SpatStrument SM24 Spatial Audio Synthesizer and Sampler Plugin by Acousmodules

SpatStrument SM24 by Acousmodules is a Virtual Instrument and a Virtual Effect Audio Plugin for macOS and Windows. It functions as a VST 3 Plugin.

It’s not an effect, it’s not a synthesizer, it’s not a sampler, it’s not a 3D panner, it’s not a controller… but it is all of this: it is the SpatStrument SM24;-).

Spatialization of sound with „3D panner“ type tools is now a common and easy thing, and the popularization of spatial audio with Dolby Atmos and ambisonic technique makes it almost fashionable.
But considering a loudspeaker space as a concrete dimension of sound which can be modeled in a global way still remains the task of kind of „hackers“, most often requiring specialized and somewhat complex environments.

Thanks to the recent expansion of MPE gesture controllers (my first one was the LinnStrument…), this SpatStrument should make it possible to approach audio-spatial sculpting in a playful and creative way, whether it is done inside standardized broadcast formats or in the freedom of original creations.

This plugin may interest firstly people who play electronic and electroacoustic live music, but also those who compose in multichannel studios to create fixed media works for domes, cinema, acousmoniums or whatever they like, with ambisonics or even binaural with the appropriate convertors.

Fortunately, it can also work in stereo with an ordinary keyboard with still enough features to play with sounds in innovative ways;-).
