Now at version 2.1, RaySpace is a completely new acoustic room simulator. This reverb introduces the new DBT engine that creates surround-sound atmospheres. The characteristics of the room shape, height, positions and materials can all be adjusted in real-time. Combined with the 3D view and the parametric equaliser, the user is given the complete audio and visual feedback of room designs. With full automation, source and listener positions can be 'walked' though the rooms, ideal for patching dialogue in radio plays or films.

This updated also fixes several minor bugs.

Some may have marked some thread types were missing… Well they are not far away. in fact, you'll even find them back in our brand new forums dedicated respectively to Cubase, Digital Performer and Garageband. Watch out for the next ones! Another small step in the big rework we have underway for the site and the forum mkII…

Enjoy! :)
