Audio equipment manufacturer Neumann has released VIS, a free augmented reality application that transforms spatial audio production by enabling Apple Vision Pro users to manipulate sound sources through hand gestures within three-dimensional virtual environments. The software integrates directly with Logic Pro running on Mac computers, displaying the digital audio workstation on a customizable virtual screen while allowing creators to position audio objects physically through natural movements rather than traditional two-dimensional interfaces.
The application supports both speaker and headphone playback through RIME, Neumann's proprietary spatial audio technology that handles formats reaching 7.1.4 configurations while leveraging the headset's head-tracking capabilities for accurate monitoring. Apple Vision Pro's pass-through technology permits simultaneous interaction with physical studio gear, making the system viable across professional facilities and remote production scenarios.
