spatial audio
one space.
SOUND IN MOTION.
SIAP Spatial turns audio sources into controllable spatial objects, positioning, moving and enhancing them in real time across the venue, with exceptional sound quality and an intuitive creative workflow.
A FLEXIBLE SPATIAL AUDIO ENVIRONMENT
Sound sources can be placed, moved and controlled in real time, creating direction, depth, motion and envelopment throughout the venue.
SIAP delivers exceptionally smooth, natural object movement, while Instant Sonic Immersion (ISI) can transform individual sources or groups into rich, expansive spatial experiences at the touch of a button.
From immersive playback to automated movement, live control and tracking integration, SIAP Spatial gives sound designers and technical teams the creative freedom to shape and transform sound in real time.
SIAP Spatial GUI — object-based control, real-time positioning and spatial processing
POSITION. MOVE. TRANSFORM.
POSITION
Place audio objects and groups anywhere within the three-dimensional venue model, positioning sound in direct relation to the venue and loudspeaker layout.
MOVE
Move individual objects, groups or complete spatial layouts in real time, with smooth and natural source movement throughout the listening area.
TRANSFORM
Apply SIAP Reverb, HALO effects and Instant Sonic Immersion processing to individual objects and groups, adding depth, scale, movement and immersive impact.
SPATIAL RENDERING
The right rendering method for the space, source and creative intention.
SIAP Spatial supports multiple spatial rendering methods, giving designers the flexibility to match spatial behaviour to different sources, loudspeaker layouts and applications.
DBAP · VBAP · EVBAP I · EVBAP II · SIAP Wave Propagation
SIAP Wave Propagation is SIAP’s own spatial rendering approach, developed to deliver exceptionally smooth, stable and natural object movement across the listening area.
DESIGNED AROUND THE SPACE
Work directly inside the venue.
Import a 3D venue model and use it as the visual reference for spatial design. Objects, groups and loudspeakers are displayed within the performance space, helping designers understand position, movement and scale in direct relation to the room.
The visualiser provides 3D and fixed views and supports different model presentations, including monochrome, transparency and wireframe display.

FOCUSED BY DESIGN. FLEXIBLE BY INTEGRATION.
SIAP Spatial keeps the core spatial workflow clear and intuitive. Positioning, processing and real-time spatial control remain inside one focused environment, while specialised external tools can be integrated where more advanced creative automation is required.
ADVANCED MOVEMENT WITH GRAPES 3D
For advanced trajectory design and automation, SIAP Spatial integrates with GRAPES 3D via OSC.
Dedicated SIAP presets in GRAPES 3D provide a direct workflow for creating complex automated object movement, while SIAP Spatial remains the central environment for spatial rendering, processing and system control.
OPEN SYSTEM INTEGRATION
SIAP Spatial integrates into professional audio and show-control environments through Dante / AES67 networked audio and IP network control via OSC.
Audio can be supplied from mixing consoles, DAWs, playback systems and other sources. Spatial control can come from the SIAP Spatial GUI or from external platforms for cues, automation and performer tracking.

READY TO DEPLOY
SIAP Spatial is designed for straightforward deployment.
System integrators can install and configure the AVA Processor as part of the wider audio system, without the need for dedicated SIAP tuning or on-site commissioning.
Once the system is in place, creative and technical teams can use SIAP Spatial independently, supported by clear documentation, setup guidance and practical tutorials.
Project-specific system design, integration, training and workflow support are available where required.
POWERED BY THE SIAP AVA PLATFORM
From compact immersive rooms to large-scale venues.
SIAP Spatial runs on the scalable AVA platform and is configured according to project scale, loudspeaker layout, audio I/O and required spatial processing capacity.
AVA 3
Up to 16 audio objects
Up to 24 output channels
Up to 3rd-order HOA
Up to 96 kHz
AVA 5
Up to 32 audio objects
Up to 48 output channels
Up to 6th-order HOA
Up to 192 kHz
AVA 7
Up to 64 audio objects
Up to 64 output channels
Up to 7th-order HOA
Up to 192 kHz
AVA 9
Up to 128 audio objects
Up to 128 output channels
Up to 7th-order HOA
Up to 192 kHz
Capacity depends on AVA configuration, sample rate, I/O format, processing scope and project-specific licensing.
SPATIAL AUDIO + ACTIVE ACOUSTICS
For projects requiring both SIAP Spatial Audio and SIAP Active Acoustics, the AVA platform can be configured accordingly.
AVA 7 supports Active Acoustics and Spatial within the same platform with mode switching between configurations, while AVA 9 is intended for advanced systems where both may operate simultaneously.
