Wouldn't this effect DIRAC ART's implementation?new stormaudio firmware 4.60r0
i not yet contacted for new firmware link , to be honest i'm not much interested in it , multi-subwoofer , ( i can do that on the behringer DCX ) bass shaker again ( i can do that with behringer DCX ) i was expecting the remaining extra back channels , what for atmos mixes , not even interested in atmos anymore , unless they offer true below discrete surround , i'm not interested , atmos is technically flawed at been waste of 11 no years

Ok, but isn't ART supposed to fix some of those issues, especially in setups that are like yours?i don't care for storm pack of electronics audio anymore , atmos is flawed of waste of 11 no years , ranting about it on live yt video at present

A really welcome update on quite a number of things. It is really encouraging the rate that Stormaudio continues to develop the product. For people that want to use the device for multiple zones, this is a great update. As long as you have free channels for other zones, you can do other 2.1 zones with Dirac/ART with the added subwoofer support. For me, the only other things on my list would be:Here are the changes with Firmware 4.6r0 dated April 15, 2024:
- Add Zone 2.x support:
- Use of the Configurator to create Zones.
- Add Sub(s) with bass management support on Zones.
- Add multi-way support on Zones.
- Zones become by default audio/video zones.
- Add Dirac ART support on Zones.
- Multiple Zones’ Audio Profiles management selectable on remote controls.
- Add multi-way Sub management allowing sub array with Dirac Live Bass Control and ART
- Add Bass shaker management on ISP platform:
- Bass shaker takes LFE channel.
- Bass Shaker not included in Dirac calibration.
- Add on Settings page:
- Audio / Video mode selection for the Zones, AV by default,
- Add CEC settings:
- Enable general CEC.
- Allow Standby from TV.
- Allow Standby from device.
- Enable one touch play.
- Add Top speaker selection without Center Height speaker in allowed configurations.
- StormXt extension to Native mode: 5.1 & 7.1 legacy now included.
- In the WebUI Header, presets now classified by Theater.
- Add Bessel filter on bass management crossover: BESS 12, BESS 24, BESS 36, BES 48
- Always generate a Preset when a profile is created.
- With StormEasy, automatically assign created Inputs and Presets to the IR assignment table.
- CEC expansion:
- Add CEC Hostname.
- Bug fix on CEC Order stack.
- CEC Mode passthrough added.
- Power On and power Off of ISP / TV / Source in fast boot mode.
- Blocking of CEC commands for zone 2 (HDMI Output 2)
- Improve the message on front panel when switching On or Off.
- TCP IP :
- Prevent selection of disabled input. Return error message.
- Add zone2x audio profile selection.
- Add Preset + and – commands.\
- Add Input + and – commands.
- Add StormXt status on OSD.
- Allow SP4 (Bryston) and Astral (Focal) upgradeability to StormAudio firmware via license.
- FAN monitoring Bug Fix on ISR and 2ISP.
Looks like all the speaker locations are selectable in a single layout too but of course you can only decode Atmos to 24 of them.new stormaudio firmware 4.60r0
