MIDI & HOST Automation:

host channels per entity.
To make the assignment of MIDI controllers even easier we integrated next to the manual assignment also a
midi learn function.

parameter afterwards. Freedom recognizes the CC number and its position automatically and assigns this
number to the selected parameter accordingly.

You can view this number in the midi ctrl # menu at any time and of course also change it manually.
The host automation works exactly the same way - you can assign host controller channels both manually
Freedom - SURROUND ENVIRONMENT:
Freedom - powerful surround features:
ALL insert lters and effects of Freedom are fully surround compatible.
Worldwide unique in the Freedom is the exibility of switching between different surround formats: You
can change the input a nd output format of Freedom completely independent from the original input format
of your audio le! Generally Freedom recognizes the surround format of your host-channel automatically
and assigns the input and output format accordingly. Nevertheless you can assign other surround formats
afterwards at any time - here an example:
Your host-channel has the surround format 5.0 DTS. You only want to edit the three front channels and
nally create a new surround format after your editing. Simply select the input format 3.0 Cinema in
Freedom, assign any insert lters and effects you want, and nally select the output format 5.0 Dolby
Digital.
The Channel Manager automatically shows all available channels of the currently selected output format,
so if you switch from stereo
to 5.1 DTS the Channel Manager display will switch accordingly:
You can also use the Channel Manager to netune the volume, delay and output channels of your output
format.
Additionally you can route any channel of your surround format to L (left) and R (right) and thus create a
mix down of your surround format to stereo.
You can see that with Freedom it is possible to extract separate channels of a surround le (any combination
is possible), to edit them afterwards and nally to create a totally new surround format of these channels
using the sophisticated Surround Panner. This powerful helper enables you to use stereo, mono and
surround audio les in any Freedom surround environment. Corresponding to the position of the stereo (L
& R), mono (M) or surround (S) icons, ne w volume settings get calculated for all existing channels of your
currently selected surround format.

and the outer red circle displays the rear minimum dB value of the newly created a udio signal.

Freedom - ORIGAMI:
Impulse Response engine for highest demands!
Origami - Powerful & Innovative Impulse Response Processor:
Origami is a high-end Impulse Response processor developed by yellow tools software developers and
audio engineers. Origami is incredibly powerful and any editing or customization of Impulse Response les
and nally the setup of your instruments inside the loaded rooms is possible in real-time!!!
No doubt: Yellow tools Origami gives you an amazing listening experience - as if you would be in the room
yourself!
The sophisticated Independence Impulse Response Processor Origami even manages true stereo (one
multi channel audio le with 4 separate cha nnels) and true surround processing up to 8.1 (one interleaved
audio le with up to 81 separate channels).
Even in true stereo and true surround mode you can still use the positioner feature and the new
Channel Manager insert allows you any custom channel routing to t your needs.
The following processing is supported:
mono to: mono | stereo | surround |
stereo to: mono | stereo | true stereo | surround | true surround |
surround to: mono | stereo | true stereo | surround | true surround |
The Origami version of Independence includes Impulse Response les from the fantastic INSP:IR Impulse
Library from Inspired Acoustics.
Contrary to a synthetically produced Reverb the Impulse Response processing of Origami uses real rooms
to for the creation of the reverb. As it were a ngerprint of the acoustic characteristics of a real room is
used. With this ngerprint one can n ow provide arbitrary acoustic signals. This form of the reverb creation is
also called convolution reverb, since during the signal generation the mathematical operation of convolution
is used. This technology is not only limited to simulating rooms, rather each acoustic system can be
simulated. IR technology gets used most frequently in the eld of scoring and lm synchronisation.
Origami - Selection of the IR le:
When you added Origami as insert effect to your snapshot slot, you can use the presets pull-down menu to
load the already integrated IR les.
The Origami version of Independence already contains a selection of premium surround IR les. Beside the
surround IR les you will also nd additional rooms.
