Evangelion gets Atmos remix
Two Evangelion tracks — “A Cruel Angel’s Thesis” and “Soul’s Refrain” — received Dolby Atmos remixes built in Pro Tools using AVID Revive II and WAVES Doubler2, showing how mainstream anime material is being remixed into immersive formats. (x.com) The posts around the remixes highlight plugin chains and workflow choices that producers are sharing publicly as Atmos adoption grows. (x.com)
Avid’s ReVibe II is a room‑modeling reverb optimized for multichannel use and up to 192 kHz sessions, with explicit multichannel (including 5.1) support that engineers commonly use when shaping Atmos “beds.” (avid.com (avid.com)) Waves’ Doubler ships in two- and four‑voice variants, offers up to ~100 ms delay per voice and detuning for pitch modulation, and is marketed as a go‑to for doubling and stereo width on vocals and instruments in modern mixes. (waves.com (waves.com); audiofanzine.com (en.audiofanzine.com)) Pro Tools added an integrated Dolby Atmos renderer in its 2023.12 release, letting mixers monitor and print Atmos beds and objects from inside Pro Tools Studio/Ultimate without the external Dolby Atmos Renderer application. (avid.com (avid.com)) Independent mixing resources and template sellers now offer ready‑made Pro Tools Dolby Atmos templates (7.1.4/7.1.2) and ReVibe presets that mirror the workflows shown in public session screenshots, signaling a small commercial market for Atmos-ready session templates. (soundfreakstudios.com (soundfreakstudios.com); 4lo-digital.com (4lo-digital.com)) Yoko Takahashi’s recent 30th‑anniversary pressings for “A Cruel Angel’s Thesis” and “Soul’s Refrain” were reissued on vinyl in 2025–2026, a commercial moment that coincides with renewed archival mixes and fan/professional remix activity around those tracks.
