Hi! With the latest version of Wavelab (Win 10), I only get silence when switching the renderer to “Binaural”. All other “Output formats” work just fine. Any one else? /Bauer

Thanks, I know! Doesn’t make a difference. Also, if I set the first playback bus to “Stereo” and then add a second bus and set that to “Atmos”, the first bus also changes to “Atmos”. If I then set the stereo bus to “Stereo”, the Atmos bus changes to “Surround”. Something very wierd is going on under…

Well, that’s not correct. In the instruction video for Atmos in Wavelab 13 https://youtu.be/hgVVqoHaxbc?si=o4BuzA2Ia3WrbQv2 (@ 5min ca), they do exactly what I do. Namely, the 7.1.4 output on the first “Speaker arrangement” assigned to 12 discrete outputs, and then the binaural assigned to another…

[image] Bauer: Well, that’s not correct. In the instruction video for Atmos in Wavelab 13 The video is wrong. Do as I tell you: in the main bus, define both eg. your 7.1.4 speaks and the binaural outputs.

Ok, so how do you suggest I set up a dedicated binaural headphone output?

see the picture I have uploaded previously, this is the way.

Hi! After some further testing I can confirm that choosing “binaural” in the Wavelab Atmos renderer on my Win machine results in silence. “Stereo”, and “Stereo direct” works just fine without any other changes than changing the output format in the Atmos renderer. When choosing “Binaural” the mete…

[image] Bauer: no sound reaches the physical outputs, which are the same outputs used for “Stereo”, and “Stereo direct”. That’s the problem: these should be different outputs. See the picture I uploaded a few days ago. These two output devices must be used exclusively for your headphones.

I found this thread after a few hours of searching for any possible WLPro13-specific detail I might’ve missed and finding nothing. My busses were already setup, but I removed them and did it again, just to be sure. Speaker Config 1 (top of list): Dolby Atmos 7.1.4 > ch.1-12 Speaker Config 2: Dolb…

Wavelab 13.0.10 no sound when renderer switched to binaural
