3DPanner Studio Updated to Version 1.1
August 25, 2001
Spin Audio's 1.1 release of 3DPanner Studio adds on-fly HRTF set reloading, gain control and comes with new unified interface and
new improved default HRTF set.
3DPanner Studio is an audio plugin available in VST and DX formats that allows to enhance your
host application with a powerful 3D Positional Audio engine, so that you will be able to place your
audio tracks in a 3D space around your head and arrange them within a single window.
The update includes two much anticipated features: on-fly HRTF set reloading and separate gain
control for every HRTF set. Now there is no need to reload the whole project when a new HRTF set is
selected, it's reloaded immediately, even without stopping sound processing. The separate gain
control allows to adjust gain of every HRTF set, so that switching between different sets wont lead to
overall project volume change.
3DPanner Studio is now shipped with the improved default HRTF set that provides "flatter" frequency
response and includes two more short length subsets. However users who would like to use the old
HRTF set can download it from SpinAudio web site along with two more alternatives.
The default skin has been also changed in order to make it conform with the new unified SpinAudio
plugin line design. The old default skin is available on skins page of SpinAudio web site.
This release also fixes some bugs found the first version of the product.
New features:
- On-fly HRTF set reloading
- Separate gain control on every HRTF set
- Redesigned default skin
- Improved default HRTF set
Bug fixes:
- The plugin now handles on-fly sample rate change
- The source icons in the positional area don't flicker any more when any other icon is dragged by mouse
- The custom label font size typed by keyboard is stored correctly
- The edit boxes are now aligned according to skin settings
Here below is a screenshot of the new plugin default skin.
