The ServerGRIS is an external multichannel sound spatializer for different configurations of speakers in 2D (plane mode: X and Y axis) or 3D (vertical mode: X, Y and Z axis). It is based on the JackRouter HAL plugin which is installed at the same time as the Server. The Server may include up to 128 inputs and outputs. The movements are sent from the SpatGRIS in OSC mode to the Server. The audio spatialization itself is made by the ServerGRIS and sent to the audio interface. VBAP, BINAURAL and STEREO modes are available.
ServerGRIS has been developed by the Groupe de Recherche en Immersion Spatiale (GRIS) directed by Robert Normandeau and based at the Faculty of Music at Université de Montréal.
SpatGRIS and ServerGRIS are still working well but they are not supported anymore, They have been replaced by the duo ControlGRIS/SpatGRIS3 also available at SourceForge (August 2021)
