Within living memory, hit records were mixed in mono, and stereo was considered nothing more than a novelty or curiosity.
Now almost anyone can listen to Dolby Atmos and other immersive formats in the comfort of their home! Immersive music is much more than a novelty and much more than a curiosity – but mixing music in 7.1.2 or more channels when you’re used to working in stereo, it’s easy to find yourself adrift.
To make creating music in immersive that much easier NUGEN Audio are offering 30% off some of their best plug-ins.

Via re-synthesis, Paragon offers full control of the decay, room size and brightness of reverbs modelled on 3D recordings of real spaces – with no time-stretching, which means no artefacts – not to mention spectral analysis and precise EQ of the Impulse Responses themselves.

ISL
Mastering & post production
ISL is a transparent look-ahead limiter designed to allow you to get on with creative audio production while it takes care of True Peak compliance for you.ISL uses the standardised True Peak algorithms of ITU-R B.S. 1770 and related standards (including Apple ‘afclip’ True Peak detection), and is suitable for the control of audio for post production, music mastering and broadcast applications. True Peak limiting can also be used to ensure that downstream codecs (mp3, AAC etc.) do not introduce distortion into the signal.
