Compatibility Notes
*This product is compatible with any major DAW in mono/stereo mode, for multichannel signals, a compatible decoder and DAW should be used. We recommend you check our ‘ab Decoder Suite’ or our ‘ab Decoder HOA’!
*This product is compatible with Ambisonics Signals from 1OA to 7OA, the highest Ambisonics order possible depends on the DAW support.
For working in Stereo, this product is compatible with all major DAWs.
For working in Spatial/Immersive/Ambisonics Audio, this product is compatible with the DAWs below:
Pro Tools Studio | Pro Tools Ultimate
Cubase Pro 12+ | Nuendo 12+
Logic Pro X
Studio One 6.5+
Reaper 6+
MaxMSP
DaVinci Resolve Studio 18.5+
* AAX works in any Ambisonics Order up to 7OA in Pro Tools Ultimate 2023.6 and above. As of today, the other versions of Pro Tools are still limited to 3OA.
* VST3 is a tricky one! As the VST3.7.8 SDK slowly expands through all DAWs, some DAWs might still not be compatible with tracks above 16 channels, so while our plugins are ready, each developer might adapt their DAW at different timings.
For Reaper (latest version as of today), if you stick to either 4-channel (1OA), 16-channel tracks (3OA) or 64-channel tracks (7OA), everything should work perfectly fine!
For Max and Max For Live, up to 16-channel tracks (3OA) are currently supported.
For Resolve, up to 16-channel tracks (3OA) are currently supported (through a Dolby Atmos 9.1.6 track).
For Presonus Studio One, up to 16-channel tracks (3OA) are currently supported (through a 9.1.6 Track).
For Nuendo/Cubase Pro, up to 3OA tracks are supported.
* AU is still limited to 1OA due to Logic’s own limitations, sadly.
