Immersive Wrapper turns Waves mono plugins into multichannel processors and enables bus processing in Atmos and other immersive mixes.

Because an immersive mix is output as individual beds and objects, there is no single bus to glue it together as in a stereo mix. Immersive Wrapper opens a mono plugin in multi-mono across all channels of a track from mono up to 9.1.6, and the instances can be control-linked, by group such as surrounds or tops, while preserving relative settings. Shared internal sidechains for dynamics plugins enable bus compression across beds and objects, developed with Hans-Martin Buff and Yaron Fuchs.
