Sennheiser AMBEO Orbit
Sennheiser
AMBEO Orbit is a free binaural panner plug-in originally released by Sennheiser in 2018 as part of the AMBEO 3D recording / VR ecosystem, intended to position mono and stereo sources in a 3D headphone mix using HRTFs based on the Neumann KU100 dummy head. It included a 'Clarity' parameter for controlling the amount of binaural colouration and a simple early-reflection / room-reverb module for five wall-material types.
