Introduction

For over twenty-five years, we have been providing support to opera houses, theaters, venues and studios during the implementation stage of the playback systems we design and supply. HOLOPHONIX is a cutting-edge platform designed for Live Sound Spatialization, Immersive Experiences and Active Acoustic Enhancement. It enables sound engineers and designers to mix, reverberate and spatialize sound contents from various various sources using multiple 2D and 3D spatialization techniques.

The system provides access to advanced 2D and 3D sound algorithms designed at IRCAM-based STMS Lab (Sciences et Technologies de la Musique et du Son) in Paris, supported by CNRS (National Center for Scientific Research), Sorbonne University, the French Ministry of Culture and IRCAM (Institut de Recherche et de Coordination Acoustique/Musique). Each input channel can be associated with various object types for true object-based mixing. Its powerful audio engine allows the user to select the rendering mode from eleven available algorithms, and integrate realistic 3D reverberation.

HOLOPHONIX Products

Depending on your workflow HOLOPHONIX is available in 3 formats :

Processor

The Processor version is a dedicated hardware designed for low-latency performance and high channel counts. It supports up to 128 inputs and outputs, with the option to upgrade to 512 channels via a hardware expansion.

Native

The Native version runs on macOS (10.15 and later) and works with any audio interface connected to your computer. It functions similarly to a Digital Audio Workstation, delivering the same high-quality rendering as the hardware version. The output count is limited to 16 channels, while input channels can reach up to 128, depending on your license.

Designer

The Designer version is a free software tool for simulating HOLOPHONIX Processor and Native setups. While it does not process audio, it allows users to prepare and share sessions efficiently.
