Dolby Atmos Composer
Dolby Atmos mixing on any DAW.Next generation workflow for Dolby Atmos mixing
When you want to get creative or just need to get work done, you need tools which do the heavy lifting. The Dolby Atmos Composer does that and thereby enables you to quickly get convincing results while mixing in Dolby Atmos. No matter which DAW you use, if you have a sophisticated multichannel mixing room or just use headphones for monitoring, the features and the ease of use of the Dolby Atmos Composer are unrivalled.
Dolby Atmos offers the canvas for today's cutting-edge creativity, but too many creatives have trouble combining the ways of Atmos with their personal workflow. The Dolby Atmos Composer takes care of that. It allows me to create music for Atmos in a way I want in any music program I want, even in programs that currently only offer stereo. From plug-and-play to next-level deep sea exploration of Atmos’ possibilities. I’m in.

The creative workflow is just amazing. With Dolby Atmos Composer, the 3D reverb Spacelab, and finally the Mastering Console with gravitas MDS dynamics you get breathtaking results fast. I love the fact that you can easily expand your existing stereo mixes to Atmos or even mix in Stereo and Atmos at the same time.

Dolby Atmos Composer allows me to work cross-platform very easily and enables instant mixing in immersive audio. The integration into existing workflows is terrific and takes sound creation to a new level..

The Fiedler Audio workflow is what really sets it apart from others. You can keep your entire creative track creation open and available from the demo, to final, to stereo and Atmos mix. All while staying in your original creative DAW. Changing panning, levels, or effects never need to be compromised by getting locked into pre-mixes.

On any DAW
No matter if your DAW is stereo only or fully immersive. With the Dolby Atmos Composer you can produce on any system, anywhere. The feature set and ease of use is available on both Mac and Windows.
Approved by Dolby Labs
The Dolby Atmos Composer is fully approved by Dolby Labs. It gives you access to all the settings for creating professional Dolby Atmos mixes plus features you won't find in any other Atmos solution.
Fastest workflow
The workflow of the Dolby Atmos Composer ecosystem stands apart from all those clunky and burdensome ways to create Dolby Atmos mixes. That way your creativity can flow freely and work gets done.
Next level Panning
The Dolby Atmos Beam is the sophisticated and versatile panning plugin coming with the Composer. Easily automated complex movements and circumvent your DAW's routing limitations.
Mix bus processing
One of the most sought after features is processing a Dolby Atmos mix with up to 128 channels just like a stereo mix. The Dolby Atmos Composer is the only tool offering the Master Channel for your Dolby Atmos mixing workflow with modules for processing similar to plugins on a master track.
3D Reverb on any DAW
Our spacelab series plugins are highend immersive reverbs with a sound rivalling the best and features you won't find anywhere. They connect instantly to the Dolby Atmos Composer giving you the best 3D reverb experience even on stereo-only DAW's with just a few clicks.
With Dolby Atmos Composer, Fiedler Audio have produced the first non-Dolby solution to rendering Atmos music mixes. But Dolby Atmos Composer also brings Atmos mixing to almost any DAW, and it offers routing options that make Dolby’s own renderer seem somewhat Byzantine. It’s Atmos mixing for the masses.

Verdict
The gravitas MDS module and the Spacelab plugin work together in Dolby Atmos Composer to deliver what I think is one of the best Dolby Atmos workflow management systems out there. Not only does this ecosystem ensure the best possible quality with all spatial information included in the mix, but it also enables you to use DAWs that have none or partial support for the Dolby Atmos workflow.
Erik Vlietlinck (Visual Producer Magazine - May 2024 & Red Shark News - June 2024)
The main point is that you can use Dolby Atmos Composer and its partner Beam in any DAW, even those limited to two channels. The results are impressive, even through headphones (although, of course, even better if you have access to a full surround speaker array!).
