Vortex Surround Plug-ins (VSP) are multi-channel sound file creation tools designed to integrate seamlessly with the most popular standard VST hosts, such as Ableton Live and others. VSP incorporates many of the features of our VSM and VSD products into an intuitive and easy to use package that will have you expanding your work into surround sound within minutes. The clear and sensible interface reveals depth, subtlety and creative power to perfectly complement your familiar host application. Like our other products, VSP allows the user to build complex surround mixes using libraries of preset or custom-designed spatial motion paths, and will incorporate features never before seen in commercial mixing or performance applications, such as algorithmic mixing (chaotic, non-linear, flocking, etc.) and spatial looping tightly synchronized with the client transport. Future updates will support real-time control via an assortment of USB and MIDI controllers.

    VSP Features:

  • The most creative and powerful plugin tool for generating innovative, startling, and original surround effects and multi-channel samples.
  • Works with any VST host and interface capable of outputting multi-channel audio.
  • Spatialize 8 or more input channels at once to surround sound outputs.
  • Supports 4.0, 5.1, 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, 7.1, and 8.0 speaker configurations.
  • Transparently change output configurations without having reprogram paths or processing controls.
  • Sophisticated loop-based mixing, effects, and spatial path control. All parameters infinitely scalable and tweakable for stunning new surround effects.
  • Innovative plug-in structure allows Cycling74 MaxMSP and Jitter patches to be used as control, audio, or image processing expansions/
  • Integrates seamlessly with your mixing engine or IMR multi-channel file players to combine up to 12 multi-channel files (60 or more channels, depending on processor and disk speed).
  • Built-in sound path designer and library of stored paths.
  • Quick and powerful sound path variations for maximum editing precision.
  • Sophisticated built-in perceptual spatial processor for every VSP channel.
  • Spatial motion cues include Pitch (Doppler shift), Amplitude, Reverberation, Distance, Phase, Phase Envelope, X and Y amplitude and offset, and acceleration/decelleration/timewarp.
