Advanced Real-Time Upmixer for Professional Immersive Audio Applications.

The Areal Upmix Engine converts stereo content into immersive multichannel audio in real-time, without altering the original mix. Powered by the RISE algorithm, the engine intelligently redistributes spectral elements across multiple channels, delivering rich immersive experiences without multitrack stems or object-based mixes.

LF Warp functionality enables reshaping of low-frequency imaging for enhanced bass control and impact. FocusField technology allows detailed definition and steering of the spatial image, adapting the focus to fit the application.

Featuring flexible Dante™, AES3, MADI, and balanced analog I/O connectivity, Upmix Engine is equipped for demanding live events and tours, performance venues, corporate events and broadcast scenarios.
