Choose the angle and distance: Introducing the Polar Pad
Transpanner 2 introduces a polar pad interface with a design of concentric circles that animate as you drag the virtual thumb.
Moving the thumb around the pad's center enables precise control over sound direction, allowing you to select any angle from 0 to 360 degrees.
Moving the thumb inward sends sounds into the distance, while dragging it outward brings them closer.
This intuitive and tactile method of 3D audio manipulation enhances user interaction in stereo mixing.
Psychoacoustic Wizardry: Behind the 3D Sound Illusion
When you adjust the controls in Transpanner 2, it tailors these sound wave properties in such a way that your brain is tricked into perceiving the sound as coming from different directions, including from behind you. This creates a 3D audio effect, enveloping you in a more lifelike and immersive sound environment, all from a stereo setup.
True to our commitment to the audio community, Transpanner 2 will remain donationware. Users are encouraged to support further development with contributions that reflect the value they find in the tool.
You will receive an installer for the Transpanner 2 VST3 and AU audio plugin.
