Module 7.6 – Exporting and Importing Input/Binaural/Re-Render Configuration Files 

  • Updated

Topics covered in this article: 

  • Input/binaural/re-render settings 
  • Input/binaural/re-render configuration files 
  • Export of input/binaural/re-render configuration files 
  • Import of input/binaural/re-render configuration files 

Input/Binaural/Re-render Settings 

Input Configuration and Binaural metadata settings are stored within the master file. However, if the same settings are to be used again for multiple projects, it may be helpful to store these settings, along with Re-render settings, separately. These settings files can be supplied along with ADM BWF files to facilitate additional post and localization work at other facilities. 

Input/Binaural/Re-render Configuration Files 

Input/Binaural/Re-Render settings can be exported to an .atmosIR file. 

The following is included in an .atmosIR file: 

  • Input Configuration settings 
    • Input Channel Configuration assignments (as beds, objects, or no assignment) 
    • Bed and object descriptions 
    • Assignments to groups 
    • Custom group names 
  • Binaural Render Mode Configuration settings 
    • Per bed or object input channel, setting for binaural distance model 
  • Re-render Configuration settings 
    • Re-render channel strips 
    • Re-render settings, per strip 
    • Properties (strip name, layout, and group assignments) 
    • Mapping 

The .rmuio configuration files saved by the Renderer v1.72 and earlier are compatible with the current versions of the Renderer. These files can be imported, but .atmosIR files created in current versions are not backwards compatible with v1.72 and earlier. 

Exporting Input/Binaural/Re-render Settings 

If a master file is open, export will use the settings from the master file. 

To export the Input/Binaural/Re-Render settings from a master file: 

  • Navigate from the menu bar to File > Export Master Input/Binaural/Re-Render Config or press Option+Shift+E (Mac) or Alt+Shift+E (Windows). 
  • Browse to the desired output directory. 
  • Name the file. 
  • Click Save. 

If no master file is open, the source is input, and the export will use the current settings. 

  • Navigate from the menu bar to File > Export Input/Binaural/Re-Render Config or type Option+Shift+E (Mac) or Alt+Shift+E (Windows). 
  • Browse to the desired output directory. 
  • Name the file. 
  • Click Save. 

Exporting an Input/Binaural/Re-render config file using the Renderer Remote application will save the .atmosIR file on the same computer the Renderer Remote is running on, not on the external workstation. 

Importing Input/Binaural/Re-render Settings 

To import the Input/Binaural/Re-Render Settings: 

  • Navigate from the menu bar to File > Import Input/Binaural/Re-Render Config or press Option+Shift+I (Mac) or Alt+Shift+I (Windows). 
  • Select the file. 
  • If a master file is already ooen only the Re-render configuration can be loaded.

  • If a master file is not open, the Import dialog allows the option to import the Input Configuration (Input Configuration only or Input and Binaural Configuration) as well as the Re-render Configuration.
