Halo Suite

Description

Essential Information About the NUGEN Halo Suite Software

  • Comprehensive 3D tool suite for upmix, downmix, monitoring, and real-time analysis, ideal for immersive workflows and Dolby Atmos.
  • Halo Upmix preserves the integrity of the original mix through intelligent extraction of localization cues and neural network-driven speech recognition.
  • Halo Downmix offers decisive control over multichannel folding, with fine-tuning, rebalancing, and archive compatibility.
  • Halo Vision combines 7 customizable analysis modules to visualize phase correlation, spectrum, and localization with a clear and concise interface.

What NUGEN Halo Suite Is For

Designed for film/TV post-production, broadcast, video games, and immersive music, "Halo Suite" enables the creation of natural upmixes from stereo sources, optimizes reliable downmixes to lower formats, and precisely monitors spatial coherence. It ensures compatibility of multichannel deliverables and accelerates decision-making in sometimes imperfect listening environments.

Main Features

Natural and Reliable Upmix

"Halo Upmix" expands the soundstage without artifacts or artificial coloration. The algorithm detects localization cues in real time and maintains essential elements, with dialogue recognition that keeps the voice front and center. The "Exact" mode guarantees that a future downmix respects the original balance.

Decisive and Controlled Downmix

"Halo Downmix" offers fine adjustments for surround folding, balance corrections, and catalog compatibility. The interface switches between compact and advanced modes to either get straight to the point or access detailed settings depending on the context.

Real-Time Immersive Analysis

"Halo Vision" combines 7 configurable modules to visualize frequency energy, correlations, and spatial localization. This overview helps quickly spot issues that the ear alone might miss, especially in cases of fatigue or untreated rooms.

Ready for 3D Audio and Atmos

The 3D extensions add support for 5.1.4, 7.1.2, 7.1.4 channels as well as 1st, 2nd, and 3rd order Ambisonics, enabling a smooth workflow towards modern immersive formats, including Dolby Atmos.
