Ircam Spat v3 - The complete Room Acoustics Simulation and Localisation Solution
[ AU 32 & 64 bit | VST 32 & 64 bit | AAX Native 32 & 64 bit* ]
The Immersive Audio Revolution
SPAT Revolution, the most comprehensive real-time 3D-audio mixing engine ever designed, provide artists, sound-designers and sound-engineers the possibility to control the position of audio-sources in a three-dimensional environment, add room effects, send the result to a loudspeaker setup or a pair of normal stereophonic headphones, or export the result as audio stems to use in any other audio engine.
With a solid modular object based concept, the ability to specify and automate the spatialization parameters independently of the output format, support for different types of hardware and software inputs/outputs with network support for audio and automation (using Open Sound Control), innovative 3D-audio signal visualization modes and precise signal level control, it provides a flexible, efficient and creatively inspiring working environment designed to preserve emphasis on simplicity and ergonomics.
Workflow Integration
Created for audio professionals, within the fields of audio mixing, post-production, sound design, VR-engine audio, computer game audio, live and installation sound, SPAT Revolution is designed to easily integrate with various workflows using standard hardware audio interfaces, network audio, and a software audio gateway plug-in to communicate with all major DAWs (AAX, AU, VST).

Unlimited number of Inputs and Outputs
SPAT Revolution supports unlimited number of audio inputs and outputs, with the only actual limitation dependent on computer workstation and audio hardware specifications.
DAW integration is supported using standard plug-ins (AAX, AU, VST) (Experimental) for audio input and output streaming between the DAW and SPAT Revolution through local path or over network.
Unlimited number of Sources
The audio inputs are connected to an unlimited number of source objects providing an extensive set of parameters controlling all aspects of the source in the space including; position, barycentric, radiation as well as perceptual factors such as presence, warmth, brilliance.
Multiple Input Stream Formats
SPAT Revolution mixes, reverberates and spatializes audio from all types of microphones, arrays, high order Ambisonic captures, and from any type of pre-produced stems, supporting a vast range of input stream formats.

Full Control with plug-ins and OSC
Control and Automation of Sources, Rooms and Masters from all major DAWs is provided using plug-ins (AAX, AU, VST) (Experimental), and control from other devices such as digital mixing desks and other controllers is supported using Open Sound Control (OSC).
SPAT Revolution
Comprehensive real-time 3D-audio mixing engine, spatialization of audio sources in 3D-space, reverberation with room effects, mulitple various output and export options, creatively inspiring working environment.
Send/Return/Room Plugins Compatibility
The audio input and output streaming between SPAT and DAWs or any other Host software using plug-ins, is provided even though it’s still in an Experimental stage.
The audio streaming using the plug-ins will work fine in certain configurations, but are not guaranteed to work in all setups and configurations.
The development is continuing and all updates of its progress will be posted here on this webpage.
