Remove Silent Channels (RSC). A lot of mixers and producers use templates when starting an Atmos mix. Templates are a great way to preserve workflows from mix to mix, and they give you a head start– especially when working under time pressure. But the downside is that you might have a lot of leftover objects (and even some beds) that you didn't use at all in your finished Atmos mix. Not only does this cause bloated ADM file sizes, but it's something record labels look for in their QC process when ingesting mixes for streaming. A bunch of random silent objects might look like a mistake, or it might look like the result of sloppy bussing in your session.

Based on user feedback, we’ve added three major new features to Immersive Master Pro for processing Dolby Atmos .atmos master files and ADMs:

• Batch Trim and Downmix

• Remove Silent Channels

• Advanced Loudness Correction

This update is free to all existing users.

Integrated loudness. You may have heard of this, and if you’re working in an immersive audio format like Dolby Atmos, you’ve probably heard that there are guidelines for delivering content at a specific loudness target. ADM files have as many as 128 audio channels, so measuring the loudness of a mix that is spread out across that many channels can be challenging. Fortunately, there is a standard method agreed upon in the industry.
