Audio Brewers has released a new plugin designed to manage the dominance, size, and upscale any signal to 3rd Order Ambisonics.
Designed with a plug-and-play mentality, ab Imager offers an advanced way to reshape, resize and enhance your Ambisonics signals.
With ab Imager, you are in complete control. Tailor the Dominance of your signal with precision, allowing you to fine-tune the balance between immersive realism and artistic expression. Whether you desire a subtle enhancement or a bold transformation, ab Imager empowers you to shape the auditory landscape according to your creative vision.
But that’s not all. Harness the power of the spatial imager in ways never imagined before. Expand your soundstage and give your ambisonics recordings a wider, taller, and longer presence, effortlessly extending the boundaries of your sonic canvas. Alternatively, if subtlety is your preference, you can shrink the spatial imager, creating a narrower, lower, and more intimate soundstage that envelops the listener in a cocoon of sonic bliss.
With ab Imager, we are also introducing a groundbreaking new Upscaler* that will enhance any 1st or 2nd order Ambisonics signals to 3rd Order. The Upscaler was designed to work fast so as to be compatible with the Dolby Atmos requirements (Buffer Size of 512 Samples), and to be completely automatic – meaning it will always be in standby mode, and as soon as a 1st or 2nd Order Ambisonics signals go through, it’ll kick in to enhance them and increase their quality. Unlock the true potential of your ambisonics recordings with enhanced spatial resolution and an unparalleled sense of depth.
Available in VST3, AU and AAX formats for Windows and Mac, ab Imager is on sale for the intro price of 69 EUR until June 26th, 2023 (regular 89 EUR). The ab Imager Express edition without the upscaler is 29 EUR.
