The Sonic State Sonic Lab ‘Exploration’ features hosts Nick Batt & Gaz Williams talking with Geert Bevin, Head of Software Development at Moog Music about the latest version of Animoog Galaxy for Apple Vision Pro.
The first version of Apple Vision Pro is expensive and has a limited audience, but it’s also arguably the most ambitious mixed-reality headset yet. Future iterations are likely to be more affordable, and expand the audience for Vision Pro applications.
Moog jumped in early with Vision Pro, releasing Animoog Galaxy with the debut of Vision Pro.
In the video, Bevin demonstrates Animoog Galaxy and shows how it fits into Apple’s concept of Spatial Computing.
Here’s what’s new in Animoog Galaxy version 1.2.0:
Added support for Spatial Audio in immersive mode, following the position of the comets and with a slider in settings that can attenuate or increase the spatialization.
Updated recorder to always record the stereo version, even if Spatial Audio is enabled.
Added support for resizable volume in shared space.
Re-implemented shared space preset browser to use ornaments.
Tweaked immersion style limits.
Adopted new highlight styles to make focused entities more obvious.
Chase Bliss – maker of high-end effects pedals – has announced that CHOMPI Club, the makers of the CHOMPI sampler, are joining their team.
The CHOMPI is currently sold out, but a new version is in the plans.
Here’s what Chase has to say about it:
Nothing changes for now – All support (questions, repairs, etc.) are being handled by CHOMPI Club as usual, the Discord is still active, and CHOMPI Club are continuing to work on resources and ways to make the CHOMPI sampler even better.
This isn’t the end of the CHOMPI Club, they’re just combining resources.
There will be more CHOMPI – They’re working on another run of the CHOMPI sampler, and it will have some firmware surprises (available for free to existing CHOMPI customers). These will be sold through the Chase Bliss website. The new run is expected to be available later this year.
Chase Bliss will take over support – Once the next batch of CHOMPI goes up for sale, Chase Bliss will take over support of the device. This means CHOMPI owners will now have international support. This will apply to all existing and future CHOMPI owners.
