"Sequoia has offered sophisticated solutions for ambitious, professional audio productions for decades and Version 15 is no exception", says Clemens Weinhold, Sequoia Product Owner. "Sequoia 15 features an impressive range of new 3D Surround workflows and functions, among other optimizations.“

 

With new features for Surround, audio material in Sequoia 15 can be mixed with any number of Surround masters in a single project and on up to 32 channels per track. The 3D Surround Panner allows for better display and control when positioning highs for virtual sound sources in a new, clearer view. Another new feature is VBAP positioning mode (Vector Base Amplitude Panning), which enables users to create Surround setup phantom sources with high sound localization acuity.

Automated track parameters such as volume, panorama or VST effect parameters can now also be visualized and edited in lanes inside an audio track. Control elements in the track header offer lots of options for operating and switching the parameters. Also, Version 15 offers simultaneous multiple format export in a wide range of channel formats and codec configurations.

A range of additional new features and optimizations are included in Sequoia 15, such as a new plug-in browser for faster access to all effect and instrument plug-ins, multicore handling with support for up to 32 CPU cores and the option to boost ASIO priority to maximize CPU usage, new MIDI functions for external devices and MIDI workflow improvements as well as advanced compatibility with Avid® Pro Tools | S6 controllers – for higher efficiency and more precise results.
