Open an ADM BWF or an IAMF file and hear it properly — through your rig, your headphones, or an iPhone on the train. The same app on every one, for £35.
Three devices, the same app, the same playback, the same sound. From the studio to on the go.
Not a mixing tool, and not trying to be. It opens the file, shows you what is in it, and plays it back exactly as it is.
Hear whether both versions tell the same story — without swapping files.
Add the stereo master beside your ADM and Lite lines the two up, so you can flip between them mid-playback. Compare checks the length, sample rate and channel count before you listen.
Set it up for the room you are in — a bright edit suite or a dark dub stage.
A new header puts both masters side by side, and a new footer keeps every control in one row. Light or dark as before, your colours on the waveform and each lane of the 7.1.4 view, and a switch between the spatial overview and every channel.
See a problem before you have to go hunting for it.
A meter bridge that grows with your layout — presets or your own custom rigs, up to 24 channels — in whatever colours you want to look at all day.
Know what is in the heights before you press play.
The 7.1.4 view runs the master through our own renderer and lays the fronts, sides, surrounds, heights and LFE out as their own lanes. It is a view only — monitoring out to 5.1, 9.1.6 or anything else is untouched.
Or switch to the spatial view.
One waveform, coloured by where the content sits from left to right.
Check the alternates without chasing a second deliverable.
Open an ADM BWF and switch programme, language and audio description straight from the file.

Play the exact .iamf or .mp4 you are about to upload — locked to the cut.
Eclipsa Audio™, also known as IAMF, is supported right up to the latest draft of the specification — Simple, Base and Base-Enhanced profiles, objects included. Switch mix presentations and run picture in sync at up to 4K. Playing IAMF files, answered →

What you hear on headphones is what the rig is doing.
Speakers, head-tracked binaural on the Orbit Studio HRTF, Apple Spatial Audio or a stereo fold-down — every one rendered by OrbitCore, our own immersive audio engine, from the same speaker feeds.
Catch a swapped pair or a dead top in seconds — not halfway through a session.
Routing and noise testing are built in: send each channel to the output it belongs on, then fire noise at one speaker at a time and listen for which one answers.
Your room, not the nearest preset.
Unusual room or a custom rig? Describe any layout up to 24 channels in OSLS, our open speaker-layout format, and Orbit Lite plays to it properly instead of folding it into something close enough. osls.io →

Bring it whatever you have.
Same engine, same fidelity. Lite plays the master; Orbit measures it.
You need to open a master, check it over and hear it properly — at the desk, on a rig, or on the move.

Five activations — use them on any mix of Macs, iPads and iPhones. It is the same licence either way, and on iPhone and iPad it is also sold in the app as Orbit Lite Duo.
iPhone and iPad only? Orbit Lite for iOS will be £14.99 — the same app, every iPhone and iPad on your account, not for Mac. It is not on the App Store yet; Lite Duo below covers the Mac today and every iPhone and iPad on your account when it lands.
You already own Orbit Lite for iOS. Upgrade to Lite Duo for the difference, in your currency — your current licence is marked as upgraded.
One licence covers every platform and activates on any five devices at once, so the requirements below are listed per device. They are floors — what the device needs, not what Lite uses. Its own footprint is a small fraction of them.
macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later · Apple Silicon · 8 GB RAM · 1 GB free
Intel Macs are not supported. Every Apple Silicon Mac clears the memory figure — it is what the Mac needs, not what Lite takes.
iOS or iPadOS 17 or later
We advise against Low Power Mode — it throttles the processing Lite relies on for glitch-free playback. Multichannel playback through a class-compliant audio interface needs an iPhone with USB-C.
Not confirmed yet
We expect Windows 10 or later, 64-bit, and will confirm the requirements before release.
Five devices per licence, in any combination
A Mac and an iPhone, an iPad and two Macs — any mix you like, and you can change your mind. Sign out on a device whenever you like and its activation frees up straight away, ready to use somewhere else.
Fourteen days, free, on both platforms. No card needed.
