spatial audio

For people placing sound in a room, from a 7.1.4 layout to a ring of speakers built by hand. Sending objects to a cinema renderer is not built yet.

sounds in space

Each sound carries a position, and the patch plays it out through the speakers the room has.

A patch runs on a computer with no screen or keyboard, and the rest of the rig is checked from another machine.

Machines on one network join the same room, keep the same tempo and report how they are running.

A patch keeps time from its own clock, from another app or from no clock at all, and parts of it can keep different time.

A finished patch goes to someone else as a plugin, a link that plays in the browser, or a box they plug in.
