I am looking for a tool/technique which would enable me spatialise diffenent sine waves across a (circular) 24-channel system in various speeds. This is not to be done live, but using playback of pre-recorded samples. Unfortunately I have no access to the system and have to prepare the materials using a minimal stereo setup. Is there a plugin or workflow which I could use for this? Any recommendations?

Ideally I would want something that would show me graphical representation of the different channels and allow me to design what will be heard on each channel and for how long, etc. I would then need to export each channel as a separate track.

Thanks!

I don't understand exactly what you're looking after, but you can route each sample/vst/live instrument on different channels in any standard DAW mixer.

For example, you have 24 different sine waves samples:

  1. Assign each one of the 24 sines on 24 different channels
  2. Manualy pan each channel as you wish , until the resulting stereo sound fits your expectations

And additionally,

Insert on the Master Channel, a Sound Imager Plug-in (Ex:Izotope 5 Sound Imager) , wich gives you the ability to stereoize and give more space for the master output. (Optionally, you can insert this kind of plug-in on each individual channel, depending on your preferences).

But as I said, not knowing exactly what you're aiming for, this is all i can think of.

I hope it helps you somehow, Alex

Note: For the Stereo Imager plug-in to work, the Sample(s) must be Stereo tracks. Check this out

Check out REAPER. Its surround tool should be able to do exactly what you're after.

Fully functioning demo free from their site and if you like it, it's only $60 to buy!

  • Possible with all of the DAWs you mentioned! Jul 11, 2014 at 16:25
