Sound Particles have just released an update that adds a new Metadata Automation function to their their recently launched Beat Panner plug-in, which makes it possible to copy the ‘movement’ generated by the plug-in and apply it to object-based tracks in immersive sessions.
Beat Panner has already become a popular tool among mixers and producers thanks to its ability to create intricate beat-synced panning patterns using an intuitive sequencer-based interface. With the launch of version 1.1, the plug-in is now equipped with a function that allows its panning movements to be exported as metadata that can be pasted onto an object-based track in a DAW session, allowing them to instantly replicates the tempo-sync’ed movement created by Beat Panner.
Key Features
- Faster Object-based Workflows: Convert the rich movements of Beat Panner into objects, in a fast way.
- Full Creative Control Retained: Once pasted, the automation is fully editable inside Objects Tracks, so users can refine, blend or layer it with other spatial elements.
- Bridges Rhythm And Space: Connects Beat Panner's rhythm-driven design with the precision and flexibility of object-based mixing, ideal for immersive music, cinema and game audio.
- Zero Cost To Existing Users: Beat Panner 1.1 is a free update for all current Beat Panner owners.
