If you spend any time at all working in surround formats you're going to want Spanner.
Designed by real post audio pros to solve real world problems, Spanner has redefined sound design, editing and mixing in surround.
It's a panner, sure, but that doesn't even scratch the surface of what this thing can do.
With complete independent control of every channel, several industry first features and an incredibly simple interface it is possibly the most versatile plugin in your arsenal.
Spancontrol
The Spancontrol iPad app is an industry first, providing a purpose built, customised and ergonomically tuned touch interface to the Spanner plugin.
Harnessing the networking and multi-touch capabilities of the iOS platform, Spancontrol has made possible an entirely new way of controlling surround panning, and plugins in general.
The app scans your local network for Spanner plugin instances and can automatically mount any instance you open in Pro Tools. When combined with the Eucon plugin-following mode you have a surround panner at your fingertips simply by selecting a clip in Pro Tools.
The interface is multi-touch with several intuitive linking modes, allowing incredibly complex but organic moves with very little effort.
