B360 quickly and intuitively converts mono, stereo and surround tracks to the 4-channel Ambisonics B-format for 360° and VR mixes.

YouTube, Facebook, gaming, VR, sound effects libraries and others increasingly demand 360° mixes in the industry-standard Ambisonics B-format. Unlike mono, stereo or surround tracks, which route to individual speakers, the four channels of B-format together represent the entire spherical soundfield, so conventional tracks must first be converted. B360 does this on your final mix or on individual channels for precise positioning, with width, rotation and elevation controls, up to seven image sources and utilities for converting between AmbiX and FuMa.
