New Free Plugin Brings Effortless 360 Spatial Audio Panning
The latest version of the free Transpanner plugin, Transpanner 2, builds on the original by introducing a polar pad interface and improved processing.
Offering an advanced panning solution is the newest release from Artists in DSP – a free plugin named Transpanner 2. Employing psychoacoustic techniques grounded in transmural and ambisonic processing, Transpanner 2 seeks to recreate the immersive quality of a surround speaker system through stereo monitors. With this plugin, users can pan any signal seamlessly across a full 360 degrees, similar to spatial audio. Upon launching, users are prompted to calibrate Transpanner 2 to their specific monitor setup, as shown in the accompanying video. This version features a redesigned XY interface centered around concentric circles called the Polar Pad.
Transpanner 2 is currently accessible in VST3/AU formats. As donationware, the plugin is free to download from Artists in DSP, who graciously accept donations if you find their work valuable and wish to contribute. Click here for Artists in DSP’s website.
