Nugen Audio Halo Upmix + Stereoizer 3 (Digitálny produkt)

NUGEN Halo Upmix

Full control, intuitive ease

Halo Upmix offers unparalleled control for creating immersive soundscapes, from natural expansions to grand cinematic enhancements. Tailor your surround mix with precision, featuring unique center channel management and switchable dialog extraction, making it ideal for a variety of productions, including archive restoration, television, and full 7.1 feature films.

An optional 3D extension enhances your experience with Dolby Atmos bed track (7.1.2) and Auro 3D (7.1.4) compatibility, along with Ambisonic outputs.

The advanced algorithms of Halo Upmix ensure a natural and coherent spatial upmix, preserving the original audio's character without introducing artificial reverb, chorus, or delays.

Engaging the 'Exact' control allows you to maintain the integrity of the original source in the downmix, providing confidence in your audio production.

Natural extension

Utilizing powerful real-time analysis, Halo Upmix identifies and extracts locational cues from the original stereo material, naturally extending the audio panorama while keeping the source's inherent character intact.

Powerful spatial analysis

The software includes an intuitive spatial analysis view, visually representing the energy distribution of the upmixed panorama. Color coding indicates speaker sources for audio in various positions, clearly distinguishing between phantom and hard center predominance.

Downmix compatibility

Halo Upmix generates a coherent spatial sound, ensuring high-quality downmix results. The 'exact' mode function guarantees optimal downmix performance, crucial for applications like TV repurposing.

3D Immersive Extension (Not Included)

This optional extension introduces vertical controls through an expanded user interface, allowing for precise Ltm and Rtm placement for Dolby Atmos compatibility. It also features a real-time analysis view for the vertical dimension, showcasing energy distribution in the output audio. The enhanced upmix algorithm supports simultaneous use of all original features, including dialog isolation and individual channel output control.

The 3D Immersive Extension is versatile, suitable for sound design, film scoring, restoration, and atmospheric soundscape production.

For Television

As surround delivery becomes increasingly essential, Halo Upmix proves invaluable. With advanced controls, including neural network-powered dialog isolation, it streamlines workflows and enhances output quality effortlessly.

For Film & Sound Design

Halo is essential for upmixing original and vintage scores, extending capabilities to Dolby Atmos and Auro 3D with the 3D Immersive extension. It breathes life into sound design and score work, providing results that surpass traditional delay and panning techniques, all while ensuring downmix compatibility.

With optional Ambisonic format output, Halo Upmix excels in VR and game audio environments.

To suit almost any situation

Halo Upmix supports various upmixing formats, including LCR, 3.1, 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, 5.1, 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, and 7.1. The 3D Immersive Extension expands this to 7.1.2 and Ambisonic, compatible with Avid Pro Tools (AAX) and Steinberg Nuendo (VST3) for both Windows and OSX.

Stereoizer 3

Stereoizer is a unique stereo width plug-in that enhances your mix while ensuring it sounds great in mono. It adds natural width and depth to any recording, whether mono or stereo, preserving the source's character. You can choose to go super wide or maintain subtlety.

Achieve a polished and spatially balanced sound without artificial reverb, chorusing, or delay, ensuring total mono compatibility without unwanted artifacts.

Detailed stereo extension

Stereoizer's algorithms adapt to your audio characteristics using techniques based on human auditory perception. The IID (Interaural Intensity Difference), ITD (Interaural Time Difference), and Linear Width algorithms operate independently, offering maximum flexibility. Use the IID and ITD controls for lively adjustments, while the Linear Width control subtly enhances without disturbing the mix's center space.

Highly mono compatible

Mono compatibility remains crucial, especially as many sound systems are still set up for mono playback. Stereoizer avoids adding artificial reverberation, preventing disruptive artifacts like doubling or phase cancellation in mono signals. The 'Collapse output to mono' option allows for quick checks of mono compatibility.

For mixing and sound design

Use Stereoizer to introduce width to mono recordings or expand narrow stereo mixes. It enriches your recordings without relying on heavy EQ or compression, adding finesse and enhancing specific frequencies while maintaining the inherent balance of the sound.

For post production and restoration

Stereoizer is perfect for subtly enhancing ambient sounds, creating space for dialog, or injecting stereo liveliness into previously mono recordings. Whether restoring old tracks or optimizing new ones for louder playback, it allows for natural-sounding extrapolation of the stereo image, reintroducing lost ambience during production.

Stereo frequency analysis

The visual analysis feature of Stereoizer displays how your stereo field deviates from the center across frequencies from 20Hz to 22kHz, enabling frequency-conscious adjustments without needing a separate analysis plug-in.
