Thanks!

Yeah, frustration with the existing solutions was one of the main reasons I started this project.

I was working in creating immersive audio, and I just found that none of the plugins allowed the level of placement that I wanted. It was all fiddly, and you couldn't easily move the listening position around, while also moving sound sources.

I came from an audio engineering background, not programming, so it took me a while to even learn how to make software! But now I made the tool I always needed.

Very cool project! And well done on doing it without being a software eng!

How long have you been working on it out of interest?

Lots of cool software was created by domain experts who taught themselves how to program. And quality is more than often is excellent.

Thanks! Yeah it was a steep learning curve at the start but I’m very confident now.

I started it in 2020 - here’s a blog post about the history https://www.audiocube.app/blog/audiocube-history

I’ve recently got it working on an iPad which was a frustrating grind but I think the concept is a lot of fun on touchscreen!
