thanks to Space Controller from Sound Particles, an exceptionally innovative and intuitive plug-in and mobile device app that lets you create sophisticated panning effects in virtually any sound format with simple movements of a smart device. Using your mobile device and its motion sensors, you can simply point to your intended speaker, or manually move sounds around in a virtual space like a traditional panner, to create captivating and complex panning effects.

Control Panning with The Palm of Your Hand

By connecting a mobile device and its motion sensors with any DAW, this patent pending technology offers a highly efficient and intuitive way to control sounds with the palm of your hand. Every movement you can imagine is now possible, easier than ever—and just a touch away.

Stereo, Multichannel, and Immersive Support

From stereo to 5.1, HOA to Binaural, and 7.1 to Dolby Atmos, Space Controller provides several output options for the panner:

Stereo, Stereo XY, Stereo MS, and Stereo Blumlein

Binaural

LCR and LCRS

Quad (4.0)

5.0 and 5.1

7.0 and 7.1

9.0 and 9.1

5.0.2, 5.1.2, 5.0.4, and 5.1.4

7.0.2, 7.1.2, 7.0.4, 7.1.4, and 7.0.6

Cube and Sphere Modes

If you are working with Ambisonics, VR, or other sphere-related workflows, the Sphere Mode is perfect for you. If you prefer a more traditional approach, the Cube Mode is the one for which you're looking.

Channels

Space Controller allows you to control sound as: a single mono source, independent channels, rotating entire soundfields, or mirrorlike approaches. The plug-in gives you the best accuracy and smoothness to control exactly where you want sounds to go.

Tracks

It is possible to either use the same mobile device to control multiple tracks or use multiple mobile devices to control different channels. Imagine using two devices at the same time—one for the left channel and another for the right channel. The more devices, the more fun.

Panner

The Space Controller plug-in and all the features it offers allow for absolute spatial freedom. Even without the mobile device and the app, it is still possible to use Space Controller as a regular 3D panner plug-in.

Communication

Use Bluetooth to easily connect the mobile app to any system with minimum effort. In the case of professional studios with computers located in different rooms, it is advisable to use the Wi-Fi connection for seamless workflows.

Size

Space Controller allows changing the size of sources, which will control the width of each sound. Higher sizes will make a sound reach for more speakers.

Locks

It is possible to individually hold each position-related parameter either as coordinates in Cube mode or angles in Sphere.

Independent Input/Output

Space Controller enables you to choose both the input and output formats independently of each other and to mute certain input and output channels within each format.

Multiple Views

It is possible to select between top and rear views to get consistent visual cues of where the sound is being placed.

iPod Support

Do you want a cheap dedicated controller for your studio? You can use an iPod touch instead of a mobile phone.
