d&b audiotechnik Unveils Create.Control

d&b audiotechnik introduces Create.Control, a standalone software that opens the creative possibilities of the d&b Soundscape ecosystem to a wider range of users.

With Create.Control, the creative freedom of object-based mixing now gets its own space, enabling sound designers, engineers, and creatives to explore extensive features in an independent environment - whether in pre-production or during a live show. Users can design and prepare projects offline, adding a new layer of flexibility and creative workflow to the d&b system across churches, theatres, and concert halls.
Empowering engineers and creatives

Create.Control brings peace of mind to system engineers working with guest engineers and creatives. By having a dedicated native software for the mixer, there is no longer the need to share the R1 system interface to creatively work with Soundscape. While system settings remain in a safe environment, it also streamlines work with external mixing engineers who just need to connect with their personal hard- and software.

"With Create.Control, we're giving content designers and mixing engineers the ability to access creativity and control in their own workspace," says Christian Ahrens, Product Designer Soundscape, d&b audiotechnik. "At the same time, it gives system engineers a more controlled and reliable way of working with visiting teams. It's a win-win for creativity and system integrity.”

Traditionally, Soundscape systems have been designed using d&b ArrayCalc and creatively controlled via En-Scene and En-Space, the processing modules for the R1 control software. Whilst the renowned d&b Workflow remains, Create.Control adds a user-friendly layer to the flow, logically aligning and addressing the need for a simplified solution. It delivers straightforward access for users in a variety of environments, allowing them to create, edit and reuse Soundscape projects with ease.
The new Create.Control software is our next step to make Soundscape more accessible. After launching the scalable I/O sizes for DS100 and DS100M and the redundancy packages, this software adds an intuitive interface to the Soundscape toolkit.

InfoComm 2025 attendees can learn more about the software at booth no. 6973 or in the d&b demo room W320, Chapin Theater, level 3. In the Chapin Theater, there will be demo sessions covering the latest developments around d&b Soundscape, as well as an introduction to the benefits of Create.Control.
