Free & Premium Spatial Audio Production Software

aXMeter is an Ambisonic meter plugin that shows the RMS and peak levels of all the Ambisonic channels, up to tenth-order (121 channels). The channels for each order are grouped together for easy inspection. By default, aXMeter shows the channel levels up to third-order. If the input signal is of higher order, the plugin window will expand to reveal the gains for the higher order channels, keeping screen real-estate free when working with lower order. The aXMeter is ideal for checking signal levels between encoding with the aXPanner and decoding with the aXMonitor.

The EAR Production Suite (EPS) is a set of VST® plugins for digital audio workstations (DAWs) [SIC - REAPER ONLY] that enable sound engineers to produce immersive and personalizable content using the Audio Definition Model (ADM) format and to monitor it for any ITU-R BS.2051 loudspeaker configuration using the ITU ADM Renderer. ADM is the only format available for codec-agnostic Next Generation Audio (NGA) productions. Moreover, the EAR Production Suite enables professionals to import and export ADM files, compliant to the EBU ADM Production profile. The VST® plugins are currently optimized for the Reaper DAW, which features an extension interface that is used to import and export ADM files within a BW64 container. The EAR Production Suite was designed to demonstrate the intended use of the ADM in audio production workflows, so that the standards can be adopted in other professional tools in a consistent manner.
