Free multichannel software for windows

MultiWave was designed to help you create a multichannel wave file from several mono wave files MultiWave was designed to help you create a multichannel wave file from several mono wave files. MultiWave supports the WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE format tag, which allows to store the mapping between the channels and the speakers on which they should play.
Common usages include the generation of quadriphonic and surround 5.1 files.
MultiWave lets you define multichannel configurations. From stereo to surround 7.1, including quadriphony and surround 5.1, and everything else you can imagine. Simply select a wave file for each channel, and then create the corresponding multichannel file! MultiWave processes the samples by blocks of 100 Kb, so you can use input files of virtually any size, without going out of memory.
Several options are available, to automatically select wave files for all the channels with only one click (based on file suffixes), to pad the shortest samples with silence, or to automatically save the result.

These are multichannel vst effect plugins and will have little or no use on stereo or mono tracks. Quadmix is the inverse of Quadpan. It is a utility plugin for modular programs like audiomulch and bidule which takes four inputs and sends them to one output. The volume for each input is controlled by the position of a ball on the XY pad.
If the ball is in the top left hand corner, the audio will only come from the first input etc. If it is in the middle the signal is spread evenly between all the inputs.
The ball can be controlled by two lfos (assigned to the X and Y co-ordinates) which allow a variety of different patterns to be created. There are 16 preset shapes included.

A windows command line utility used to transcode multichannel wav files into mono wavs by outputting the number of wavs depending on the number of channels read from the wav header. Will also decode/transcode .dts files (48kHz) and DTSWav (44.1kHz) directly into mono wavs depending on the
number of channels found.
DTS decoding was made available using libdts from dtsdec source code written by Gildas Bazin with some help from Sam Hocevar which was based on a52dec code with original credits going to Aaron Holtzman and Michel Lespinasse.
Modifications were made to output
mono wavs directly, including LFE output. Currently there is no AC-3 support, but plans for it in the future.
Multichannel Transcoding:
---------------------------------
Mono wav output
will be PCM (non extensible), and have the same bit resolution and sample rate as the multichannel source
wav. Supports very large wavs files (> 4GB), including wav extensible format. Supports 2-ch (stereo), up
to 18 channels. If a mono wav is transcoded, the result will be an "empty" or blank wav with the same
characteristics as the source wav.
Suffix naming convention: Is the same as the output order (as displayed during transcoding):
2 channels:
-L (Left)
-R (Right)
3 channels:
-L (Left)
-R (Right)
-C (Center)
4 channels:
-FL (Front Left)
-FR (Front Right)
-BL (Back Left)
-BR (Back Right)
5 channels:
-FL (Front Left)
-FR (Front Right)
-C (Front Center)
-SL (Surround "Back" Left)
-SR (Surround "Back" Right)
6 channels:
-FL (Front Left)
-FR (Front Right)
-C (Front Center)
-LFE (Low Frequency Effect)
-SL (Surround "Back" Left)
-SR (Surround "Back" Right)
7 channels:
-FL (Front Left)
-FR (Front Right)
-FC (Front Center)
-LFE (Low Frequency Effect)
-BL (Back Left)
-BR (Back Right)
-FLC (Front Left Center)
...
DTS Transcoding:
-----------------------
Transcoded .dts (48kHz) and DTSWav (44.1kHz) files into 32 bit float mono wavs regardless of the bit
resolution they were originally encoded with. The number of output mono wavs depends on the number
of channels read. There is also a downmix option (/S) to output a 16 bit stereo wav. It does not support DTS ES
The output order (is the same as displayed during transcoding):
Usually as 6 or 5 channels, having the suffix name appended as follows:
(note: SL & SR were used instead of BL (Back Left) & BR because I got accustomed to the naming convention)
6 channels:
-FL (Front Left)
-FR (Front Right)
-C (Front Center)
-LFE (Low Frequency Effect)
-SL (Surround "Back" Left)
-SR (Surround "Back" Right)
5 channels:
-FL (Front Left)
-FR (Front Right)
-C (Front Center)
-SL (Surround "Back" Left)
-SR (Surround "Back" Right)
...
Some examples of its usage:
1) Transcodes to (6) 32 bit float mono wavs using "temp-" as the output prefix name:
tranzcode "Us and Them.dts" temp
outputs: temp-FL, temp-FR, temp-C, temp-LFE, temp-SL, temp-SR
2) Transcodes to (6) 32 bit float mono wavs using "-" as the output prefix name:
tranzcode "Us and Them.dts"
outputs: Us and Them-FL, Us and Them-FR, Us and Them-C, Us and Them-LFE, Us and Them-SL, Us and Them-SR
3) Transcode to (2) 32 bit mono wavs (selected channels only/cancels the others):
tranzcode Us_and_Them.wav /+C,LFE
outputs: Us_and_Them-C, Us and Us_and_Them-LFE
4) Transcode to (4) 32 bit mono wavs (selected channels are cancelled):
tranzcode Us_and_Them.wav test /-C,LFE
outputs: test-FL, test-FR, test-SL, test-SR
5) Downmix to a 16 bit stereo wav without gain adjust:
tranzcode "Us and Them.dts" /S
outputs: Us and Them-(stereo).wav
6) Downmix to a 16 bit stereo wav with 15% (lower) gain adjustment (x .15):
tranzcode Us_and_Them.wav" "downmix test" /S@15%
outputs: downmix test-(stereo).wav

Crystal Audio Engine is a multichannel audio engine with Open System Design for Digital Signalprocessing in realtime.

This tool allow you to encode various audio content in MPEG multichannel audio format introduced by Phillips. Hypercube Transcoder is a small, simple and easy-to-use tool that will allow you to encode various audio content in MPEG multichannel audio format introduced by Phillips.
Such mpeg audio files can be multiplexed with regular MPEG2 video stream to build 5.1 SVCD.
MPEG Multichannel can offer up to 7.1 real discrete audio channels. Currenlty Hypercube transcoder is able to produce only 5.1 channels.
MPEG Multichannel is the official European standard for multi channel DVD surround. However it is easily surpassed in terms of sound quality by both Dolby Digital and DTS.
It never gained wide acceptance in the industry with producers preferring to use the existing soundtracks produced for other versions such as the US which were commonly already in Dolby Digital or DTS.
