What Halo Vision does
The plugin is built around a set of views that can be arranged on screen. The Correlation Matrix and Correlation Web views show how channels relate to each other: in the web view, a line connects each pair of channels, and the line lights up when the phase relationship between the two becomes anti-correlated. Both correlation views use Contextual Correlation by default, a method that compensates for level differences between channels so that only likely correlation problems are highlighted, instead of the normalised values produced by standard correlation meters.
Frequency and location are covered by the Frequency Haze view, which places low frequencies at the centre of a circular display and high frequencies at the outer edge, and by the Location Haze view, which visualises the perceived location of the audio by showing the energy distribution across the surround field. Other views include a Combined mode, a Spectrum view that displays an FFT level-against-frequency graph for all channels, a Groups mode that organises channels into groups with their own spectrums, a True Peak dB meter for each channel and a Timecode readout that follows the current host or DAW playback position.
Key features
- Correlation Matrix and Correlation Web. The matrix and web views present channel-to-channel correlation, with the web drawing a line between each pair of channels and lighting it when the phase relationship turns anti-correlated.
- Contextual Correlation. This is the default method for both correlation views. It compensates for level differences between channels so that only correlation issues likely to matter are highlighted.
- Frequency Haze. A circular display that maps low frequencies to the centre and high frequencies to the outer edge.
- Location Haze. Shows the perceived location of the audio by displaying the energy distribution across the surround field.
- Spectrum and Groups views. The Spectrum view draws an FFT level-against-frequency graph for all channels, and the Groups mode arranges channels into groups with their own spectrums.
- True Peak and Timecode. A True Peak dB meter is provided for each channel, and a Timecode view reads out the position of the current host or DAW playback.
