The new Airsound Spatial Audio Processor
ASAP v5 is the latest generation of the Airsound Spatial Audio Processor, rebuilt from the ground up to deliver lower CPU load, greater scalability, and a much more flexible user experience.
The biggest shift is control.
With ASAP v5, the soundfield can be moved and rotated in real time, allowing immersive audio systems to be used in a far more flexible and intuitive way.

ASAP v5 at The Distillery II, Bristol
This installation shows ASAP v5 running in a large live room environment built around a powerful PA system.
The original Airsound installation at The Distillery II used a custom version of the software built specifically for the space. With ASAP v5, the system can now be configured using the standard software platform by simply mapping the room, placing the loudspeakers virtually, and assigning the audio outputs.
This demonstrates how Airsound Spatial can now be deployed much more easily in studios, live rooms, venues, and other listening spaces.
Bring immersive spatial audio to your space
ASAP v5 makes it far easier to deploy immersive spatial audio in studios, live rooms, venues, and public listening spaces.
