XP is an spatial audio solution designed to expand with simplicity Ableton Live potential toward the field of spatial sound creation and performance. The goal of XP is to provide Ableton users with a flexible and simplified environment to create 3d audio projects. Based on the Spat~ of Ircam, the first version of XP was released in September 2021, and very soon a new version will be released with many new features like head tracking and 6dof. In addition to these new features, by combining Ableton, the most intuitive Daw, a dynamic 3D visual environment, and Spat~ algorithm, unique in the world in its ability to simulate acoustic spaces, XP offers creators a powerful 3d design interface. The presentation can take the form of a talk with a demonstration on a small scale spatial audio system (from 4 loudspeakers), as well as being conducted in a dome with full spatial audio capacity. It could also take the form of a workshop, which will then require further discussion with Imersa on the possible ways to organize it. (20 minutes)
