You
will find in this section the Open Channels and Direct Channels
Acousmodules, from which most Regular and SpatStruments are derived. They
almost all operate in 64 channels, but a number are also available
in lesser 36 channels and higher, up to 128 channels. For users, the main difference between
"Regular"
and "Advanced" versions is that the spatial layout here
is totally free, while in Regular it is fixed according to the Nodal-61
format. In
general, Open Channels versions require some more work to
be operated,
since the Distance Based Amplitude Control algorithm
they are built on is optimized for equidistant 3D meshes, and works
less easily for hollow spaces such as domes and cinema formats. Since these
plugins are numerous, they are grouped
in four pages, classified by category: Spatialization,
Effects,
Sampling
and Synthesis. If you are lost,
read "The
composer's guide to the Acousmodules' galaxy"! Note for Mac users: existing Advanced Open Channels acousmodules will continue to be available and free, and must continue to work on older systems without restriction. However, they will be updated only on demand and at a low cost. Thank you for your understanding. |
