Steven Wilson | Producer, Audio Engineer, Artist | stevenwilsonhq.com
“If I'm remixing a classic album for which some multitracks are missing, Penteo creates an incredibly pure immersive upmix that enables me to keep the intregrity of the album sequence playback in spatial. I can't work without it.”
Thom Paisley | Senior Audio Engineer & Owner Hurricane Sound
“Penteo is still our go-to immersive upmix/downmix plugin. It sounds fantastic, supports all the audio formats we need, can be dialled-in quickly, and always downmixes perfectly.We often upmix Stereo SFX stems to 5.1 Surround or Dolby Atmos and need to keep the mono content in the centre speaker. Penteo's new Autodetect Mono mode does this perfectly, making our workflows faster and more creative.”
Robin Walsh | Owner & Chief Engineer | Assegai Audio
“1 completed the 5.1 Surround music upmixes for Shaka iLembe, delivering 32 massive music cues in 3 days for the first episode! Penteo's ease of use was literally the star of the show, because it made upmixing Stereo sources into Surround so intuitive. The fact that every track downmixed perfectly was mind-blowing! Using the rear shelf and diffuse modes gave me the creative control I needed.”
Alan Meyerson Supervising Score Mixer Remote Control Productions
“I couldn't live without Penteo in my daily Surround and Atmos workflows. Penteo upmixes always deliver the speed and quality I need.”
Alex Gamble | Juno Award-Winning Audio Engineer, Music Producer, Mixer
“Penteo has ended up in almost every Dolby Atmos mix I've done: it is the most robust and best sounding upmixer that I have used. Penteo is perfect for bringing stereo content closer to the centre of the room, but doesn't come with the phase issues I've seen in other upmixers.”
